Input schema

Input fields, types, required flags, descriptions, defaults, and prefills come from the published definition. Prefill examples are distinct from defaults.

Field	Type	Required	Description
`searchQueries`	array	required	One or more YouTube search terms. Each query is scraped separately and its results are combined in the dataset.
`maxResults`	integer	optional	Maximum number of results per query. YouTube may serve fewer rows for a given query, entity type, session, or IP; the run reports the requested and actual counts and whether the result pool was exhausted.
`scrapeAllResults`	boolean	optional	Keep loading pages until YouTube stops offering results. This ignores Max Results Per Query and can take longer on broad searches.

YouTube Search Results & Entity Type Scraper

Search YouTube without cookies or API keys and get structured rows for videos, Shorts, channels, playlists, and movies. Use YouTube's own filters, follow pagination, and optionally enrich every video with exact views and likes, dates when YouTube exposes them, and categories or tags when available.

What this actor does

Five result types: videos, Shorts, channels, playlists, and movies.
All-result mode: mix the entity types in YouTube's own order.
Server-side filters: upload date, duration, sort order, video features, market, and interface language.
Pagination: follow continuation tokens until your limit or YouTube's own ceiling.
Optional details: one detail request per video (plus fallback calls when needed) adds exact views and likes, dates when exposed, tags, and the full description.
Bulk queries: run several searches in one job.
Cookieless: public search data only. No login, no browser, no proxy setup.
Omit-empty output: a row only contains values that are actually available.

Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
`searchQueries`	array	—	One or more YouTube search terms. Duplicate terms are removed.
`maxResults`	integer	`20`	Results per query (1-1000). YouTube caps each entity type below 1000.
`scrapeAllResults`	boolean	`false`	Follow pages until YouTube stops returning results, ignoring `maxResults`.
`sortBy`	string	`relevance`	`relevance` or `view_count`. YouTube no longer supports date or rating sorting.
`uploadDate`	string	any	`last_hour`, `today`, `this_week`, `this_month`, or `this_year`.
`type`	string	all	`video`, `short`, `channel`, `playlist`, or `movie`.
`duration`	string	any	`short` (under 3 min), `medium` (3-20 min), or `long` (over 20 min).
`features`	array	`[]`	`hd`, `subtitles`, `creative_commons`, `live`, `4k`, `hdr`, `360`, `vr180`, `3d`. Multiple values are combined.
`market`	string	`US`	Country used for YouTube's search context. 31 markets are available.
`language`	string	`auto`	Interface language. `auto` follows the market.
`includeVideoDetails`	boolean	`false`	Fetch each video's detail payload for exact views, likes, and duration, plus dates, category, tags, and the full description when YouTube exposes them.

Example: video search

{
  "searchQueries": ["web scraping tutorial", "python automation"],
  "maxResults": 50,
  "type": "video",
  "sortBy": "view_count",
  "uploadDate": "this_year"
}

Example: Shorts

{
  "searchQueries": ["lofi beats"],
  "type": "short",
  "maxResults": 100
}

Example: channels

{
  "searchQueries": ["python tutorials"],
  "type": "channel",
  "market": "GB"
}

Example: exact video details

{
  "searchQueries": ["apify"],
  "type": "video",
  "maxResults": 20,
  "includeVideoDetails": true
}

Output

Every result row has type, position (1-based within the query), searchQuery, and scrapedAt. When YouTube exposes an estimate for the query, estimatedResults is added to each row.

Video and movie rows

Field	Example
videoId	`"dQw4w9WgXcQ"`
title	`"Never Gonna Give You Up"`
url	`"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ"`
description	result-card snippet
channelName	`"Rick Astley"`
channelId	`"UCuAXFkgsw1L7..."`
channelUrl	`"https://www.youtube.com/@RickAstley"`
channelHandle	`"@RickAstley"` when the byline links to a handle
channelVerified	`true` when the uploader has a verified badge
viewCount	exact integer when the card or details provide one
viewCountText	`"1.6B views"` or `"42,963 views"` (verbatim)
publishedTimeText	`"2 years ago"`
publishedAt	ISO 8601 UTC timestamp when a full time is exposed (`includeVideoDetails` only)
likeCount	exact integer (`includeVideoDetails` only)
category	`"Science & Technology"` when exposed (`includeVideoDetails` only)
tags	array of video keywords when exposed (`includeVideoDetails` only)
fullDescription	full description text (`includeVideoDetails` only)
duration	`"3:33"`
durationSeconds	`213`
thumbnails	array of `{url, width, height}`
richThumbnailUrl	animated preview URL when available
badges	result-card badges such as `["CC", "4K"]`
isLive	`true` for a live broadcast
isUpcoming	`true` for a scheduled premiere or live event
scheduledStartTime	ISO 8601 start time for upcoming videos (`includeVideoDetails` only)
concurrentViewers	current viewer count on a live card

