Getting the public playlists of an other user with API v3 client library

Question

I want to get the public playlists of an other user, so not of the logged in user. I checked the v3 Javascript client library and it seems to me it can only retrieve the playlist of the current authenticated user. Is it true? Or am I missing something?

Answer 1

You will do it the same way you do the authorized user.

First you'll call channels->list with id or forUsername and get uploads playlist id.

Then with playlistItems->list with the playlistId, you'll get the list items.

Also, here's the javascript client library.
