I need to be able to see specific viewing data from live and on demand video - by "channel," asset, current & aggregated. It would be nice to sort and break down by various factors, but how does one just see even the equivalent of most platform's 'view count' or current viewers? Resources I've found all point to very in depth analytics (analyze emotions, audio content, etc) but where are basic metrics located?

To achieve this, you can utilize various analytics tools and APIs provided by video platforms. Here are some popular platforms and how you can access their basic metrics:
- YouTube: You can use the YouTube Analytics API to access video metrics such as view counts, likes, dislikes, and more. For live streaming, the YouTube Live Streaming API provides real-time data about concurrent viewers. To get started, visit the YouTube API documentation:
