YouTube Scraper — search, channel videos & video details, no API key

Three things in one actor, all through YouTube's own web API — no API key, no daily quota, no browser:

  • Search with filters that combine: upload date (hour / today / week / month / year), duration, and sort (relevance, upload date, view count, rating).
  • Channel videos from a channel URL, @handle or ID — the channel's videos, newest first, as far back as you like.
  • Video details for any video: exact view count, likes, publish date, duration, full description, keywords, channel and subscriber count.

Turn on fetchDetails to enrich every search and channel result with the full details.

Input

Use cases

Content and competitor research, trend tracking by keyword, channel monitoring, influencer discovery and vetting, and building video datasets without the Data API's 10,000-unit daily quota.

Notes

  • Transcripts are not included; YouTube gates caption downloads separately.
  • Like counts come from the watch-page data and can be absent when a channel hides them.
