Set proxy for Google.Apis.YouTube.v3

Question

I have the following bit of code to make a call to the

YouTubeService service = new YouTubeService(new BaseClientService.Initializer()
{
    ApiKey = AppSetting         


        

Answer 1

To get around this I had to make a webrequest to the url and map the result back to the VideoListResponse object:

try
{
    Uri api = new Uri(string.Format("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?id={0}&key={1}&part=snippet,statistics", videoIds, AppSettings.Variables.YouTube_APIKey));
    WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(api);

    WebProxy proxy = new WebProxy(AppSettings.Variables.ProxyAddress, AppSettings.Variables.ProxyPort);
    proxy.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(AppSettings.Variables.ProxyUsername, AppSettings.Variables.ProxyPassword, AppSettings.Variables.ProxyDomain);
    request.Proxy = proxy;

    using (HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse())
    {
        using (StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
        {
            return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<VideoListResponse>(streamReader.ReadToEnd());
        }
    }
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    ErrorLog.LogError(ex, "Video entity processing error: ");
}
