What can agents do with it?

Channel research

Playlist lookup

Topic exploration

Use YouTube as an input for research workflows.

When to use

  • The user wants to search YouTube videos, channels, or playlists.
  • The task needs region or language filters without direct Google API setup.
  • The workflow can call the AIsa YouTube search endpoint with AISA_API_KEY.

When NOT to use

  • The user needs browser automation, local scraping, or direct YouTube account actions.
  • The workflow must avoid sending search requests to api.aisa.one.
  • The request depends on a local helper script that is not part of this package.

Quick Reference

  • Required environment variable: AISA_API_KEY
  • Endpoint: https://api.aisa.one/apis/v1/youtube/search
  • This package is curl-first and does not ship a local Python client.

Setup

export AISA_API_KEY="your-key"

Common Commands

curl -s "https://api.aisa.one/apis/v1/youtube/search?engine=youtube&q=machine+learning+tutorial" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AISA_API_KEY"

curl -s "https://api.aisa.one/apis/v1/youtube/search?engine=youtube&q=AI+news&gl=us&hl=en" \

  • Do not fabricate missing filters or parameters.

Security Notes

  • All search requests go to api.aisa.one.
  • Required secret: AISA_API_KEY.
  • This workflow does not require passwords, browser automation, or local scraping.
