Overview

YouTube is the world’s leading video-sharing platform, allowing people and organizations to upload, watch, and share a vast range of video content. With its official API, YouTube also gives developers the tools to integrate video functionality directly into their applications and workflows.

In the context of Directus, YouTube integration makes it easy to embed and manage your video content right inside your data platform. By using extensions like the Video Player Interface and the YouTube Embed Interface, you can add YouTube videos to your content collections, display them in your dashboards, and organize all your media assets without leaving Directus. This integration is especially useful for teams managing media-rich content, as it keeps your video data and metadata structured and accessible alongside the rest of your project’s data.

For anyone looking to bring YouTube’s video capabilities into their Directus-powered projects, these tools offer a straightforward way to manage, display, and curate video content within a single workspace.
