FAQ

YouTube Channel Videos API questions

How much does the YouTube Channel Videos API cost?

1 credit per successful call. Errors and cached results are free, and new accounts start with 100 free credits, no card required. See pricing.

Do I need a YouTube account or API key?

No. You only need a Scraperize API key, sent in the x-api-key header. Scraperize returns publicly available data. No YouTube login or developer app is needed.

How fresh is the data?

Each call fetches the data live. To trade freshness for cost, pass cache_max_age (e.g. 1h, 1d) to get a recent cached result instantly for 0 credits.

How do I get more results?

Each response includes a cursor. Send it back as the cursor parameter with the same other parameters to get the next page. It is null on the last page.

Where are the full parameters and response fields?

In the API reference, with every parameter, field and error.
