I am looking for a way how I can receive the YouTube channel ID from a channel name by the Google YouTube API, for example from ChrisDowningFitness in:
https://www.youtube.com/c/ChrisDowningFitness.
So far, I tried:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?key=MY_KEY&forUsername=ChrisDowningFitness&part=id;
however, this is only working for a user name, not the channel name.
Having a look at the documentation, I wasn't able to identify any parameter allowing me to search for a channel name.
Does anyone have an idea, how I can get this working?
