There is something going wrong with the YouTube Data API. On the Deverloper Console under Search: list it won't work if you are providing channelId. It will always return 0 results. I've tried this with several other channels who are live streaming right now.

There are several other people posting about this same issue. So we are not the only ones experiencing this issue. Google needs to fix something. Hopefully soon!

  • yes, its right so somehow we need to do workaround with other parameter of api. – Roshan Sep 21 '19 at 01:17
  • @Roshan it looks like someone came up with [a pretty basic workaround](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57930207/youtube-data-api-no-longer-returns-active-live-streams-from-search-list/57982357#comment102424769_57934217) but it won't work for every person's use case. – terryoboy Sep 24 '19 at 15:44
