Input example
Detail levels
- full (default): opens each video for likes, comment count, exact publish date, full description, tags and category.
- fast: listing data only (title, views, duration, channel, thumbnail, description snippet for search). Faster for very large lists.
Pricing
Pay per event: one video result per video row and one channel result per channel row. Failed or invalid inputs are not charged, and videos filtered out by Only videos published after are not charged either. Set a max charge per run and the Actor stops cleanly at your limit.
Notes
- Counts like comments and subscribers are rounded the way YouTube displays them (e.g. 2.4M).
- Likes are missing when the creator hides them.
- The Actor reads only public pages and data, never logs in and does not download video or audio.
- YouTube may not apply every search sort option to every query; use Only videos published after for strict date filtering.
