Tool id: tikhub-api-youtube-web-v2-get-related-videos
Provider: TikHub
Job: Get related videos api youtube web v2 (api.youtube.web-v2.get-related-videos)
Price: $0.001 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

Inputs

Name	Type	Required	Description
`need_format`	boolean	no	Whether to format data. true: return formatted structured data, false: return raw API structure. Example: true
`video_id`	string	no	Video ID.
`video_url`	string	no	Ignored if video_id is provided). Example: “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ”

Output

Shape of the run’s result, the expected shape, not yet checked against real answers:

{ code, data: { video_id, total_count, related_videos: unknown[] }, docs, time, params: { video_id, video_url }, router, message, support, cache_url, time_zone, message_zh, request_id, time_stamp, cache_message, cache_message_zh }

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"tikhub-api-youtube-web-v2-get-related-videos","input":{"video_id":"<video_id>","video_url":"<video_url>","need_format":true},"wait":30}'

const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",

      need_format: true,
    },
    wait: 30,

});
const run = await response.json();
