Shortcuts Using This

Open personal YouTube playlists
Presents a menu of YouTube playlists sorted into your “Personal” group, letting you choose one and open it in the app.
Grab YouTube playlist ID
For a given YouTube video passed in as input, this isolates the URL parameter after “list=“ that represents a video playlist ID.
Open work YouTube playlists
If you don’t want the Grab YouTube playlist ID shortcut installed, delete the Run Shortcut action above and the URL action below.

However, the shortcut won’t work with links from videos inside playlists anymore.
Open my YouTube playlists
Pulls from a dictionary of YouTube playlists and lets you pick from subgroups to open in the app.

Works Well With

Count
Counts the number of items, characters, words, sentences, or lines passed as input.
