๐Ÿ“‹ Playlists and Posts

These tasks work with playlists, videos inside playlists, community posts, and comments under posts.

๐Ÿ“š Playlist Metadata Parsingโ€‹

The task works through YouTube API.

Input data:

  • Playlist โ€” URLs from 4_Playlists_Urls.txt.
  • Channel โ€” URLs from 2_Channels_Urls.txt; the template collects channel playlists.

Use this mode when you need a report about the playlists themselves: title, description, video count, and other available fields.

๐ŸŽž๏ธ Playlist Videos Parsingโ€‹

The task works through YouTube API.

Input data:

  • Playlist โ€” videos are collected from playlists in 4_Playlists_Urls.txt.
  • Channel โ€” videos are collected from channel playlists in 2_Channels_Urls.txt.

This mode is needed when you want the playlist contents, not only playlist metadata.

๐Ÿ“ Channel Posts Parsingโ€‹

The task works through InnerTube API. Input data is channels from 2_Channels_Urls.txt.

The result depends on whether the channel's community tab and posts are publicly available.

The task works through InnerTube API.

Input data:

  • Post โ€” comments are collected by URLs from 5_Posts_Urls.txt.

Leave a field empty if the filter is not needed.

โš ๏ธ Notesโ€‹
