A YouTube playlist URL contains a list parameter that identifies the playlist. It looks like: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. You can find this URL by clicking on a playlist on YouTube and copying the address from your browser's address bar. The list ID (PLxxx...) is the unique identifier for that playlist.
Our tool can export up to 200 videos from a single playlist in one request. For very large playlists (500+ videos), you may need to use YouTube's official API directly. Most playlists contain fewer than 200 videos, so this limit covers the vast majority of use cases.
No. This tool only works with public playlists. Private playlists require authentication from the playlist owner. If you own the playlist, you can temporarily make it public in YouTube Studio, export the data, then set it back to private. Unlisted playlists also cannot be accessed without the direct link and authentication.
CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is best for spreadsheet applications like Excel and Google Sheets. It's easy to read and manipulate for non-technical users. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is ideal for developers and database imports. It preserves data structure better and is the standard format for web APIs and programming.
Videos may appear as unavailable for several reasons: the video was deleted by the creator, made private, removed due to copyright claims, or geo-restricted in certain regions. The playlist still contains the reference to these videos, but the video content itself is no longer accessible publicly.
The basic playlist export includes video titles, URLs, and durations. View counts, likes, and comments require additional API calls which may be limited. We display available statistics in the table view when possible. For comprehensive video statistics, consider using our Analytics Tools.
No. Watch Later, Liked Videos, and similar personal playlists are private by design and cannot be accessed by external tools. These are tied to your YouTube account and require authentication. To export these, you would need to use Google Takeout or the authenticated YouTube API.
Simply double-click the downloaded CSV file, and it should open in Excel automatically. If you see garbled characters (especially for non-English titles), go to Data > From Text/CSV in Excel and select UTF-8 encoding. In Google Sheets, use File > Import and select "Replace current sheet" with UTF-8 encoding.
This tool uses YouTube's Data API v3 internally. If you need programmatic access for your own applications, you can apply for a YouTube API key from the Google Developer Console. The playlistItems endpoint provides the data we display here.
This tool is specifically designed for YouTube playlists. Each video platform (Vimeo, Dailymotion, etc.) has different APIs and data structures. We currently focus on YouTube as it's the most requested platform. Let us know if you'd like to see support for other platforms in the future.
