create playlist in Youtube api

Question

I\'ve looked at Youtube\'s documentation but I don\'t seem to understand how to create a playlist for the user specifically for ios. I know the user needs to sign in using O

Here is update!

Client library from Google was updated.

Documentation: YouTube Data API Overview

Playlist documentation: Playlists: insert

GitHub client library: Google APIs Client Library for Objective-C For REST

Here are pods need to be install:

pod 'GTMSessionFetcher'
pod 'GTMOAuth2'
pod 'GoogleAPIClientForREST/YouTube’

If we think that we have clientID, clientSecret and scope (read documentation) then we can create viewController for authentication:

GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch *viewController = [[GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch alloc]
                                                    initWithScope:scope
                                                    clientID:kMyClientID
                                                    clientSecret:kMyClientSecret
                                                    keychainItemName: nil
                                                    completionHandler:
                                                    ^(GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch *viewController, GTMOAuth2Authentication *auth, NSError *error) {
                                                        [self dismissViewControllerAnimated:NO completion:nil];
                                                        if (!error)
                                                        {
                                                            GTLRYouTubeService *youTubeService = [[GTLRYouTubeService alloc] init];
                                                            youTubeService.authorizer = auth;
                                                            [self createPlaylistWithTitle: @"Title" description: @"description" youtubeService: youtubeService];
                                                        }
                                                    }];
[self presentViewController:viewController animated:YES completion:nil];

Method that creates private playlist:

- (void)createPlaylistWithTitle:(NSString *)playlistTitle description:(NSString *)playlistDescription youtubeService:(GTLRYouTubeService *)youTubeService
{
    GTLRYouTube_Playlist *playlist = [[GTLRYouTube_Playlist alloc] init];

    GTLRYouTube_PlaylistSnippet *playlistSnippet = [[GTLRYouTube_PlaylistSnippet alloc] init];
    playlistSnippet.title = playlistTitle;
    playlistSnippet.descriptionProperty = playlistDescription;

    GTLRYouTube_PlaylistStatus *playlistStatus = [[GTLRYouTube_PlaylistStatus alloc] init];
    playlistStatus.privacyStatus = @"private";

    playlist.snippet = playlistSnippet;
    playlist.status = playlistStatus;

    GTLRYouTubeQuery_PlaylistsInsert *query = [GTLRYouTubeQuery_PlaylistsInsert queryWithObject:playlist part:@"snippet,status"];
    [youTubeService executeQuery:query completionHandler:^(GTLRServiceTicket *ticket, id object, NSError *error) {
        if (!error)
        {
            NSLog(@"response: %@", object);
        }
    }];
}
