Category List for Youtube Videos (API)

Question

I was wondering if there is a list of available categories where videos can be uploaded to YouTube (programmatically, that is). I have found this but to be honest I don't know what part is supposed to be meaning.

Answer 1

See the documentation.

part can be either id or snippet (which includes the category names).

You also need to provide a regionCode (e.g. US) or the list of category IDs you want.

At the end of the documentation page there's a form where you can test it.
