You can try with the channels endpoint passing the part as id, forUsername and key https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=id&forUsername=YOUR_USERNAME&key=YOUR_KEY

Edited:

For v2:

http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/frangarcia?v=2&alt=json and you will the channelId at json.entry.yt$channelId.$t

To get a YouTube channels [User ID] or [Channel ID], you simply need to navigate to the channels home page and look at the navigation bar of your browser and look for either:

1. "/channel/" or "/user/"
2. The text that follows and ends with the next "/" copy that text without the "/" and you have your Channels or Users ID.

Thanks for the Channel ID code and in case you don’t have the User ID code.

User ID Code: http://www.youtube.com/rss/user/[User_ID]/feed.rss which will translate in your browser to the relevant code, that is required to work. Unfortunately I can't seem to find any such code that work the same for channels with only Channel ID displaying and not the User ID which would have been great.

Check out Derral Eves "How to Find the RSS Feed for Your Youtube Channel": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DevXRvPa3dU, for a visual demonstration on how to find the youtube channels RSS Feed for a [User ID] and is where I found my information.
