YouTube Video Third-Party Trainability Home

  • YouTube creators and rights holders can control whether their content is used to train AI models through a specific setting in YouTube Studio.

  • The YouTube Video Third-Party Trainability API allows for the identification of whether a specific video can be used for AI training purposes.

  • By default, the third-party training setting for content is turned off, and creators must actively enable it if they choose.

  • The service endpoint for the API is https://youtube.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videoTrainability, with a specific resource URI available to check video trainability status.

  • The get method allows users to check the trainability status of a given video through the use of the GET /videoTrainability call.

YouTube Video Third-Party Trainability allows creators and rights holders to specify whether their content can be used for training AI models.

How it works

You can use the YouTube Video Third-Party Trainability API to identify if a given video is trainable.

Creators and rights holders can choose whether to allow companies to use their content for ML training. This is done by enabling the Allow third-party companies to train AI models using my content option in YouTube Studio settings. By default, the third-party training setting is turned off.
