Youtube User Channel Scraper By Keyword Search ๐
Youtube User Channel Scraper By Keyword Search scrapes the same structured YouTube channel metadata as the base Youtube User Channel Scraper (subscribers, views, video count, join date, links, business-email signal) from channel IDs or URLs โ and adds one more way in: topic keyword search. Instead of only enriching channels you already have URLs or IDs for, feed it niche/topic keywords (e.g. "personal finance", "3d printing") and it discovers matching channels on YouTube's own channel search, then scrapes full metadata for each one it finds. Built for market researchers and competitive-landscape mapping โ a youtube channel finder by keyword / youtube niche channel scraper workflow โ as well as the original youtube channel data scraper / youtube channel URL scraper use cases.
Input
{"ids": "UCyBD3P9YOFWNIMTuDzqeObg,UC-1234567890abcdef","start_urls": [{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/@BBCNews" }],"searchKeywords": ["personal finance", "3d printing"]}
| Parameter | Required | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
ids | โฌ | Comma-separated list of YouTube Channel IDs. Same as the base actor. |
start_urls | โฌ | List of YouTube channel URLs to scrape. Same as the base actor. |
searchKeywords | โฌ | New. Topic keywords. Each keyword is searched on YouTube's channel-filtered search, and every channel found is resolved and enriched the same way as ids/start_urls. |
Output
Every base field (channelId, avatar, banner, title, verified, hasbusinessEmail, joinDate, country, viewCount, videoCount, subscriberCount, description, links, indexUrl, channelUrl) plus:
| Field | Type | What It Tells You |
|---|---|---|
matchedKeyword | string | null | The search keyword that discovered this channel. null when the channel instead came from ids/start_urls. |
error | string | null | Diagnostic message; only populated on the single uncharged row pushed when a run produces zero results. |
How keyword discovery works
Each keyword is submitted to youtube.com/results with YouTube's own "Type: Channel" search filter, so the results page returns channel entries rather than videos. Every channel found (capped at 15 per keyword to keep runs bounded) is converted into a channel URL and scraped with the exact same extraction logic as the base actor โ so keyword-discovered channels get the identical metadata quality as directly-supplied ones.
