Get YouTube video id

[abin mn]

I am working on a flow related to YouTube. I want to get the video id of the currently playing video in the YouTube app. Is there any way?

Very unlikely, since it doesn't even seem to be displayed anywhere in the YouTube app.

Ok, I will use the copy link to clipboard and clipboard get block.

How could you grab text displayed on screen in an app? Does it need to be a text field?

[Henrik "The Developer" Lindqvist]

Using the Interact block with action Inspect. Any kind of field will do, just as long as it has an UI element ID, so it can be identified.

Thanks,  I was able to make some headway here.  I ended up having to use "adb shell uiautomator dump" to hunt down the ID I wanted to use.
