bind(id, part, onBehalfOfContentOwner=None, onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel=None, streamId=None)
Binds a YouTube broadcast to a stream or removes an existing binding between a broadcast and a stream. A broadcast can only be bound to one video stream, though a video stream may be bound to more than one broadcast.
Controls the settings for a slate that can be displayed in the broadcast stream.
delete(id, onBehalfOfContentOwner=None, onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel=None)
Deletes a broadcast.
insert(part, body, onBehalfOfContentOwner=None, onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel=None)
Creates a broadcast.
Returns a list of YouTube broadcasts that match the API request parameters.
list_next(previous_request, previous_response)
Retrieves the next page of results.
Changes the status of a YouTube live broadcast and initiates any processes associated with the new status. For example, when you transition a broadcast's status to testing, YouTube starts to transmit video to that broadcast's monitor stream. Before calling this method, you should confirm that the value of the status.streamStatus property for the stream bound to your broadcast is active.
update(part, body, onBehalfOfContentOwner=None, onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel=None)
Updates a broadcast. For example, you could modify the broadcast settings defined in the liveBroadcast resource's contentDetails object.
bind(id, part, onBehalfOfContentOwner=None, onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel=None, streamId=None)
Binds a YouTube broadcast to a stream or removes an existing binding between a broadcast and a stream. A broadcast can only be bound to one video stream, though a video stream may be bound to more than one broadcast.
Args:
id: string, The id parameter specifies the unique ID of the broadcast that is being bound to a video stream. (required)
part: string, The part parameter specifies a comma-separated list of one or more liveBroadcast resource properties that the API response will include. The part names that you can include in the parameter value are id, snippet, contentDetails, and status. (required)
onBehalfOfContentOwner: string, Note: This parameter is intended exclusively for YouTube content partners.
The onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter indicates that the request's authorization credentials identify a YouTube CMS user who is acting on behalf of the content owner specified in the parameter value. This parameter is intended for YouTube content partners that own and manage many different YouTube channels. It allows content owners to authenticate once and get access to all their video and channel data, without having to provide authentication credentials for each individual channel. The CMS account that the user authenticates with must be linked to the specified YouTube content owner.
onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel: string, This parameter can only be used in a properly authorized request. Note: This parameter is intended exclusively for YouTube content partners.
The onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel parameter specifies the YouTube channel ID of the channel to which a video is being added. This parameter is required when a request specifies a value for the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter, and it can only be used in conjunction with that parameter. In addition, the request must be authorized using a CMS account that is linked to the content owner that the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter specifies. Finally, the channel that the onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel parameter value specifies must be linked to the content owner that the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter specifies.
This parameter is intended for YouTube content partners that own and manage many different YouTube channels. It allows content owners to authenticate once and perform actions on behalf of the channel specified in the parameter value, without having to provide authentication credentials for each separate channel.
streamId: string, The streamId parameter specifies the unique ID of the video stream that is being bound to a broadcast. If this parameter is omitted, the API will remove any existing binding between the broadcast and a video stream.

onBehalfOfContentOwner: string, Note: This parameter is intended exclusively for YouTube content partners.
The onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter indicates that the request's authorization credentials identify a YouTube CMS user who is acting on behalf of the content owner specified in the parameter value. This parameter is intended for YouTube content partners that own and manage many different YouTube channels. It allows content owners to authenticate once and get access to all their video and channel data, without having to provide authentication credentials for each individual channel. The CMS account that the user authenticates with must be linked to the specified YouTube content owner.
onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel: string, This parameter can only be used in a properly authorized request. Note: This parameter is intended exclusively for YouTube content partners.
The onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel parameter specifies the YouTube channel ID of the channel to which a video is being added. This parameter is required when a request specifies a value for the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter, and it can only be used in conjunction with that parameter. In addition, the request must be authorized using a CMS account that is linked to the content owner that the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter specifies. Finally, the channel that the onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel parameter value specifies must be linked to the content owner that the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter specifies.
This parameter is intended for YouTube content partners that own and manage many different YouTube channels. It allows content owners to authenticate once and perform actions on behalf of the channel specified in the parameter value, without having to provide authentication credentials for each separate channel.

transition(broadcastStatus, id, part, onBehalfOfContentOwner=None, onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel=None)
Changes the status of a YouTube live broadcast and initiates any processes associated with the new status. For example, when you transition a broadcast's status to testing, YouTube starts to transmit video to that broadcast's monitor stream. Before calling this method, you should confirm that the value of the status.streamStatus property for the stream bound to your broadcast is active.
Args:

Allowed values
complete - The broadcast is over. YouTube stops transmitting video.
live - The broadcast is visible to its audience. YouTube transmits video to the broadcast's monitor stream and its broadcast stream.
testing - Start testing the broadcast. YouTube transmits video to the broadcast's monitor stream. Note that you can only transition a broadcast to the testing state if its contentDetails.monitorStream.enableMonitorStream property is set to true.
id: string, The id parameter specifies the unique ID of the broadcast that is transitioning to another status. (required)
part: string, The part parameter specifies a comma-separated list of one or more liveBroadcast resource properties that the API response will include. The part names that you can include in the parameter value are id, snippet, contentDetails, and status. (required)
onBehalfOfContentOwner: string, Note: This parameter is intended exclusively for YouTube content partners.
The onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter indicates that the request's authorization credentials identify a YouTube CMS user who is acting on behalf of the content owner specified in the parameter value. This parameter is intended for YouTube content partners that own and manage many different YouTube channels. It allows content owners to authenticate once and get access to all their video and channel data, without having to provide authentication credentials for each individual channel. The CMS account that the user authenticates with must be linked to the specified YouTube content owner.
onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel: string, This parameter can only be used in a properly authorized request. Note: This parameter is intended exclusively for YouTube content partners.
The onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel parameter specifies the YouTube channel ID of the channel to which a video is being added. This parameter is required when a request specifies a value for the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter, and it can only be used in conjunction with that parameter. In addition, the request must be authorized using a CMS account that is linked to the content owner that the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter specifies. Finally, the channel that the onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel parameter value specifies must be linked to the content owner that the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter specifies.
This parameter is intended for YouTube content partners that own and manage many different YouTube channels. It allows content owners to authenticate once and perform actions on behalf of the channel specified in the parameter value, without having to provide authentication credentials for each separate channel.

update(part, body, onBehalfOfContentOwner=None, onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel=None)
Updates a broadcast. For example, you could modify the broadcast settings defined in the liveBroadcast resource's contentDetails object.
Args:
part: string, The part parameter serves two purposes in this operation. It identifies the properties that the write operation will set as well as the properties that the API response will include.
The part properties that you can include in the parameter value are id, snippet, contentDetails, and status.
Note that this method will override the existing values for all of the mutable properties that are contained in any parts that the parameter value specifies. For example, a broadcast's privacy status is defined in the status part. As such, if your request is updating a private or unlisted broadcast, and the request's part parameter value includes the status part, the broadcast's privacy setting will be updated to whatever value the request body specifies. If the request body does not specify a value, the existing privacy setting will be removed and the broadcast will revert to the default privacy setting. (required)
body: object, The request body. (required)
