Can I export a YouTube playlist with hundreds of videos?

Yes. The tool supports playlists of any size, including large ones with hundreds or thousands of videos. YouTube's API returns data in pages, and the tool handles all the pagination automatically — you just wait for the export to complete and download your file.

What information is included in the exported file?

Each exported row includes the video title, direct YouTube URL, video duration, channel name, publish date, and view count (where available). You can choose which columns to include before downloading, so you only get the data you actually need.

Can I export a YouTube playlist to Excel?

Yes. The tool supports direct export to .xlsx format, which opens in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or any spreadsheet app. Each video gets its own row with clearly labeled columns. No manual copying or formatting needed.

Does this work on playlists I didn't create?

Yes, as long as the playlist is public. You can export playlists from any YouTube channel — your own or someone else's. Private and unlisted playlists are not accessible through the public YouTube data layer and cannot be exported with this tool.

Is there a way to back up my YouTube playlists before deleting my account or a channel?

This tool is one of the quickest ways to do exactly that. Paste each playlist URL, export it as a CSV or text file, and save the files locally. You'll have a complete record of every video title and URL in every playlist, even if the original YouTube content later becomes unavailable.

The Playlist Extraction Protocol

This tool gives you a clean exit. Paste any public YouTube playlist URL, choose your format — CSV, Excel, or plain text — and download the full list in seconds. Every video title, URL, duration, and channel name, in order, ready to use. Free, no account required.
