Dailymotion
Dailymotion's API exposes video search, metadata, and embedding for its general-audience video platform, with a separate Partner API for organizations doing content management and monetization. Basic reads of public video data work with just an API key — no OAuth required — while write actions and partner-level features need OAuth2 and, for the Partner API, an approved partner account.
