video_ids = ["S_0hBL4ILAg", "a2skIq6hFiY"]

youtube_meta = YoutubeMetaData(api_key)
details = youtube_meta.load_data(video_ids)

This can be combined with the YoutubeTranscriptReader to provide more information for RAG AI inquiries.

from llama_index.readers.youtube_transcript import YoutubeTranscriptReader

video_ids = ["S_0hBL4ILAg", "a2skIq6hFiY"]  # Example video IDs
yt_metadata = YouTubeMetaData(api_key=api_key)
print("Testing YouTubeMetaData...")
print(yt_metadata.load_data(video_ids))

yt_meta_transcript = YouTubeMetaDataAndTranscript(api_key=api_key)
print("Testing YouTubeMetaDataAndTranscript...")
print(yt_meta_transcript.load_data(video_ids))
