# YouTube Playlist Backup

Available here:
[**YouTube Playlist Backup**](https://jolantahuba.github.io/YT-Backup/)

## Features

### Private playlists

Playlist has to be **public** or **unlisted** in order to get the data.

## Setup (self-hosting)

Then, go to [js/config.js](https://github.com/jolantahuba/YT-Backup/blob/192c1de2aecd48a1f699adee499f9afa664890aa/js/config.js#L1) file and change `API_KEY` value to your generated key:  
`const API_KEY = 'your_api_key';`

## Technologies

## Inspiration
Personal needs.  
Created to never again wonder what's behind "Unavailable videos are hidden" in my YouTube playlist. :relaxed:
