Javascript – How to get m3u8 playlist from yotube video link?

In the past, I was able to get m3u8 playlist links using Chrome developer tools while checking network tab.

I’ve tried to get it today, but I wasn’t able to find it. I’ve spent almost whole day trying to find it. I’ve read many articles but without any luck.

This is not working anymore. It doesn’t show anything. But as youtube-dl is still working, I am positive about it can be done somehow but hidden somewhere.

Anyone dealt with this recently?

    I’ve got same issue for about a month. I think it is hidden as base64 encoding under a response.

    You’ll need to use a combination of youtube’s private api and web scraping to get it.
