How It Works

The Get Videos node retrieves information about videos in a YouTube playlist. When executed, the node:

1. Validates the required input (Playlist URL)
2. Creates a Playlist object using the provided URL
3. Extracts the playlist title and video URLs
4. Returns the information as a JSON object

Requirements

• A valid YouTube playlist URL
• Internet connection to access YouTube

Error Handling

The node will return specific errors in the following cases:

• Empty Video URL
• Invalid YouTube playlist URL
• Playlist not found
• Network connectivity issues
• YouTube access restrictions

Usage Notes

• The Video URL should be a full YouTube playlist URL (e.g., https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAYLIST_ID)
• The node currently only supports retrieving videos from playlists
• The output contains the playlist title and an array of video URLs
• Each video URL in the array is a full YouTube watch URL
• The response is formatted as a JSON object for easy parsing
• This node is useful for processing all videos in a playlist
• Future versions may support retrieving videos from channels
• The number of videos retrieved depends on the playlist size
