Maximum:5000

Default:20

Max top-level comments per video

maxComments

Fetch reply threads. Emitted as flat rows by default; use Output mode tree to embed them instead.

Default:top

Options:

topnewest

Comments since

commentsSince

Optional

Optional cutoff as an ISO date/datetime (2026-10-16) or relative duration (7d, 24h, 30m). Forces newest sort. Pinned comments are always kept; pagination stops at the first non-pinned comment older than the cutoff.

Type:string

Keywords (ANY match)

keywords

Optional

Case-insensitive OR filter on comment and reply text. Empty = no keyword filter. A parent comment that does not match is skipped, so its replies are not fetched.

Type:string[]

Default:

[]

Minimum likes

minLikes

Optional

Drop comments and replies below this like count. Applied after fetching. YouTube only exposes rounded counts (K/M), so the comparison uses the rounded value.

Type:integer

Minimum:0

Maximum:1000000000

Default:0

onlyCreatorHearted

Optional

Keep only comments/replies that the video creator hearted. HeartedBy identifies the creator where YouTube exposes the tooltip.
