Find current public live and upcoming YouTube streams from bounded keyword searches. Each record includes status evidence, viewer text, schedule hints, channel identity, thumbnails, badges, query context, and extraction provenance.
Input
{"searchQueries": ["gaming", "news"],"streamTypes": ["live", "upcoming"],"maxItems": 20,"maxPages": 1,"languageCode": "en","countryCode": "US","includeDiagnostics": true,"enableProxyFallback": true,"proxyConfiguration": {"useApifyProxy": false}}
Only public YouTube HTML and embedded page data are read. The actor does not use login state, private request endpoints, CAPTCHA bypass, stealth, fingerprint spoofing, credential-bearing proxy URLs, or opaque continuation replay. One bounded Apify Proxy fallback can be enabled after direct access fails.
Verification
npm testnpx apify validate-schemanpx apify run --purge --input-file qa-inputs/youtube-live-stream-scraper/local-validation.jsonnode validate-datasets.js
The OUTPUT key-value record reports item, page, diagnostic, blocked, and proxy-routing counts. streamStatus is emitted only when public metadata supports live or upcoming; unclassified videos are not presented as streams.
