⚡ YouTube Channel Scraper — Every Video by Channel (No Login, No API Key)

Scrape any YouTube channel's full video catalog without a login, API key, or Google quota. Drop in channel URLs, @handles, or UC ids and get back every video — title, view count, published time, length, channel, thumbnail and watch URL. Export to JSON, CSV or Excel, call it from the API, or have results delivered straight to Notion. Just $0.40 per 1,000 videos — built for competitor tracking, content research, channel audits and feeding LLM pipelines.

> No Google account. No OAuth. No Data API quota to manage. Paste a handle and run.

Why this scraper wins

🔓 Keyless & login-free — talks to YouTube's internal InnerTube (youtubei/v1) API directly. No API key, no OAuth, no cookies, no PoToken.
🚫 No 10,000-unit quota — the official YouTube Data API caps you and bills per call. This actor has no quota ceiling; scrape thousands of videos per run.
💸 Flat $0.0004 per video returned — no volume tiers, no plan gates. Failed or empty runs cost nothing.
🧩 Flexible input — channel URL, @handle, or raw UC… id all resolve automatically.
🧹 Clean, flat records — one tidy object per video, ready for sheets, dashboards or LLM prompts. Auto-deduplicated by video id.
📬 Built-in Notion delivery — push every run into Notion via Apify connectors, zero extra code.
🚦 Honest errors — a clear diagnostic row (BLOCKED, NO_RESULTS, BAD_INPUT, NETWORK) instead of silent emptiness.

What you can scrape

Input you give	What you get back
Channel URL (`https://www.youtube.com/@mkbhd`)	That channel's Videos tab, newest first
@handle (`@MrBeast`)	Resolved automatically, then its full video list
UC id (`UCX6OQ3DkcsbYNE6H8uQQuVA`)	Channel videos with no resolve step

Multiple channels per run are supported — pass several and the actor walks each one.

Input

channelUrls — list of channel URLs, @handles, or UC… ids to scrape.
maxItems — max videos to collect across all channels (default 50, max 2000). You pay per video returned.
proxyConfiguration — proxy settings; Apify datacenter proxy is preconfigured and works fine for YouTube.
notionConnector *(optional)* — Notion connector id for automatic delivery via Apify MCP connectors.
notionParentId *(optional)* — Notion database / data-source id to write rows into.

Results are deduplicated by videoId. The dataset's table view shows Title · Channel · Views · Published · URL at a glance.

Pricing

$0.40 per 1,000 videos ($0.0004 each), with no run-start fee. Flat rate — no volume tiers, no plan gates — and you are charged only for videos actually returned.

Results are deduplicated by videoId before charging, so a paginated walk of a large channel never bills the same video twice, and failed or empty runs are free. A full 2,000-video pull — the per-run maximum — costs $0.80.

> Price change on 19 August 2026: the per-video price stays at $0.0004, and a $0.001 run-start fee is added to each run from that date.

FAQ

Do I need a YouTube or Google account? No. Public channels work fully keyless — no login, no OAuth, no Data API key.

How is this different from the YouTube Data API? The official API requires a key and burns a daily quota (default 10,000 units, exhausted fast). This actor uses YouTube's own InnerTube endpoints with no quota and no key.

Can I pass a @handle instead of a full URL? Yes — @handle, full channel URL, and raw UC… id all work. Handles and URLs are resolved automatically.

How many videos can I pull per channel? Up to maxItems (max 2000), paginated through the channel's Videos tab via continuation tokens.

I got a NO_RESULTS / BAD_INPUT row — why? That's the actor telling you exactly what happened (couldn't resolve the channel, or no videos found) instead of failing silently.

What does a 500-video channel cost? $0.20 today. From 19 August 2026, $0.201 — the extra $0.001 is the run-start fee, charged once per run however many videos come back.
