APIs Part 2 - Pull Images and Display in Custom Card - HTML & Template Data

Today's video is part 2 of our look at retrieving data from an API and displaying it in Home Assistant. We look at how to pull information from the YouTube API and display the latest video from any YouTube channel. We show you how to install a custom Lovelace card that lets you use Home Assistant template information and HTML to make a truly custom card. We pull the latest thumbnail, title, and link from any channel.

If you would like me to cover any specific API, just let me know!

❓What future topics would you like me to cover??❓
