YouTube channels

channels

Optional

Channels to check: @handle, channel id (UC...), or a channel URL (https://www.youtube.com/@handle, /channel/UC..., /c/name or /user/name, with or without the scheme). A plain name is read as @name. Video links are not channels and come back as a free row. The same channel written twice is checked once. Up to 1,000 per run. If you leave this empty, the example channels @LofiGirl and @NASA are checked and every row says so in inputChannel.

Type:array

Maximum rows to return

maxChannels

Optional

How many charged rows to return in total when monitoring is off: reading stops once this many channels have been read (with onlyLive, once this many live channels have been found), and a free row says how many were not checked or not returned. In monitoring mode it does not limit the changes returned - every change among the channels read comes back.

Type:integer

Minimum:1

Maximum:1000

Default:100

Only return channels that are live right now

onlyLive

Optional

On = channels that are not live are checked but not returned, so they cost no row price (in monitoring mode the check fee still applies). Handy for a 'who is live now' list.

Type:boolean

Default:false

List every live and scheduled stream of the channel

includeAllStreams

Optional

On = the channel's Live tab is read as well, so a channel running several streams at once lists all of them (with their viewer counts) and every scheduled stream with its start time. When the channel is live this reads one more page per channel. Off = only the stream YouTube shows on the channel's /live page is reported; in monitoring mode, a channel with several streams at once can then be reported as a new stream when YouTube shows a different one of them.

Type:boolean

Default:true

Monitoring mode: return a channel only when its live status changes

monitoringMode

Optional

Off = every channel you listed comes back with its current status, charged per row. On = the Actor remembers each channel and, on later runs, returns it only when it went live, ended its stream, started another stream, or scheduled a new stream. The first run returns every channel once to set the baseline. In monitoring mode every channel checked is charged as a check, changed or not (channels YouTube answers 'not found' for and bot checks are free), plus the row price for the rows returned. The check fee is $0.30 per 1,000 checks: 20 channels every 5 minutes = 172,800 checks a month = $51.84. The Actor reads only as many channels as the run's maximum total charge can pay for with a check and a change row each. The status is remembered per channel; do not put the same channel in two schedules that can run at the same time.

Type:boolean

Default:false

Forget what was remembered and start over

resetMonitoringState

Optional

Clears every remembered live status for this Actor, so the next monitoring run returns each channel once again. This affects all your monitoring runs, because the status is stored per channel rather than per list.

Type:boolean

Default:false

Use a proxy if YouTube answers with a bot check or a rate limit

useProxy

Optional

Every request goes out directly first, which worked from Apify on every attempt measured on 2026-10-19. If YouTube answers with a bot check, a consent page, a rate limit or an empty response, this switches to a proxy session and tries again. With it off, that answer is returned as a free 'blocked' row and no proxy is paid for.

Type:boolean

Default:true
