✨ Features

YouTube Phone Number Scraper is a YouTube channel phone number scraper built to extract phone numbers from YouTube videos and public channel pages: point it at a keyword and a country, and it returns clean, structured matches. It's built for lead generation, local-market research, recruiter outreach and B2B prospecting.

It extracts, per match:

• Phone number – the number in E.164 international form.
• Page title – the page's title as listed.
• Page description – the public text the number appears in.
• Country / dial code – the country the number was matched against.
• Page URL – the YouTube page link, without tracking parameters.

⚡ Country-aware validation checks the number's digit count and, where known, its national numbering plan, so dates, prices and other digit runs that only look like a phone number never make it into the dataset. Each number appears at most once per keyword.

Use cases 💡

• Sales rep — scrape YouTube creator contact phone numbers to build a call list by country.
• Recruiter — use it as a YouTube creator phone number finder for niche channel outreach.
• Local-market researcher — run a YouTube contact phone number lookup across one niche in one country.
• Growth marketer — use it as a YouTube influencer phone number finder to seed cold-outreach lists.
• AI agent builder — feed matched numbers straight into a CRM-enrichment or lead-scoring pipeline with no parsing step.

Why choose this actor?

• Built for YouTube phone number lead generation. Every keyword is searched several ways (exact, broader, recent, with "call" and "whatsapp") until it reaches maxPhoneNumbers or the results run out.
• Eight fields per match, not just a number. Every row also carries the page title, the public text the number appeared in, the page link, the matched country and dial code.
• 194 countries, built-in fallback. Numbers are checked against 194 countries' dial codes (plus a Global catch-all); when the primary source returns too little, a backup source is searched too.

A recorded local test run returned 10 phone numbers for the keyword whatsapp (India (+91)) in 79 seconds.

maxPhoneNumbers	No	Integer	How many phone numbers to collect per keyword (1–10,000, default 10). Free-plan runs are capped at 20 per run in total (all keywords together) and 200 per month.	10

How does it work?

YouTube Phone Number Scraper doesn't log into YouTube at all. For every keyword it looks for public YouTube pages that show a phone number matching your chosen country — first on a primary source, then on a backup source when the primary returns too little. It only reads pages any logged-out visitor could already see. The number is read from the page's public title and text, normalised to international E.164 form and checked against the country's dial code and, where known, its national numbering-plan length. Blocked requests are retried with fresh proxy sessions.

How do you integrate YouTube Phone Number Scraper into your stack?

Call it from any language over the Apify REST API, or wire it into a no-code tool without writing a scraper yourself.

No-code tools (n8n, Make, LangChain)

In n8n, use the Apify node's Run an Actor action, or the HTTP Request node pointed at the Actor's run-sync endpoint with your Apify token. In Make, use the Apify app's Run an Actor module followed by Get Dataset Items. In LangChain, install langchain-apify and call ApifyActorsTool() to let an agent run it as a tool.

MCP (Claude, Cursor and other AI agents)

Add the Apify MCP server with claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=socialdataapi/youtube-phone-number-scraper"; the agent can then call this Actor directly.

Is it legal to scrape YouTube data?

Scraping publicly available data, including public YouTube pages, is generally permitted; the legal risk sits mostly in how the data is stored and used afterward. YouTube Phone Number Scraper returns only publicly available data — what any logged-out visitor already sees. If you operate in the EU, GDPR still applies to storing and using numbers you collect. In countries with telemarketing or anti-spam rules, outreach to a number found this way is still subject to those rules — the Actor finds public numbers, it does not grant permission to contact them. Consult legal counsel if your use case involves bulk storage of personal data.

Frequently asked questions

What fields does YouTube Phone Number Scraper return?

The phone number, the page title, the page description, the page URL, the keyword, the platform, the matched country and its dial code. See the data fields section.

Does YouTube Phone Number Scraper require a YouTube account or login?

No. Only public pages are read, and no YouTube credentials are ever requested.

Why does the run stop with "No proxy available"?

The actor needs a proxy. Leave Apify Proxy switched on (the default) or add your own proxy URLs in the Proxy configuration.

What happens if a YouTube page is private?

A private profile contributes nothing: the Actor only reads what is public, and a keyword with no public page showing a matching-country number produces no row.

Can I search many keywords at once?

Yes. keywords takes a list, with up to 3 keywords processed at the same time, each with its own maxPhoneNumbers budget.

Does YouTube Phone Number Scraper return data in a format LLMs can use directly?

Yes. Every result is typed, normalized JSON with consistent field names — no HTML parsing, no selectors.

What happens when YouTube changes its layout or updates its anti-bot system?

The actor reads general page text rather than one fixed selector, so most layout changes don't break it outright. When a bigger change happens, the actor is updated and your calls keep returning the same JSON schema.

Can I use YouTube Phone Number Scraper without managing proxies or browser infrastructure?

Yes. Proxy rotation and retries run on the Actor's side with Apify Proxy — plain HTTP requests, no headless browser.

Which fields work best for AI training data and RAG indexing?

Index the page title and the page description, since that's the text the number was found in. The country and dial code fields are typed strings you can group and join on directly.
