[YouTube-API] Re: Getting Insight/Analytic CSV Zip with OAuth/OAuth2 API

Thanks for your reply. But I can't get an authorisation to download the zipped CSV files with the oauth(1) api.

Can someone give me any idea or solutions to download the CSV files with the oauth(1) API? My solution runs perfectly for getting user or video information, but the CSV links are unreadable.

Hello,

 The value of the token parameter in an Insight URL is opaque, and you
should never adjust it. Just used whatever's returned from the API.
