Rumble Scraper - Videos, Channels, Search & Comments

Scrape Rumble videos by keyword search, channel, or specific video URLs. Get titles, views, rumbles (up/down votes), durations, upload dates, channel info (followers, verified badge) and full comment threads — all in clean, structured JSON, CSV or Excel.

What you get

Videos (from search, channels or video URLs):

Field	Description
title, url, description	Video identity
views, rumblesUp, rumblesDown, commentCount	Engagement metrics
durationSec, publishedAt, thumbnail	Video attributes
channelName, channelUrl, channelFollowers, channelVerified	Author info
isShort, isLive, tags	Classification

Comments (per video URL): text, authorUsername, createdAt (absolute timestamp), rumblesUp, replyCount, isPinned, isVideoOwner.

Input

• Search queries — keywords like news, election, ukraine
• Channel URLs — e.g. https://rumble.com/c/russellbrand (the /videos listing is used automatically, paginated)
• Video URLs — full detail + comments for specific videos
• Limits: max videos per query / per channel, max comments per video, concurrency

All three sources can be combined in one run; duplicates are removed automatically.

How it works

• Channel and video pages are fetched via Rumble's structured data (embedded JSON + schema.org), so the output is precise — no fragile HTML scraping for the main fields.
• Search pages are protected by Cloudflare. The Actor automatically uses residential proxy sessions with retries, and falls back to a headless browser (which executes the challenge) when needed. No configuration required.
• No login, no API keys.

Export

Results land in the Apify dataset with named columns and ready-made views (Videos, Comments). Export to JSON, CSV, Excel or Google Sheets, or fetch via the REST API (dataset → items). See the output tab after a run.

How to scrape Rumble despite Cloudflare

Rumble blocks datacenter IPs with a Cloudflare JS challenge, and its search pages are more aggressively protected than channel or video pages. This Actor ships a three-layer strategy that runs automatically: residential-proxy sessions with sticky IPs and clearance cookies, a headless-browser fallback that executes the challenge for hardened pages, and fresh-IP rotation across retries. There is no official Rumble API — this is the practical alternative, no key and no login required.

FAQ

Is a proxy required? No. The Actor uses Apify residential proxy automatically (billed as standard platform usage) because Rumble blocks datacenter IPs via Cloudflare.

Why did a search return fewer videos than expected? Search pages sit behind Cloudflare's bot protection. The Actor retries with rotating residential sessions and a headless-browser fallback; occasionally a run may still come back short — just run it again. Channel scraping is unaffected and 100% reliable.

Can I scrape comments for search/channel results too? Comments are fetched for videos given via Video URLs (where the full detail page is loaded). Add any video URL from your results to a follow-up run to pull its comments.

How fresh is the data? Everything is fetched live from rumble.com at run time.

Do you support playlists, shorts or livestreams? Channel scraping includes shorts and livestream uploads in the listing (isShort, isLive flags). Playlist support is on the roadmap — open an issue if you need it.

Is there an API? Yes — every actor run is callable via POST /v2/acts/liver0914~rumble-scraper-lite/runs, with webhooks and sync variants. See the Apify API tab.
