👍

@gustavoja your last variant (as of now) is pretty great, but there's a catch. It doesn't work too well in some more greedy implementations of regular expression engines. More specifically, it silently fails to grab anything but the last ID when using it to scan a large body of text (eg. dumped page). The reason is that you have .* twice there. I think the first one (after the domain part) could be safely replaced by [^\s] which would still stay universal. I have no idea about the second one.

(?:\/|%3D|v=|vi=)([0-9A-z-_]{11})(?:[%#?&]|$)
has no .* 🤔

edit: Oh, I see what you mean. You missed this part: "scan a large body of text (eg. dumped page)" Unfortunately I don't see your version as guaranteeing it will grab just the right parts, for me. If I already had an URL, it would be a serious contender, but my inputs are a few kB of HTML.

@zec-github I looked at your Regex, is it possible to take Video Id without using that {11} character condition (?:\/|%3D|v=|vi=)([0-9A-z-_]{11})(?:[%#?&]|$) because in future the character length of the Id probably increase.

I made a JavaScript version of the video id extractor.
The full code is here.

function getYouTubeVideoIdByUrl(url) {
    const reg = /^(https?:)?(\/\/)?((www\.|m\.)?youtube(-nocookie)?\.com\/((watch)?\?(feature=\w*&)?vi?=|embed\/|vi?\/|e\/)|youtu.be\/)([\w\-]{10,20})/i
    const match = url.match(reg);
    if (match) {
        return match[9];
    } else {
        return null;
    }
}

ps. I removed 'ytscreeningroom' because it seems deprecated.

@TheaZane that one is the same as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKF0uaABJtc. For whatever reason you got the ? and = encoded.

Here’s what you get when you use Request Desktop Website on mobile. https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

Thanks, @EmuAnon34.

The same format also appears when you open on desktop a mobile url (m.youtube.com).

Thanks, @VladimirSlavik. Added.

Ah! Sorry for the confusion, that was not what I meant. Let me try again.

The m.y... mobile URL, when opened on a desktop browser, redirects to the www.y...?app=desktop... kind of URL.

At least, that's the part where I am certain. I never saw the format you added last.

Got it. Yeah, the https://m.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=dQw4w9WgXcQ turns out to be a valid URL, just not the final URL, since it redirects to youtube.com.

@rodrigoborgesdeoliveira @VladimirSlavik Pretty much every www. url has an m. equivalent.

add the redirect link format: https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=comments&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa0M2dGJkc09aekNLLUpmMGZlX21hTXFyOUE3QXxBQ3Jtc0tsVnNXSjJSMlo5YmpZdngxU2lDX2ZTeW9zSkR3aHdiNGd5V0JxYnRvV3JTOVBoN3pyd1I4QXcwRHdDTHpraUpJWV9fMGV6ZGgxQ3FDTVhQS2tfZDhmWEN4ajJoZEhkN015RXBoN0IwZ0Q4dzBfVi13QQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fgist.github.com%2Frodrigoborgesdeoliveira%2F987683cfbfcc8d800192da1e73adc486&stzid=Ugyy2ol4q0h3IPYWg_x4AaABAg

I made a little regex that matches the video ID in 99% of those examples. It's not bulletproof but probably good enough for most usecases.

/(?<=[=\/&])[a-zA-Z0-9_\-]{11}(?=[=\/&?#\n\r]|$)/

Be sure to improve on this if you can.

It can be tested here

Is there an example link with prefix https://youtube.com ? Seems like this might be missing from the examples

(And http://m.youtube.com?)

@asdfletcher-yesler, yes, there are a few examples in the list. Any http link should work with https and vice-versa.

A few of the youtube.com examples:

• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wtIMTCHWuI
• http://www.youtube.com/v/-wtIMTCHWuI?version=3&autohide=1
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZv2daTWRZU&feature=em-uploademail

m.youtube.com examples:

• https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=m_kbvp0_8tc
• https://m.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

Thanks for this list, it's come in handy for a couple of little projects 🙂

Are the URLs like this one valid?

https://www.youtube.com/user/IngridMichaelsonVEVO#p/a/u/1/QdK8U-VIH_o

In that, yes, they go to a You Tube user's channel, but I suspect everything after the # is ignored, so the video ID isn't used. In fact that anchor suffix could be anything at all, and it would be correct not to parse the video ID.

