YouTube-Web-V2-API

获取视频详情 V2/Get video information V2

Changed on

[中文]

用途:

  • 获取 YouTube 视频详情(备用获取路径,字段提取更稳定)
  • 适用场景: v1 /get_video_info 返回 title/author 为空时 (年龄限制、未公开、部分音乐视频等)

下载与代理:

  • 调用本详情接口无需自带代理,也不接受 proxy_url;原始数据中即使有媒体 URL, 也不保证可从不同公网出口下载。
  • 下载请使用 get_video_streams_v3:首选固定出口或粘性会话的美国住宅代理, 或固定公网出口的静态住宅/ISP 代理;数据中心代理不作为首选。 美国并非强制地区,地区受限视频应选择允许访问的国家/地区并保持同一下载出口。

参数详解:

📌 必选参数(二选一):

video_id (string)

  • 作用: 视频ID
  • 示例: "dQw4w9WgXcQ"

video_url (string)

  • 作用: 视频URL(如果提供 video_id 则忽略此参数)
  • 示例: "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ"

⚙️ 可选参数:

need_format (bool, 可选)

  • 作用: 是否返回清洗后的字段字典
  • 默认值: True
  • True: 返回精简的字段字典(title / author / view_count 等)
  • False: 返回完整原始数据

与 get_video_info 的区别:

  • get_video_info: 字段更全(含 like_count_text / merchandise / endscreen / super_title / subscriber_count_text / is_verified 等),但部分场景下字段提取不稳定
  • get_video_info_v2 (本接口): 核心字段更稳定,但 v1 独有的部分附加字段不再返回

返回字段(need_format=True):

  • 视频: video_id / video_url / embed_url / title / description
  • 频道: author / channel_name / channel_id / channel_handle / channel_url / channel_follower_count / channel_is_verified
  • 时间与状态: publish_date / published_at / upload_date / length_seconds / duration_string / availability / live_status / age_limit
  • 互动与分类: view_count / like_count / comment_count / rating / keywords / categories / language
  • 媒体辅助: thumbnail_url / thumbnails / playability_status / captions / caption_count / chapters

[English]

Purpose:

  • Fetch YouTube video details via an alternative extraction path (more stable field extraction)
  • Use when v1 /get_video_info returns empty title/author (age-gated, unlisted, music videos, etc.)

Download and proxy:

  • No proxy is required from you to call this detail endpoint, and it does not accept proxy_url. Media URLs in raw data, if any, are not guaranteed to download from a different public exit.
  • For downloading, use get_video_streams_v3. Prefer a US residential proxy with a fixed exit or sticky session, or a static residential/ISP proxy with a fixed public exit; datacenter proxies are not the first choice. The US is not mandatory: choose a region where the video is available and keep the same actual exit for downloading.

Parameters:

📌 Required (one of):

video_id (string) - Video ID, e.g. "dQw4w9WgXcQ"

video_url (string) - Full video URL (ignored if video_id provided)

⚙️ Optional:

need_format (bool) - Whether to return cleaned payload. Default True

Difference from get_video_info:

  • get_video_info: Richer field set (like_count_text / merchandise / endscreen / super_title / subscriber_count_text / is_verified, etc.), but less stable extraction in some scenarios
  • get_video_info_v2 (this): More stable core fields, drops v1-only ancillary fields

Return fields (need_format=True):

Video identity, channel details, publish and duration values, availability and live status, engagement counts, categories, thumbnails, captions, and chapters.
