YouTube Playlist ID Extractor

The YouTube Playlist ID Extractor (On-Demand) is a simple, efficient, and privacy-focused Firefox extension designed to streamline your YouTube workflow. Have you ever needed a quick list of all the video IDs from a YouTube playlist for personal use, data analysis, or transferring content between services? Manually copying each ID can be a tedious and error-prone task. This extension automates that process, delivering a clean, organized list directly to your computer.

What It Does:
This extension allows you to effortlessly extract the unique video IDs from any YouTube playlist that is currently displayed in your browser. Whether you're on a dedicated playlist page (youtube.com/playlist?list=...) or watching a video where a playlist panel is active (youtube.com/watch?v=...&list=...), this tool will identify and collect all the video identifiers.

Why It's Useful:
The "YouTube Playlist ID Extractor (On-Demand)" is invaluable for a variety of users:
* Content Creators: Easily get lists of videos for channel management or cross-platform publishing.
* Researchers/Data Enthusiasts: Quickly gather data for analysis without manual transcription.
* Developers: Obtain video IDs for use with YouTube APIs or custom applications.
* Casual Users: Create personal backups of your favorite playlists, or transfer a list of songs to a different music management system.
* Organization: Generate a clear, plain-text reference of playlist contents for offline use.

How to Use It:
Operating on an "on-demand" basis, this extension ensures it only runs when you need it:
1. Navigate to any YouTube playlist page or a video watch page where a playlist is visible in the sidebar.
2. Click the "YouTube Playlist ID Extractor (On-Demand)" icon in your Firefox toolbar (usually located to the right of your address bar).
3. In the small popup that appears, click the prominent "Extract Video IDs" button.

Immediately upon clicking, the extension will scan the page, collect the video IDs, and automatically generate a plain text file (e.g., Youtubelist_ids.txt) which will be downloaded to your browser's default downloads folder. Each video ID is listed on a new line for maximum readability and ease of use.

Privacy First:
Your privacy is a top priority. This extension operates entirely locally within your browser. It does not collect any personal data, track your Browse habits, send information to external servers, or interact with any third-party services. The entire process of ID extraction and file generation happens directly on your device.

Streamline your interaction with YouTube playlists and gain control over your video data with this simple, effective, and secure tool.
