http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/6L3ZvIMwZFM?version=3&hl=en_US&rel=0

For some reason, youtube blocks access to the site via the 11th one. It brings up the "our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network" message but with no captcha

Here is a java version of regex that matches all the urls the list:

(?i)^(?:https?://)?(?:(?:www|m)\.)?youtu(?:\.be|be(?:-nocookie)?\.com)/(?:(?:oembed|attribution_link)\?.+?(?:/|%2F)(?=watch))?(?:(?:watch)?(?:\?|%3F)|(?:vi?|live|e(?:mbed)?)/)?(?:(?:[\w\-]+(?:=|%3D)[^=&#]+(?:&(?:amp;)?|%26))*?vi?(?:=|%3D))?(?<id>[\w\-]+)(?:(?:(?:\?|%3F)|(?:&(?:amp;)?|%26)|(?:#|%23))[\w\-]+(?:=|%3D)[^=&#]+)*$

String QM = "(?:\\?|%3F)";
String EQ = "(?:=|%3D)";
String AS = "(?:&(?:amp;)?|%26)";
String OT = "(?:#|%23)";
String FS = "(?:/|%2F)";

String PARAM_HEAD = "(?:" + QM + "|" + AS + "|" + OT + ")";
String PARAM_KEY = "[\\w\\-]+";
String PARAM_VAL = "[^=&#]+";
String PARAM = "(?:" + PARAM_KEY + EQ + PARAM_VAL + ")";

Pattern p = Pattern.compile("(?i)^" +
        "(?:https?://)?" +
        "(?:(?:www|m)\\.)?" +
        "youtu(?:\\.be|be(?:-nocookie)?\\.com)/" +
        "(?:(?:oembed|attribution_link)\\?.+?" + FS + "(?=watch))?" +
        "(?:(?:watch)?" + QM + "|" + "(?:vi?|live|e(?:mbed)?)/)?" +
        "(?:(?:" + PARAM + AS + ")*?" + "(?:vi?" + EQ + "))?" +
        "(?<id>" + PARAM_KEY + ")" +
        "(?:" + PARAM_HEAD + PARAM + ")*" +
        "$");

IOUtils.readLines(new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
                new URL("https://gist.githubusercontent.com/rodrigoborgesdeoliveira/987683cfbfcc8d800192da1e73adc486/raw/b15ee49a60d42df67b0d6383517ef3b57e25c9c3/ActiveYouTubeURLFormats.txt")

        .forEachOrdered(m -> System.out.printf("%-15s %s%n", m.group("id"), m.group()));

@ZGorlock: doesn't match music.youtube.com/watch?v=U9t-slLl30E, youtube.com/watch/U9t-slLl30E, youtube.com/shorts/sMbxjePPmkw and attribution_links (youtube.com/attribution_link?a=JdfC0C9V6ZI&u=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DEhxJLojIE_o%26feature%3Dshare and youtube.com/attribution_link?a=8g8kPrPIi-ecwIsS&u=/watch%3Fv%3DyZv2daTWRZU%26feature%3Dem-uploademail). 🤔

@rodrigoborgesdeoliveira Please add links youtube.com/watch/U9t-slLl30E, youtube.com/shorts/U9t-slLl30E and youtube.com/live/U9t-slLl30E. Here's my RegExp that catches a wide spectrum of YT URLs → https://gist.github.com/Kaligula0/1ff5f4e2cf1f351daeca3450f71fdcb5

Thanks, @Kaligula0!

Thanks @rodrigoborgesdeoliveira!

Here is a JavaScript version - it returns the 13 IDs found in the list you posted

const delParms = ['a', 'app', 'list', 'feature', 'rel', 'si'];

const ids = new Set(
  list.map(url => {
    // Normalize URL
    url = url.replace(/(attribution_link|uploademail|youtube-nocookie)/gi, 'x');
    // Parse URL
    let urlObject = new URL(url);
    // Check for embedded URL and parse it if present
    const embed = urlObject.searchParams.get('url');
    if (embed) urlObject = new URL(embed);
    // Extract 'v' parameter if present
    const v = urlObject.searchParams.get('v');
    if (v) return v;
    // Remove unwanted parameters
    delParms.forEach(parm => urlObject.searchParams.delete(parm));
    // Convert URL to string and replace encoded '='
    url = urlObject.toString().replace(/%3D/gi, '=');
    // Extract ID from URL
    const idMatch = url.match(/[\-_a-z0-9]{10,15}/i);
    const id = idMatch ? idMatch[0] : `No: ${url}`;
    return id;
  })
);
console.log(ids);

Here's a python regex that matches all of the links in this gist:

^((https?://(?:www\.)?(?:m\.)?youtube\.com))/((?:oembed\?url=https?%3A//(?:www\.)youtube.com/watch\?(?:v%3D)(?P<video_id_1>[\w\-]{10,20})&format=json)|(?:attribution_link\?a=.*watch(?:%3Fv%3D|%3Fv%3D)(?P<video_id_2>[\w\-]{10,20}))(?:%26feature.*))|(https?:)?(\/\/)?((www\.|m\.)?youtube(-nocookie)?\.com\/((watch)?\?(app=desktop&)?(feature=\w*&)?v=|embed\/|v\/|e\/)|youtu\.be\/)(?P<video_id_3>[\w\-]{10,20})