Likewise, I wonder about these URLs with a vi in place of a v. They all either go to a 404-not-found or are redirected to youtube.com's front page. Even if I insert an ID I know works with other URLs - so it's not simply the video has been taken down.

http://youtube.com/?vi=dQw4w9WgXcQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player
http://youtube.com/watch?vi=dQw4w9WgXcQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player
http://youtube.com/vi/dQw4w9WgXcQ?feature=youtube_gdata_player
http://youtube.com/vi/oTJRivZTMLs&feature=channel
http://youtube.com/watch?vi=oTJRivZTMLs&feature=channel

And URLs like this, with a v= parameter and no watch:

http://youtube.com/?v=XXXXXXXXXXX&feature=youtube_gdata_player
http://www.youtube.com/?v=XXXXXXXXXXX
http://www.youtube.com/?feature=player_embedded&v=XXXXXXXXXXX
http://youtube.com/?v=XXXXXXXXXXX&feature=channel
http://youtube.com/?feature=channel&v=XXXXXXXXXXX

I've not made an exhaustive test, but it does seem to find a lot of questionable URLs. It's quite possible these work for someone else, but has anyone evidence these URLs ever did link to a video?

I've tried a couple and it seems some of the weirder looking ones may or do not work, I've left them in my regex for potential matches if I ever find one in the wild and want to quickly get the ID

Thanks for reporting these @wu-lee. I'm going to do some tests over the weekend and leave some comments in the list for any of the links that don't work anymore. It might be the case that YouTube has deprecated these URLs.

I think these URLs with vi components may be for thumbnail images associated with videos. For example, this is one:

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XXXXXXXXXXX/default.jpg

Are query strings that use & first instead of ? valid?
because its on lines 118 and 119, and python's urllib parsing library did not recognise it and made the query strings part of the path.
eg:

from urllib import parse

components = parse.urlparse("https://youtu.be/oTJRivZTMLs&feature=channel")
print(components.path)

results in an output of

oTJRivZTMLs&feature=channel

while normally

from urllib import parse

components = parse.urlparse("https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?feature=youtube_gdata_player")
print(components.path)

results in just

dQw4w9WgXcQ

So either this is a mistake on the urls listed or a bug with the python urllib library

It's neither a mistake nor a bug. The &feature=channel is indeed part of the path, not a query string parameter. However, YouTube's url shortener service (the youtu.be) will do the job of parsing the path parameter into what youtube.com needs, and so it'll translate and redirect https://youtu.be/oTJRivZTMLs&feature=channel into something like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTJRivZTMLs&feature=channel&feature=youtu.be.

Here's a python regex that matches all of the links in this gist:

^((https?://(?:www\.)?(?:m\.)?youtube\.com))/((?:oembed\?url=https?%3A//(?:www\.)youtube.com/watch\?(?:v%3D)(?P<video_id_1>[\w\-]{10,20})&format=json)|(?:attribution_link\?a=.*watch(?:%3Fv%3D|%3Fv%3D)(?P<video_id_2>[\w\-]{10,20}))(?:%26feature.*))|(https?:)?(\/\/)?((www\.|m\.)?youtube(-nocookie)?\.com\/((watch)?\?(app=desktop&)?(feature=\w*&)?v=|embed\/|v\/|e\/)|youtu\.be\/)(?P<video_id_3>[\w\-]{10,20})

Python 3 implementation:

def get_youtube_video_id_by_url(url):
    regex = r"^((https?://(?:www\.)?(?:m\.)?youtube\.com))/((?:oembed\?url=https?%3A//(?:www\.)youtube.com/watch\?(?:v%3D)(?P<video_id_1>[\w\-]{10,20})&format=json)|(?:attribution_link\?a=.*watch(?:%3Fv%3D|%3Fv%3D)(?P<video_id_2>[\w\-]{10,20}))(?:%26feature.*))|(https?:)?(\/\/)?((www\.|m\.)?youtube(-nocookie)?\.com\/((watch)?\?(app=desktop&)?(feature=\w*&)?v=|embed\/|v\/|e\/)|youtu\.be\/)(?P<video_id_3>[\w\-]{10,20})"
    match = re.match(regex, url, re.IGNORECASE)
    if match:
        return (
            match.group("video_id_1")
            or match.group("video_id_2")
            or match.group("video_id_3")
        )
    else:
        return None

It matches everything in the gist, but can probably be improved upon for performance, so feel free to suggest improvements!
Just test them here first: https://regex101.com/

