See the Data: Sample Output

Here's a real record from a single run:

[
  {
    "id": "294847563901",
    "platform": "youtube",
    "profile_url": "",
    "status": "Available"
  },
  {
    "id": "730215689407",
    "platform": "x",
    "profile_url": "https://x.com/emilywritespoem",
    "status": "Not Available"
  },
  {
    "id": "105904372816",
    "platform": "instagram",
    "profile_url": "",
    "status": "Unknown"
  }
]

Field	Type	What It Tells You
id	string	A unique identifier for the record in this run (useful for deduping).
platform	string	Which platform the username was checked on (so you can pick the right handle).
profile_url	string	A profile link when the username is marked “Not Available” and a profile URL can be constructed.
status	string	The availability outcome: Available, Not Available, or Unknown (for instagram and twitch).
keyword	string	The username input you asked to check (from your run input).
platform	string	The platform name as returned in the result records for easy filtering.
profile_url	string	Lets you quickly verify what already uses the handle.
status	string	Lets you branch your workflow: pick available handles, or adjust naming if taken.
id	string	Helps track and audit what your run produced.
profile_url	string	Empty when no profile URL is available for that status/platform combination.
status	string	“Unknown” indicates the actor cannot determine availability for that platform in its output logic.
profile_url	string	Useful for reporting and internal review when a handle is already taken.

Export your full dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Apify dashboard.

What It Does

All-In-One Username Availability Checker checks a username across multiple platforms and returns a merged, ready-to-export dataset with availability results.

Coverage across many platforms

This username availability checker is designed to check username availability on 85+ platforms. You can run it for one platform or choose "All" to compare handle availability across the whole set in a single run.

Fast results for “check username availability” workflows

Use this check username availability tool when you need quick answers for branding, campaign naming, or community growth. Instead of manually searching platform-by-platform, you get a consolidated dataset you can act on immediately.

Instant username checker output you can filter

Results are returned as records with platform, profile_url, and status. That makes it easy to separate “Available” handles from “Not Available” ones during analysis or outreach planning.

Built-in proxy support for reliable scraping

The actor supports proxy configuration via proxyConfiguration so you can improve reliability for bulk runs. This helps when platforms behave inconsistently or restrict repeated access.

Handles unknown cases explicitly

For instagram and twitch, the output status is set to Unknown. This keeps your downstream pipeline honest—so you don’t treat every record as a definitive taken/available answer.

Overall: All-In-One Username Availability Checker delivers a multi platform username checker result set you can export and use right away.

Why All-In-One Username Availability Checker?

There are plenty of ways to pull handle status from different places—here’s why All-In-One Username Availability Checker stands out.

One run, many platforms

Instead of checking a username availability tool one site at a time, this actor consolidates results into a single dataset. That’s ideal when you’re building a shortlist of handles across platforms for a launch or brand refresh.

Consistent output for faster decision-making

The actor returns a structured dataset with status and (when available) profile_url. That means you can quickly filter for “Available” and move on to choosing a final handle—no manual cleanup needed.

Built for automation and batch planning

Whether you’re running a custom username availability workflow or doing research at scale, this username search tool plugs into your process cleanly via dataset export. It’s also well-suited for automation scenarios where you repeatedly check custom username availability over time.

Reliability & Limitations

What We Handle	How
Rate limiting and access variability	Supports proxy configuration via proxyConfiguration.
Unavailable results from specific endpoints	Produces explicit status values, including Unknown for instagram and twitch.
Occasional request failures	Uses fallback behavior when proxy settings change, and skips platforms that can’t be processed.
Mixed-source completeness	Merges results from primary and secondary checks into one dataset.

Limitations: Availability status can vary by platform and by what each endpoint can return. This actor outputs Unknown for instagram and twitch, so you may need manual verification if you require a definitive taken/available determination for those two platforms.

For enterprise-scale needs or custom configurations, reach out and we'll help.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Apify provides a free tier that includes $5 platform credits on sign-up, which is typically enough for several real test runs.

Do I need to log in or create an account on any platform?

No. This actor checks username availability using publicly available information and returns the results in your Apify dataset.

How accurate is the extracted data?

The actor returns availability statuses based on what the underlying endpoints can report, including explicit status values like Available, Not Available, and Unknown for instagram and twitch.

How many results can I get per run?

When you set platform to "All", the actor checks all supported platforms in its list and returns a record per platform it processes. If you choose a specific platform, you’ll only get results for that platform.

How fresh is the data?

Data freshness depends on when you run the actor. Each run performs new checks at runtime, so your results reflect the username availability status at the time the actor fetched the data.

Is this legal? Does it comply with GDPR / CCPA?

This actor uses publicly available data. Whether your specific use case complies with GDPR, CCPA, platform ToS, and applicable local regulations is your responsibility.

Can I export to Google Sheets or Excel?

Yes. You can export your dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Apify dashboard. From there, you can import into Google Sheets or other spreadsheet tools.

Can I schedule this to run automatically?

Yes. You can schedule Apify actor runs on a cron schedule so your username availability across platforms stays up to date over time.

Can I access results via the API?

Yes. You can pull results programmatically via the Apify API after your run finishes.

What happens when the actor encounters an error?

If a platform check fails, that platform may be skipped for the run. For instagram and twitch, the actor still returns records with status set to Unknown according to its output logic.
