Choose this Actor when

Choose this specialist when you need complete unique public playlist video entries with explicit evidence and billing boundaries. It is intentionally narrower than a generic YouTube scraper. Start with one query, video, channel, or playlist before scheduling a larger workflow.

First run checklist

1. Run the included bounded public example.
2. Verify source URLs, IDs, text, and evidence fields in the Dataset.
3. Compare paid rows with the free RUN_SUMMARY.
4. Save a Task, schedule, webhook, API, MCP, or AI-agent workflow only after the sample is useful.

Evidence and billing

Launch PPE price: $12.00 per 1,000 complete unique public playlist video entries, or $1.20 for 100. Diagnostics, failed or incomplete fetches, duplicates, empty searches, unsupported classifications, and truncated records are never billed.

Report only entries returned by YouTube's public playlist feed. State that the feed is a bounded current inventory and may not expose every historical item.

Output schema

Billable Dataset fields: playlistId, playlistUrl, position, videoId, videoUrl, title, channelId, publishedAt, updatedAt, sourceFeedUrl, scrapedAt. The separate RUN_SUMMARY reports requested inputs, saved rows, free failures, and source boundaries. Error-only or placeholder rows never enter the Dataset.

Source boundaries

The Actor uses public YouTube search, comment, channel metadata, or playlist-feed surfaces as required by this exact workflow. Cloud runs use Apify's plan-included rotating datacenter proxy because YouTube can require sign-in from shared Actor IPs. It never uses a residential proxy and does not return captions, transcripts, subtitles, private videos, members-only content, logged-in data, or inferred audience demographics.

Automation and AI agents

Use Apify Tasks, schedules, API, webhooks, ChatGPT, Claude, Neuton Actors MCP, n8n, Make, Zapier, Sheets, a warehouse, RAG pipeline, or agent workflow.

Responsible use

Use public data for legitimate creator, media, marketing, research, education, moderation, and automation workflows. Do not bypass access controls, collect private content, identify anonymous people, infer sensitive traits, or make consequential decisions from lexical sentiment. Review YouTube's current terms and applicable privacy, advertising, and copyright rules before production use.
