Frequently Asked Questions

Is web scraping YouTube legal?

Yes, since we’re not collecting any information hidden behind a login or made private by a creator, scraping publicly available YouTube channel data is fully legal.

Can I scrape video data using this YouTube channel scraper?

Yes. Alongside the channel's About section, this scraper extracts the channel's videos, shorts, playlists and comments — 60+ data points in total. For each video you get the ID, URL, title, duration, thumbnail, view count and publish age.

Can I find out what email is associated with a YouTube account?

No, the email tied to a YouTube account is always private. This scraper only extracts emails that creators have made public in their channel description — we never scrape private emails. Learn more about YouTube email enrichment.

Can I use the email list after data scraping for email marketing purposes?

Yes, after scraping emails, you can create an organized email list. You can use it for outreach and cold emailing.

How many videos, shorts, streams and playlists does it return per channel?

Up to 30 videos, 30 shorts, 30 streams and 30 playlists per channel. Each is a separate add-on toggle in Basic Settings, so you only pay for the sections you actually need. For each item you get the ID, URL, title, duration, thumbnail, view count and publish age.

How does the Get Comments add-on work?

Get Comments requires Get Videos and/or Get Shorts to be enabled — it does nothing on its own. It collects comments from the videos and shorts already gathered, up to 5 combined (videos first), with up to 20 comments per video plus one page of replies for comments that have them.

This is the heaviest add-on: worst case is roughly 5 videos x 22 requests, so expect a noticeable increase in run time.

Are add-on credits charged per channel or per item?

Per channel, not per item. Enabling the videos, shorts, streams, playlists and comments add-ons costs 15 credits in total per channel — that covers all 30 videos, all 30 shorts, all 30 playlists, all 30 streams and every comment collected, not 15 credits per video or per comment.

See the pricing calculator above for the exact cost of each add-on and to estimate your run.

What YouTube channel URLs can I use as input?

Any YouTube creator URL format works:

  1. @handle — https://www.youtube.com/@MrBeast
  2. /c/CustomName — https://www.youtube.com/c/MrBeast
  3. /channel/UC... — https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX6OQ3DkcsbYNE6H8uQQuVA
  4. /user/LegacyName — https://www.youtube.com/user/MrBeast6000
  5. Bare custom URL — https://www.youtube.com/MrBeast

How fast is this YouTube channel scraper?

Up to 60 channels per minute with no add-ons enabled. With all add-ons on (videos, shorts, streams, playlists and comments), speed drops to around 2 channels per minute — comments are the main cost, since each video needs its own set of requests.

You can also schedule the scraper to run repeatedly, so channel stats stay up to date without you starting each run manually.

What export formats are supported?

Download your results as CSV, JSON, JSONL or XLSX. You can also set up automated exports to Google Sheets and Amazon S3, and we ship built-in integrations for n8n and Make.com if you want the data pushed straight into an existing workflow.
