FAQs

How do I extract video links from a YouTube playlist?

Paste its public playlist link, complete verification if requested, and select Extract playlist. The result contains the available video URLs in playlist order.

Can I export a YouTube playlist to CSV?

Yes. Select CSV after extraction. The export includes position, video ID, title, channel, duration in seconds, URL, and availability.

Are JSON and TXT playlist exports available?

Yes. JSON preserves structured playlist and entry data. TXT contains a readable ordered list of video titles and URLs.

Does this tool download the videos?

No. It extracts playlist information. Use the separate YouTube Playlist Downloader to submit selected videos for video or audio download.

Can I extract a private playlist?

No. The playlist must be accessible without signing in. This tool does not request account cookies or bypass access restrictions.

What happens to private or deleted entries?

They remain in the extracted list when YouTube exposes them, with unavailable status. Metadata may be missing, and the downloader does not bypass their restrictions.

How many playlist videos can I export?

Up to 500 source entries can be extracted. A notice appears when additional entries exceed this limit.

Why might titles, channels, or durations be missing?

Playlist metadata depends on what the source returns. Missing fields are left blank; the tool does not invent details or separately open each video.
