YouTube Channel Email Finder

Extract YouTube creator business emails in bulk from channel IDs, @handles or URLs. This YouTube email scraper — also a YouTube channel email extractor and influencer contact finder — turns a channel list into an outreach-ready contact list, login-free and with no Google accounts.

It reads each creator's business email from the channel About page and, when none is there, crawls the linked website's Contact/About pages. Built for influencer outreach, sponsorship prospecting and B2B lead generation. Export to CSV, JSON or Excel.

How to use

1. Add YouTube channels — IDs (UC...), @handles, or full URLs. Channel IDs are the most reliable (they avoid handle/URL redirect issues).
2. Keep Crawl linked website on (recommended) to boost the hit rate beyond description-only scraping.
3. Optionally enable Always crawl linked website to also collect secondary emails, or Only output channels with an email for a clean hit-list.
4. Run the actor and export results as CSV, Excel or JSON, or pull them via the Apify API.

Where do I get channel lists? Build a niche channel list with a YouTube search/discovery scraper, then feed those channels straight into this actor. Submit channels likely to publish a contact email — creators who already run sponsorships, brand deals or a business/website almost always list a business email.

Input fields

Field	Type	Default	Description
channels (required)	array	—	Channel IDs, @handles, or URLs.
crawlLinkedSite	boolean	true	Crawl the linked site when no email is in the description.

maxSitePages	integer	3	Pages of the linked site to scan (homepage + contact/about).

How it works

Given a channel ID, handle or URL, the actor resolves each input to a channel and reads its About/description for a published business email. When none is found, it follows the creator's linked website and scans the Contact/About/Impressum pages. Platform/boilerplate addresses (Patreon, Wix, Sentry, no-reply, etc.) are filtered out so you only get real contact emails. It's login-free, uses no Google accounts and reads only public data — zero ban risk.

FAQ

Does it get the email behind YouTube's "View email address" button?

No — that email is gated behind a logged-in Google account and a CAPTCHA. This actor harvests the emails creators publish openly in their description and on their linked website, with zero accounts and zero ban risk — which is exactly where a large share of monetizing creators put their business contact.

What's the hit rate?

It depends on your input list — channels that actively monetize almost always publish a contact email. The emailSource field shows whether each email came from the description or the website, and none when a creator hasn't published one.

Do I get charged when no email is found?

You still get a row with emailSource: "none" so you can see coverage. Enable onlyWithEmail to keep just the hits.

What input formats are supported?

Channel IDs (UC...), @handles, and full channel URLs (/channel/..., /@..., /c/...).

How do I scrape YouTube emails without login?

This actor reads only public data — the channel About description and the creator's linked website — so it needs no Google account, no login and no CAPTCHA. You feed in channels and get back published contact emails.

How do I export YouTube channel data to CSV or JSON?

Every run is a dataset you can download as CSV, JSON, Excel or HTML, or pull via the Apify API. Each row holds the channel, email, linked website, socials and subscriber count — ready for outreach.

Is this a YouTube email API alternative?

Yes. Instead of YouTube's gated "View email address" button or the official Data API, it harvests the business emails creators publish openly, then hands you a clean bulk export of YouTube creator contacts.