I've written a regexless version in python using its built-in url parser. Full code here. You will also notice the version that works with playlists. That one works with the following urls

    """
    components = parse.urlparse(url.replace("&", "?", 1) if "?" not in url else url)
    queries = parse.parse_qs(components.query)
    encoded_query_matches = {'u', 'url'}.intersection(set(queries.keys()))
    if 'v' in queries:
        return queries["v"][0]
    elif encoded_query_matches:
        return extract_video_id(parse.unquote(queries[encoded_query_matches.pop()][0]))
    elif components.netloc == "i.ytimg.com":

Hi,

recently links generated using the "Share" button under a video will contain some additional ?si= query parameter:

https://youtu.be/_UuD60EZGkg?si=eP5r-sAojFjjVYCY

Not sure what it is for, probably more tracking?

Oh, interesting. Thanks, @tacerus!

Hi,

https://youtu.be/_UuD60EZGkg?si=eP5r-sAojFjjVYCY

Not sure what it is for, probably more tracking?

Yea, most probably it's true.
And have you noticed that every time you share a URL, the tracking ID changes, even for the same video on the same device? If it's a tracking parameter, then it can track the sender and receiver of the YouTube URL. In short, Google can know who your close relatives and friends are. This is surely a messed up thing.

For those using javascript/typescript, I have a function and regex working for all combinations above plus youtube shorts:

export function getVideoIdFromYoutubeUrl(url: string) {
  const regex = /(?:youtu\.be\/|youtube\.com(?:\/(?:[^\/\n\s]+\/\S+\/|(?:v|e(?:mbed)?)\/|\S*?[?&]v=|shorts\/)|youtu\.be\/|embed\/|v\/|m\/|watch\?(?:[^=]+=[^&]+&)*?v=))([^"&?\/\s]{11})/gm;
  return regex.exec(url)[1];
}

export function validateYoutubeTestUrls() {
  const youtubeTestUrls: { key: number; value: string }[] = [
    { key: 1, value: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wtIMTCHWuI" },

For some reason, youtube blocks access to the site via the 11th one. It brings up the "our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network" message but with no captcha

Here is a java version of regex that matches all the urls the list:

(?i)^(?:https?://)?(?:(?:www|m)\.)?youtu(?:\.be|be(?:-nocookie)?\.com)/(?:(?:oembed|attribution_link)\?.+?(?:/|%2F)(?=watch))?(?:(?:watch)?(?:\?|%3F)|(?:vi?|live|e(?:mbed)?)/)?(?:(?:[\w\-]+(?:=|%3D)[^=&#]+(?:&(?:amp;)?|%26))*?vi?(?:=|%3D))?(?<id>[\w\-]+)(?:(?:(?:\?|%3F)|(?:&(?:amp;)?|%26)|(?:#|%23))[\w\-]+(?:=|%3D)[^=&#]+)*$

String QM = "(?:\\?|%3F)";
String EQ = "(?:=|%3D)";
String AS = "(?:&(?:amp;)?|%26)";
String OT = "(?:#|%23)";
String FS = "(?:/|%2F)";

String PARAM_HEAD = "(?:" + QM + "|" + AS + "|" + OT + ")";
String PARAM_KEY = "[\\w\\-]+";
String PARAM_VAL = "[^=&#]+";
String PARAM = "(?:" + PARAM_KEY + EQ + PARAM_VAL + ")";

Pattern p = Pattern.compile("(?i)^" +
        "(?:https?://)?" +
        "(?:(?:www|m)\\.)?" +
        "youtu(?:\\.be|be(?:-nocookie)?\\.com)/" +
        "(?:(?:oembed|attribution_link)\\?.+?" + FS + "(?=watch))?" +
        "(?:(?:watch)?" + QM + "|" + "(?:vi?|live|e(?:mbed)?)/)?" +
        "(?:(?:" + PARAM + AS + ")*?" + "(?:vi?" + EQ + "))?" +
        "(?<id>" + PARAM_KEY + ")" +
        "(?:" + PARAM_HEAD + PARAM + ")*" +
        "$");

@rodrigoborgesdeoliveira Please add links youtube.com/watch/U9t-slLl30E, youtube.com/shorts/U9t-slLl30E and youtube.com/live/U9t-slLl30E. Here's my RegExp that catches a wide spectrum of YT URLs → https://gist.github.com/Kaligula0/1ff5f4e2cf1f351daeca3450f71fdcb5
