Watch Later Videos Operations

Learn how to add a video to your watch later list and retrieve a list of all videos using Dailymotion Data API.

Sometimes we find a video that matches our interest, but we don't want to watch it at the moment, and we add it to the watch later list. Dailymotion Data API offers to add a video to watch later list and retrieve a list functionality by using the following endpoints:

  • Add a video to watch later list: {base_url}/me/watchlater/video_Id

  • Retrieve a list of watch later videos: {base_url}/me/watchlater

Add a video to watch later list

In this section, we'll add some videos to our watch later list using {base_url}/me/watchlater/video_Id endpoint. Here /me represents the authenticated user, and alternatively, this endpoint can also be called as {base_url}/user/user_Id/watchlater/video_Id. Here user_Id represents the ID of the authenticated user. We'll use the HTTP POST method to achieve this functionality.

Request parameters

This endpoint takes two required parameters — user_Id and video_Id. Below are given some sample video IDs, and we add the first one to the watch later list.
