[YouTube-API] Re: Retrieving YouTube insight data through API (Java)

Hello Mike,

The Insight URL link is expose on the profile feed, not the uploads
feed. Specifically, you should be setting FEED_URL to

http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/default

(you can use "default" instead of the channel name and the appropriate
channel name will automatically be inferred by the API, based on your
authentication credentials).

Cheers,
