Youtube API v3 in a .NET 2.0 application

I want to upload videos to Youtube from a .NET 2.0 application. Unfortunately, the Youtube API v3 requires .NET Framework 4.

Is there any way to interact with Youtube from a .NET 2.0 application, other than implementing the Youtube API manually?

Your statement is incorrect.

The YouTube API is a rest API and only requires that you can make a HTTP post or HTTP get in order to send information to the API.

The Google .net client library supports .net framework 4.5 and 4.0 the nugget package

PM> Install-Package Google.Apis.YouTube.v3

Is part of the Google .net client library.

That being said it is possible to use create a .Net framework 2.0 application that sends data to the YouTube API. You just have to code it yourself you cant use the Google .net client library.

Tip:

Don't be afraid of coding it yourself. The hardest part is the authentication. This should get you started Google 3 legged Oauth2 flow
