Hello everyone! I am a beginner web developer and I want to create a web application for osu players, but I need an API to get beatmap names/artists for it.

I've read the documentation of osu!api v2 and I got that I need to request the access here for API p/api. But I don't have any app yet, I want to try making it using osu! API. Do I just request without any url or actual application name? Or is there another way to get the key?

Click on your little profile picture at the top-right -> settings -> scroll down to "Create New OAuth" -> Create New OAuth -> Create a name -> The API key will be the client secret.

If it is self-contained I do not think you need a url unless you are tracking that, but you do need to have a name. However I could be misinformed with that but the above is the way to get the client secret (API key)

I want to try the API myself to see stats. Are there any good videos on YouTube that details how to use Osu's stat API?

Well did you look to see if the documentation is on the api documentation? A simple internet search of osu! api to get stats or something similar would probably yield some results.
