/stream/{video_id}

A shorthand for /download that takes a bare YouTube video ID in the path instead of a full URL in the query string. Everything else — auth, responses, errors — works exactly the same.

GET/stream/{video_id}

Parameter	Location	Type	Required	Description
video_id	path	string	required	A YouTube video ID, e.g. dQw4w9WgXcQ.
type	query	string	required	Either audio or video.
api_key	query	string	required	Your API key. See authentication.

curl

curl "https://yt-dow.co08.art/stream/dQw4w9WgXcQ?type=video&api_key=YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -o video.mp4

Path takes an ID, not a URL. video_id is always treated as a YouTube video ID. If you have a full URL, use /download instead.

Response

Identical to /download: on success the body is the audio or video file itself, with a matching Content-Type.

Errors

Same error set as /download — see that page for the full table, plus errors & rate limits for IP-level responses.
