I have a question about youtube javscript API.
I want to get aspectRatio of specified video not mine.
I have been found the information about aspectRatio property of contentDetails at getting-started-guide(https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/getting-started).
But I don't find this aspectRatio property when I access this (https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?id=7lCDEYXw3mM&part=snippet,contentDetails,statistics,status&key=API_KEY)
Can only videos owner select video's aspectRatio by fileDetails?
Thank you!

Yes. Only owners of the video are able to access the fileDetails
properties - that includes the aspectRatio
. If you try to make a videos.list request asking for fileDetails, you'll get this error response:
"message": "The request is not properly authorized to access video file or processing information. Note that the <code>fileDetails</code>, <code>processingDetails</code>, and <code>suggestions</code> parts are only available to that videos owner."
