You probably want data.items instead of data.search

I don't see any mention of a 'search' parameter under the "Response" section listed in their documentation. See the response properties here: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/search/list#response

Therefore, you can probably see some output if you console.log(data); instead of data.search

I recommend you check out Google's Javascript API Client Library. It might not be the best solution for you, but it's worth a try. Download on GitHub

Example using gapi.client.youtube.search.list:

// After the API loads, call a function to enable the search box.
function handleAPILoaded() {
  $('#search-button').attr('disabled', false);
}

// Search for a specified string.
function search() {
  var q = $('#query').val();
  var request = gapi.client.youtube.search.list({
    q: q,
    part: 'snippet'
  });

  request.execute(function(response) {
    var str = JSON.stringify(response.result);
    $('#search-container').html('<pre>' + str + '</pre>');
  });
}
