Batch Delete Videos From YouTube Favorites Playlist -


i trying batch delete videos user youtube favorites using youtube v2 api. (see https://developers.google.com/youtube/2.0/developers_guide_protocol_batch_processing)

posting videos favorites in batch works nicely; , can remove single videos favorites without problem (this rules out problem authentication).

my request body follows, videoid1 , videoid2 <yt:favoriteid>ids found in corresponding video xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>  <feed xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/atom' xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' xmlns:batch='http://schemas.google.com/gdata/batch' xmlns:yt='http://gdata.youtube.com/schemas/2007'>     <batch:operation type="delete"/>     <entry><id>videoid1</id></entry>     <entry><id>videoid2</id></entry> </feed> 

this response however, userid ofcourse userid of user , batchid batchid given service:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>  <feed xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/atom'>    <id>https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/userid/favorites/batch/batchid</id>    <updated>2014-01-31t14:50:54.948z</updated>    <category scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind' term='http://gdata.youtube.com/schemas/2007#favorite'/>    <title>batch feed</title>    <entry xmlns:batch='http://schemas.google.com/gdata/batch'>              <id>videoid1</id>        <updated>2014-01-31t14:50:54.948z</updated>        <title>error</title>        <content>invalid entry id/uri</content>        <batch:status code='400' reason='invalid entry id/uri'/>    </entry>    <entry xmlns:batch='http://schemas.google.com/gdata/batch'>        <id>videoid2</id>        <updated>2014-01-31t14:50:54.949z</updated>        <title>error</title>        <content>invalid entry id/uri</content>        <batch:status code='400' reason='invalid entry id/uri'/>     </entry> </feed> 

it states invalid entry id/uri videos try remove, while when remove them singular delete request same id, works.

is batch deleting videos favorites not supported, or missing something?

i've got work, question , answer: batch deleting videos using youtube api , httpwebrequest

the trick using user userid instead of default, , use complete video url id.

the batch url looks this:

https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/userid/favorites/batch?v=2&alt=json 

the request looks this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>  <feed xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/atom' xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' xmlns:batch='http://schemas.google.com/gdata/batch' xmlns:yt='http://gdata.youtube.com/schemas/2007'>     <batch:operation type="delete"/>     <entry>         <id>https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/userid/favorites/videoid1?v=2</id>     </entry>     <entry>         <id>https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/userid/favorites/videoid2?v=2</id>     </entry> </feed>
