Is there any tool/library/api (or anything at all) to categorize youtube videos

I am trying to categorize videos on Youtube e.g. Entertainment, Nature, Educational, etc etc. Because many Youtube channels don´t use helpful hashtags, any video would be hard to categorize. I am trying to create a filter where I watch YouTube videos only based on my mood /need and categorizing them would help. Is there any automatic way?

Solution

  • There is a YouTube API already that has this. Read through the documentation bellow for more details
