FAQ

Do I need a YouTube API key? No.

Do Shorts work? Yes. Paste a Shorts link (youtube.com/shorts/…) like any other video.

The same video is in my list twice. It's scraped once; you're never charged twice for the same comment.

A video returned nothing. Videos that are private, deleted or have comments turned off are listed under FAILED_VIDEOS in the run's key-value store and cost nothing.

How exact is publishedDate? YouTube shows relative times ("5 hours ago"), so it's approximate: exact for recent comments, to the month or year for old ones.

Something broke. Open an issue on the Issues tab; fixes usually ship within 24 hours.
