Input

Field	Description
`channelUrls`	Public channel references; public video URLs are accepted for compatibility.
`videoUrls`	Public `/watch`, `/shorts`, `/live`, or `youtu.be` URLs.
`videoIds`	Public 11-character video IDs.
`maxItems`	Maximum references, from 1 to 200 (default 50).
`includeDiagnostics`	Store safe diagnostics for failed or blocked public pages (default `true`).
`enableProxyFallback`	Try ordinary Apify Proxy after direct access fails (default `true`).
`maxRetries`, `requestDelayMs`, `requestTimeoutSecs`	Bounded request controls.
`proxyConfiguration`	Optional credential-free Apify Proxy settings.

Example:

{
  "channelUrls": ["@GoogleDevelopers"],
  "videoIds": ["dQw4w9WgXcQ"],
  "maxItems": 2,
  "includeDiagnostics": true,
  "enableProxyFallback": false,
  "proxyConfiguration": {"useApifyProxy": false}
}

Output

Each identity record contains the original reference and type, channel ID/name/handle/canonical URL, description, avatar/banner, displayed and parsed subscriber/total-view/video counts, join date, country, keywords, external links, optional source video ID, resolution method, source page, extraction method, and scrapedAt. Unavailable fields are omitted.

The default dataset also receives safe diagnostics when requested. OUTPUT records item counts, failures, blocks, duration, and whether Apify Proxy routing was requested and configured. Operational request details, credentials, cookies, proxy URLs, and private data are never written.

Development

npm ci
npx apify validate-schema .actor/input_schema.json
npm test
apify run --purge --input-file qa-inputs/youtube-channel-id-extractor/local-validation.json
npm run validate-dataset

The cloud-validation.json fixture explicitly requests the ordinary US Apify Proxy group for a genuine server routing check.
