# YouTube Import

> Import YouTube videos, playlists, and channels into NotebookLM

## Feature

Open a YouTube page in your browser. The NoteFlow side panel automatically detects it and shows the import interface.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open a YouTube page">
    Open a YouTube video, playlist, or channel page.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Auto-query">
    The side panel automatically identifies the current YouTube page and fetches the video list. You can also paste a link manually.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select videos">
    Check the videos you want to import. Playlists/channels support "Load more" pagination.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Import to NotebookLM">
    Click import. The extension sends video URLs to NotebookLM in batches, and NotebookLM natively parses the content.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Supported Page Types

| Type         | Description                                     |

## Notes

* NotebookLM natively supports YouTube video parsing — the extension only sends video URLs
* Batch import progress is shown in real time
* SPA navigation is supported (YouTube single-page app route changes auto-trigger refreshes)
