Onebox for YouTube Music

An example YouTube Music Album (playlist) URL:

Should this work @techAPJ?

Onebox does not support YouTube Music yet. I do not see required OpenGraph tags so that’s why the basic onebox is failing.

I’ll add it on my list to investigate how much effort that is and if we can reuse/extend existing YouTube onebox engine.

A bigger ask, but perhaps something like the Onebox for SoundCloud playlists? I’m guessing that SoundCloud makes this easy, but Google Play Music does not.

Just giving this topic a little bump, especially now that Google Play Music is :skull_and_crossbones: and YouTube Music is now the only way Google delivers music…

It looks like there is no public API for YouTube Music yet and services like iframely are converting YouTube Music links (music.youtube.com/playlist) to regular YouTube list links (youtube.com/embed/videoseries):

… and even that does not work reliably, for example:

So unless official YouTube Music API is available I am not sure if we can onebox the music.youtube.com links reliably.
