POST
https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/streamers~youtube-scraper/runs?token=<YOUR_API_TOKEN>

Note: By adding the method=POST query parameter, this API endpoint can be called using a GET request and thus used in third-party webhooks. Please refer to our Run Actor API documentation.

POST
https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/streamers~youtube-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<YOUR_API_TOKEN>

Note: This endpoint supports both POST and GET request methods. However, only the POST method allows you to pass input data. For more information, please refer to our Run Actor synchronously and get dataset items API documentation.

Actors can be used to scrape web pages, extract data, or automate browser tasks. Use the YouTube Scraper API programmatically via the Apify API.

You can choose from:

You can start YouTube Scraper with the Apify API by sending an HTTP POST request to the Run Actorendpoint. An Actor’s input and its content type can be passed as a payload of the POST request, and additional options can be specified using URL query parameters. The YouTube Scraper is identified within the API by its ID, which is the creator’s username and the name of the Actor.

When the YouTube Scraper run finishes you can list the data from its default dataset(storage) via the API or you can preview the data directly on Apify Console.
