I have read the documentation on YouTube - Analytics and Reporting APIs and I am able to extract analytics data being a channel owner or content owner. Is there an API to extract metrics about a video which I do not own in Youtube?

Using Youtube metrics requires authorization so I don't think that's entirely possible. But, if you just want to query about a random video's viewCount
, likeCount
, dislikeCount
, favoriteCount
, and commentCount
, you can use videos.list and provide statistics as the part parameter.

Tried the API in explorer. This helps. Thanks. – Jaison Feb 06 '18 at 16:46
