Home » JQuery » jquery get youtube video ID from URL using split function?

  • To get the ID of the YouTube video from URL first we have to split the URL and get the substring by neglecting other parameters

    //var url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQ0yjYUFKAE";
var url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQ0yjYUFKAE&list=TLGGoEoGU6P8wlUwNzA3MjAyMQ";
var totalString=url.split("v=")[1];
var longUrl=totalString.indexOf("&");
if(longUrl==-1){
console.log(totalString); 
}
else{
console.log(totalString.substring(0,longUrl))
}

    output
