Give it a YouTube video URL or video ID and it returns that video as one row: video ID, title, channel name, view count, like count, comment count, duration in milliseconds, and the publish timestamp. Shorts, youtu.be links, embed links, and livestream replays all work.
Input
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
url | string | no | Full YouTube video URL. Shorts, youtu.be, live, and embed URLs all work. |
id | string | no | YouTube video ID, if you would rather not paste a URL. A Short uses the same ID as any other video. |
Output
Every result is written to the dataset as one JSON object:
{"id": "dQw4w9WgXcQ","title": "Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up (Official Video) (4K Remaster)","channel": "Rick Astley","views": 1813534375,"likes": 19378733,"comments": 2400000,"durationMs": 214000,"createdUtc": 1256453853,"source": "AnyAPI"}
Standby mode
This Actor also runs in Standby mode. Send the same input as a JSON body in a
POST request and it answers with { "items": [ ... ] }, the same rows a
standard run would write, charged the same way.
Pricing
This Actor is billed per result, plus one small fixed charge per run. A result event is charged for every row it writes, and the Actor Start event is charged once when the run begins. A run that finds nothing, or that comes back with an empty list, writes no rows and pays the start charge only. Both prices are on this Actor's Apify Store page.
Free Apify plans get 200 results a month from this Actor. The allowance resets on the first of every month (UTC), and a run that has used it up stops with a message saying so instead of writing rows. Paid Apify plans have no limit.

One shape across every platform
This Actor belongs to a set of sixteen on this account that read YouTube,
Instagram, TikTok, X, Reddit, Threads, Facebook Ads Library and Google News.
They take the same kind of input, write the same kind of row, bill the same way,
and stamp every row with "source": "AnyAPI", so a pipeline written against
one of them reads all of them without a second parser.