Python 3 implementation:

def get_youtube_video_id_by_url(url):
    regex = r"^((https?://(?:www\.)?(?:m\.)?youtube\.com))/((?:oembed\?url=https?%3A//(?:www\.)youtube.com/watch\?(?:v%3D)(?P<video_id_1>[\w\-]{10,20})&format=json)|(?:attribution_link\?a=.*watch(?:%3Fv%3D|%3Fv%3D)(?P<video_id_2>[\w\-]{10,20}))(?:%26feature.*))|(https?:)?(\/\/)?((www\.|m\.)?youtube(-nocookie)?\.com\/((watch)?\?(app=desktop&)?(feature=\w*&)?v=|embed\/|v\/|e\/)|youtu\.be\/)(?P<video_id_3>[\w\-]{10,20})"
    match = re.match(regex, url, re.IGNORECASE)
    if match:
        return (
            match.group("video_id_1")
            or match.group("video_id_2")
            or match.group("video_id_3")
        )
    else:
        return None

It matches everything in the gist, but can probably be improved upon for performance, so feel free to suggest improvements! Just test them here first: https://regex101.com/

Thank you for sharing this snippet. Working great.

Just FYI both these functions do not work for URLs in the following format.

For those using javascript/typescript, I have a function and regex working for all combinations above plus youtube shorts:

export function getVideoIdFromYoutubeUrl(url: string) {
  const regex = /(?:youtu\.be\/|youtube\.com(?:\/(?:[^\/\n\s]+\/\S+\/|(?:v|e(?:mbed)?)\/|\S*?[?&]v=|shorts\/)|youtu\.be\/|embed\/|v\/|m\/|watch\?(?:[^=]+=[^&]+&)*?v=))([^"&?\/\s]{11})/gm;
  return regex.exec(url)[1];
}

Here's a python regex that matches all of the links in this gist:

^((https?://(?:www\.)?(?:m\.)?youtube\.com))/((?:oembed\?url=https?%3A//(?:www\.)youtube.com/watch\?(?:v%3D)(?P<video_id_1>[\w\-]{10,20})&format=json)|(?:attribution_link\?a=.*watch(?:%3Fv%3D|%3Fv%3D)(?P<video_id_2>[\w\-]{10,20}))(?:%26feature.*))|(https?:)?(\/\/)?((www\.|m\.)?youtube(-nocookie)?\.com\/((watch)?\?(app=desktop&)?(feature=\w*&)?v=|embed\/|v\/|e\/)|youtu\.be\/)(?P<video_id_3>[\w\-]{10,20})

Python 3 implementation:

def get_youtube_video_id_by_url(url):
    regex = r"^((https?://(?:www\.)?(?:m\.)?youtube\.com))/((?:oembed\?url=https?%3A//(?:www\.)youtube.com/watch\?(?:v%3D)(?P<video_id_1>[\w\-]{10,20})&format=json)|(?:attribution_link\?a=.*watch(?:%3Fv%3D|%3Fv%3D)(?P<video_id_2>[\w\-]{10,20}))(?:%26feature.*))|(https?:)?(\/\/)?((www\.|m\.)?youtube(-nocookie)?\.com\/((watch)?\?(app=desktop&)?(feature=\w*&)?v=|embed\/|v\/|e\/)|youtu\.be\/)(?P<video_id_3>[\w\-]{10,20})"
    match = re.match(regex, url, re.IGNORECASE)
    if match:
        return (
            match.group("video_id_1")
            or match.group("video_id_2")
            or match.group("video_id_3")
        )
    else:
        return None

to cover these edge cases, you can use the following regex:

/(?:https?:\/\/)?(?:www\.)?(?:m\.)?youtube\.com\/watch\/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/

and in typescript:

export function getVideoIdFromYoutubeUrl(url: string) {
  const regex =
    /(?:youtu\.be\/|youtube\.com(?:\/(?:[^\/\n\s]+\/\S+\/|(?:v|e(?:mbed)?)\/|\S*?[?&]v=|shorts\/)|youtu\.be\/|embed\/|v\/|m\/|watch\?(?:[^=]+=[^&]+&)*?v=))([^"&?\/\s]{11})/gm;

  const edgeCasesRegex = /(?:https?:\/\/)?(?:www\.)?(?:m\.)?youtube\.com\/watch\/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/;

  let result = regex.exec(url);

  if (!result) result = edgeCasesRegex.exec(url);

  return result[1];
}

Mine works: https://gist.github.com/rodrigoborgesdeoliveira/987683cfbfcc8d800192da1e73adc486?permalink_comment_id=5055166#gistcomment-5055166

if you are using JS, TS, or Angular u can use this works fine for me

getYoutubeVideoId(url) {
    // Regular expression to match different YouTube URL formats, including shorts
    const regExp = /(?:youtube\.com\/(?:[^\/\n\s]+\/\S+\/|(?:v|e(?:mbed)?|shorts)\/|\S*?[?&]v=)|youtu\.be\/)([a-zA-Z0-9_-]{11})/i;
    const match = url.match(regExp);
    console.log(match && match[1] ? match[1] : null, "id", url); // For debugging purposes
    return match && match[1] ? match[1] : null;
  }

If you trying to find a regex to match all format YT links try this

I write it for myself, it's works for me.
I use Js.
