I'm using the YouTube Data API v3 with Ruby. In the channels.list (list_channels) method, I noticed that the forHandle filter doesn't seem to work. Is this by design?

Running the following code causes this error. youtube.list_channels(part, for_handle: 'handle_name')

unknown keyword unknown keyword

After inspecting the method's arguments, I found that it does not accept the for_handle keyword. youtube.method(:list_channels).parameters

inspection inspection

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

  • Have you tried passing that through the options Hash e.g. youtube.list_channels(part, options: {for_handle: 'handle_name'} ) it does look like this has been added as a keyword in the main branch if you wanted to install from there instead (Sourc) Commented Jun 17 at 13:13

The version of the Gem I had installed was 0.4.0, and since the for_handle filter was implemented in a later version, I wasn’t able to use it. https://rubygems.org/gems/google-apis-youtube_v3/versions/0.4.0

Updating the Gem to a newer version resolved the issue. https://rubygems.org/gems/google-apis-youtube_v3/versions/0.56.0

Thank you to @engineersmnky for the comment!
