When accessing a YouTube Music playlist, the API returns 404. I believe this to be a bug, because the playlist returns in Google's API Explorer. Can someone please look into this?

Example Pop Hotlist Playlist:

GET https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?part=snippet&maxResults=50&playlistId=RDCLAK5uy_kmPRjHDECIcuVwnKsx2Ng7fyNgFKWNJFs&key=YOUR_API_KEY

Example curl command for above playlist:

curl -i -G -d "part=snippet&maxResults=50&playlistId=RDCLAK5uy_kmPRjHDECIcuVwnKsx2Ng7fyNgFKWNJFs&key=YOUR_API_KEY" https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems

Returns:

u'error': u'code': 404,
 u'errors': [u'domain': u'youtube.playlistItem',
 u'location': u'playlistId',
 u'locationType': u'parameter',
 u'message': u'The playlist identified with the requests <code>playlistId</code> parameter cannot be found.',
 u'reason': u'playlistNotFound'],
 u'message': u'The playlist identified with the requests <code>playlistId</code> parameter cannot be found.'}

I was able to do it using the example they give Explorer using the play list id they gave PLBCF2DAC6FFB574DE I was also able to do it with one of my own play lists.

curl -i -G -d "part=snippet%2CcontentDetails&maxResults=25&playlistId=PLBCF2DAC6FFB574DE&key=AIzaSyCOEeKl4YlWZ_6s-t_9Ru20S8YGAGKj1" https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems

Your Play list id

I find the error message playlistNotFound very descriptive here. When i try to use your play list id RDCLAK5uy_kmPRjHDECIcuVwnKsx2Ng7fyNgFKWNJFs I get

 "error": 
 "errors": [
 
 "domain": "youtube.playlistItem",
 "reason": "playlistNotFound",
 "message": "The playlist identified with the requests <code>playlistId</code> parameter cannot be found.",
 "locationType": "parameter",
 "location": "playlistId"
 
 ],
 "code": 404,
 "message": "The playlist identified with the requests <code>playlistId</code> parameter cannot be found."
 

because thats not a valid play list id. I suggest that you check again and ensure that you have copied your play list id correctly
