Table Specific Information
Select
By default, SupportEnhancedSQL is set to true, and the following will be passed to YouTube Analytics if present. Other filters will be executed client side. If SupportEnhancedSQL is set to false, only the following filters will be honored.
By default, if no filters are specified, the CData Python Connector for YouTube Analytics will return all playlists for the channel owned by authenticated user.
YouTube Analytics allows only a subset of columns to be used as filter criteria. You can specify exactly one of the following columns: ChannelId or Id. Extra optional columns supported are PublishedAt, Language, OnBehalfOfContentOwner, and OnBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel.
A search against all channels in YouTube Analytics may be triggered by specifying one or more of SearchTerms, ForContentOwner, Region, SafeSearch, Rating and Rating to search all playlists.
All columns support the '=' operator. PublishedAt also supports these additional operators: '>', '>=', '<', and '<='.
Order by is supported for the Rating, Relevance, and Title columns.
SELECT * FROM PlayLists WHERE Id = 'abcdef123456' SELECT title FROM PlayLists WHERE PublishedAt >= '2016-01-01' ORDER BY Title LIMIT 10
Note: Ordering is not supported when specifying one of the colums used for searching playlists such as SearchTerms.
