Playlist Search for YouTube™
Description from store

To use, simply click the extension when on a playlist or a video inside a playlist and the extension will list ALL videos inside the playlist. You may then instantly search for and click any video in the list to go to it.

This extension requires you to login so that the extension can make authorized API calls to the YouTube™ Data API for all of your playlists. This means that it will work on both public and private playlists.

Catch Hell
Keeps saying invalid playlist
Psilobite
While it does work, it recently asked to refresh my API key. After I did that, I get the dreaded "Video unavailable This content isn't available, try again later" message on playing ANY video. My account is now permanently broken as people who get this error are unable to fix it, and YouTube won't do anything to help. Use this extension at your own risk.

I got this to search my Liked Videos, but it says "invalid playlist" every time.
Facundo Zapata
Sometimes works
Ahmed Seoudi
It works, but now I have to remove it and re-add it for it to run every time, unlike before when it worked without needing that.
Scripted Fady
Works completely fine for me, it will ask for which account it needs access to, but it needs it to know which channel to use and that's basically it
Delikan
It's case sensitive and it can't find songs because of this problem
Filth Cas
Invalid Playlist error
Mantas
invalid playlist

Works great, I just used it to find a now-unlisted video from my Liked playlist from nearly a decade ago.

Invalid Playlist error after giving full access to Youtube channel.

"Watch Later playlist is inaccessible due to privacy concerns. Thank you for understanding." How would I authorize?

doesn't work at all
Isaac Isaax
When I click the extension to use it, it makes me log in to my Youtube account/allow access. I do that. Then it says Invalid Playlist (I've tried multiple playlists). Every time I click on the extension, I have to repeat the process of allowing access, then it says Invalid Playlist. Doesn't work at all.
Ben A
life saver. thanks :)
Rob Dowson
Doesn't work for me - "Access blocked: authorisation error"

Having to install an extension for this is a great shame for Youtube. Something so basic and fundamental should be native. About the extension: works like should be.

Had hoped that I could search a 1200 track long playlist. Has actually worked on the first go. Many thanks to the developer

It works PERFECTLY FINE if you actually follow the directions. The only thing WRONG / that could be improved is that there's literally no way to open multiple videos at once from the search, and if you click ANYWHERE on the page, even opening a search result in a new tab, it makes the entire search window go away. This makes it extremely cumbersome if you're trying to say, search a playlist for multiple videos on the same subject, or to clean out old junk from a playlist. ALSO- I have a weird "linked account" situation where my OG youtube account from long before you ever had to have an email account is linked to my normal gmail/google account, and I have to log into the extension with my gmail account to make it work for the OG account. If I log in with the OG username it does nothing. If this extension isn't working for you, and you're using an oldschool youtube account, that's probably your issue.

https://github.com/hallzy/youtube-playlist-search as explained here, api key of the extension is no longer valid. only way to make this code work again is to follow instructions related to generating individual api keys for test purposes and use the extension for private purposes as many asked before i'm asking again, why the hell youtube is still not enabling search within playlists ! people gahter invaluable information through videos saved into playlist and many times you need to get back to that specific videos again and again, please youtube add native content search feature including playlists created by the users for themselves.

No longer a supported plugin. Didn't work. I hate independent software developers who act in a unresponsible way, and waste our time. They knew their extension didn't work, but rather than providing appropriate specs and communicate to their customers/audeince, they just became bored and moved on to their next project. A two second post saying, "This plugin will only work with X version of Chrome and X version of the operating, they just waste people's time testing a product they no longer support. It's just not a socially responsible choice.

Worked for me so far. Wish instead of jumping to the video, it would just highlight the result/s in the existing list. Why the hell doesn't YouTube have playlist search anyway?

As of 2022/23, no longer works. Fix it, or remove the extension.
