# YouTube video streams info

✅ Features: Automatically returns decrypted playback URLs for all formats. Takes video id and video url, all optional. Served by TikHub.

✅ Features:
- **Automatically returns decrypted playback URLs for all formats**
- No need to call get_signed_stream_url endpoint separately
- Get all quality URLs in one request

Purpose:
- Get all quality format information and playback URLs for YouTube video
- Returns standard formats (merged audio/video) and adaptive formats (separate audio/video)
- Suitable for scenarios that need to display all quality options

Parameters:
- video_id: Video ID (recommended)
- video_url: Full video URL (optional, ignored if video_id is provided)

Returns:
- Basic video info (title, author, duration, view count, etc.)
- formats: Standard format streams (audio and video combined)
- adaptive_formats: Adaptive format streams (video-only or audio-only)
  - Each format contains: itag, mime_type, quality label, resolution, bitrate, etc.
  - ✅ **url field contains decrypted playback URL, ready to use**
  - has_signature=false means URL is decrypted and ready to play
- hls_manifest_url: HLS manifest URL (if available)
- dash_manifest_url: DASH manifest URL (if available)
- available_qualities: List of all available quality levels
- expires_in_seconds: URL expiration time (about 6 hours = 21600 seconds)

Difference from get_video_streams:
- **get_video_streams**: URLs are null, need to use get_signed_stream_url (two-step method)
- **get_video_streams_v2 (this endpoint)**: Automatically returns all decrypted URLs (one-step solution)

Notes:
- Playback URLs expire after ~6 hours, use them promptly
- High-quality videos (720p+) usually require separate download and merge of audio/video streams

## Published example

This is the provider tool’s published example. Replace example values with the user’s requested inputs, respecting the schema; do not execute an example merely to test a connection.

  "input": {

## Execute and retrieve

Inspect again before execution, explain the price and obtain the required authority. Use MCP run_tool or POST /v1/run with this tool ID, valid input and an idempotency key. Save the returned run ID and follow the actual state. If Agentik answers that the tool is temporarily unavailable, do not retry it blindly; use discovery to propose an alternative.

A partial or uncertain result can still have consumed provider resources. Consult [billing](/docs/billing.md), [idempotency](/docs/idempotency.md) and [asynchronous results](/docs/async.md).
