Open Web UIInstall

Summary

Send a POST request to the Open Web UI API to process a YouTube video URL for retrieval, optionally specifying a collection name for organizing the processed data.

Inputs

• Skip Authentication — Set to true to bypass the Open WebUI Auth credential; otherwise authentication is used by default.
• Method (required) — HTTP method to use, fixed to POST for this operation.
• Collection Name — An optional string to specify the name of the collection under which the YouTube video data will be stored.
• Url (required) — The YouTube video URL to be processed by the Open Web UI retrieval API.

Output shape

a JSON object containing the response from the Open Web UI retrieval API, representing the result of processing the given YouTube video URL.

The request is sent as application/json content type with a request body containing 'url' (required) and optionally 'collection_name'. Authentication uses the Open WebUI Auth credential unless skipped. The baseUrl defaults to http://open-webui:8080.

Examples

Example 1: Process a YouTube video URL without specifying a collection.

Set 'Url' to the video's URL, leave 'Collection Name' empty, use POST method, and authenticate using Open WebUI Auth.
