FAQ
Where did YouTube Trending go? YouTube retired the Trending page (youtube.com/feed/trending) in July 2025 and replaced it with category charts: trending music videos, trending movie trailers and the podcast chart, next to the music charts at charts.youtube.com. The old general "Trending" list no longer exists anywhere on YouTube, so every scraper reads these charts or YouTube's editorial category pages.
Why do trending lists have no views? YouTube shows only the order for them. Turn on Add video stats for the exact total views, likes and comments of each video.
How far back does history go? Weekly top songs, music videos and artists: September 2017. Daily music videos and Shorts songs: November 2023. Podcasts: March 2025. Trending lists have no history: schedule the Actor to build your own.
Which week is a chart date? Weekly music charts end on Thursday. Any date you enter gives the chart whose week includes it.
What are the views? For top songs, music videos and artists: views in the chart week (or day) in that country, as YouTube Charts count them. Total views of a video are in totalViews with Add video stats.

Run it via the Apify API from Python, Node.js or any HTTP client, or connect it to Claude, ChatGPT and other AI agents through the Apify MCP server: "What music videos are trending in Brazil and Mexico today, and which songs entered the US top 100 this week?"
