hi i'm interested in this api
but, i don't understand below word

Go to the developer tools (Ctrl-Shift-I) and find an authenticated POST request. You can filter for /browse to easily find a suitable request.

i open ytm in firefox. then input ctrl+shift+i.
how can i find an authenticated POST request...?
and this step is before login ytm or after login ytm?

First you log in to YouTube Music, then you press Ctrl-Shift-I and click on the library tab. Copy the request headers as shown in the screenshot (Network tab):

Hi @sigma67,
I'm currently working on a project that focuses on synchronizing data across various music applications. and I've run into a bit of a roadblock when it comes to authenticating with YouTube Music via the ytmusicapi.
I did my best to follow the steps provided on the website, but I seem to be stuck at the point where I need to find the URL as mentioned. It's been a bit of a puzzle, and I was wondering if you could offer some guidance or share any insights you might have on this matter.

Hi @Devam153 , please ask in Discussions Q&A section. I think the screenshot is pretty clear, just click around a bit and filter by browse. Although the recommend way these days is oauth: https://ytmusicapi.readthedocs.io/en/stable/setup/oauth.html
