Find the RSS feed address of a Youtube playlist

·219 words·2 mins

To get the RSS feed of a YouTube playlist, follow these steps:

  1. Find the Playlist ID:

    • Go to the YouTube playlist page.
    • In the URL, copy the text after list=. This is your playlist ID.

  2. Construct the RSS Feed URL:

    • Use the following format for the RSS feed URL: https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?playlist_id=
    • Paste the playlist ID after playlist_id=.

  3. Example:

    • If your playlist ID is PL8dPuuaLjXtNgK6MZucdYldNkMybYIHKR, the RSS feed URL would be:
      https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?playlist_id=PL8dPuuaLjXtNgK6MZucdYldNkMybYIHKR

  4. Note: YouTube limits the RSS feed to the latest 15 videos. If you encounter issues or if the feed doesn’t work as expected, consider using third-party tools like RSS.app to generate the feed[4][8].

  5. Generating RSS Feed for a YouTube Channel:

    • Getting a channel’s RSS feed is trickier than playlists because you need the channel ID rather than the visible @channel-name
    • The channel ID is typically hidden in the page’s source code
    • As an easier alternative, you can use Pesky Moe’s tool which extracts the correct feed URL:
      https://ytrss.pesky.moe
    • Simply paste your channel URL and it will generate the proper RSS feed URL

Alternatively, you can use third-party services like RSS.app to create RSS feeds from YouTube playlists by simply copying and pasting the YouTube URL into their tool[4][8].