Channel rows

Field	Example
channelId	`"UCxxxxxx"`
channelName	`"Python Programmer"`
channelUrl	`"https://www.youtube.com/@gilesmcmullen"`
handle	`"@gilesmcmullen"`
channelHandle	same handle, for consistency with video rows
description	search-card snippet
subscriberCount	approximate integer from YouTube's rounded label
subscriberCountText	`"782K subscribers"`
videoCount / videoCountText	only when YouTube shows a video count on the card
thumbnails	array of avatar images
isVerified	true or false

Playlist and course rows

Field	Example
playlistId	`"PLxxxxxxx"`
title	`"Python Full Course"`
url	`"https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxxxxxxx"`
channelName	`"CodeWithHarry"`
channelId	`"UCxxxxxx"`
channelUrl	`"https://www.youtube.com/@CodeWithHarry"`
channelHandle	`"@CodeWithHarry"`
videoCount / videoCountText	`100` / `"100 lessons"` when available
firstVideoId	first video shown on the card
thumbnails	array of playlist thumbnails

Shorts rows

Field	Example
videoId	`"abc123"`
title	`"A short example"`
url	`"https://www.youtube.com/shorts/abc123"`
viewCount	exact integer only when YouTube shows an unabridged count
viewCountText	`"1.2M views"` (verbatim)
thumbnails	vertical thumbnails
badge	card badge when present
isShort	`true`

With includeVideoDetails, Shorts also gain channelName, channelId, channelUrl, channelHandle, publishedAt, likeCount, durationSeconds, category, and tags.

Status rows

A typed query with no results produces one status row: recordType: "status", status: "no_results", query, market, resultType, appliedFilters, and resultCount: 0. A failed query produces status: "query_failed" with an error string.

How row limits work

YouTube serves a variable number of results for the same query. There is no fixed ceiling: the same news query returned 343-373 videos, 14-24 Shorts, 601-685 mixed rows, 134-367 channels, 357-461 playlists, and 204 movies on different runs and IPs. Set scrapeAllResults to follow pages until YouTube stops offering results, or use maxResults for a smaller slice. When the requested count is not reached, the status message reports the requested and actual counts and whether the query pool was exhausted, stopped after repeated empty pages, or lost its continuation. It does not claim a fixed ceiling.

Limitations

Date and rating sorts are not available. YouTube removed them; the UI suggests only relevance and view count. Saved tasks that still send sortBy: "upload_date" or "rating" are accepted and mapped to relevance with a warning.
Subscriber counts are rounded. YouTube only publishes display labels for search results, so subscriberCount is an approximation and subscriberCountText is the verbatim label. Localized labels are parsed, including Japanese チャンネル登録者数 184万人 and Korean 구독자 8.65만명.
Some exact fields need a full player response. On datacenter IPs YouTube can return a reduced response. Exact views, likes, and duration normally resolve, but publishedAt can be date-only or absent and category/tags can be omitted. The actor never fills these with zero or a placeholder.
Live view counts are a live counter. For an active stream, the detail viewCount follows the current live counter and is not comparable to lifetime views. Use concurrentViewers on the card for the live audience.
Shorts can stop early. Repeated empty continuation pages can end a Shorts run before the requested count. The run succeeds and the status message reports the requested and actual counts.
No comment counts. Comments are handled by the dedicated YouTube comments actor.
Shorts cards are sparse. Without includeVideoDetails, YouTube does not expose channel, date, duration, or exact views on a Shorts card.
Movies are YouTube's "Movies" filter. It returns movie-catalog videos; some are full films, some are clips or episodes.
Results vary between runs. YouTube personalizes and re-ranks search results over time.
Detail fields can be withheld. On some datacenter IPs YouTube returns a limited player response. The actor tries a second player client and the watch-next payload; fields that remain unavailable (viewCount, category, tags, publishedAt) are omitted, never filled with zero or a placeholder.
Location and Purchased filters are not offered. They return no cookieless results. Saved tasks that send features: ["location"], ["purchased"], or ["cc"] are accepted: cc maps to subtitles, the other two are ignored with a warning.

FAQ

Do I need cookies or a YouTube API key?

No. The actor reads public search results with no credentials.

Which result types can I request?

Videos, Shorts, channels, playlists, and movies. Leave type empty for mixed results. Saved tasks that send the plural shorts are mapped to the Shorts type.

Why did I get fewer rows than maxResults?

YouTube serves a variable number of rows and there is no fixed ceiling. The status message reports the requested and actual counts and whether the query pool was exhausted or stopped after repeated empty pages. Some Shorts searches can stop early; the same shortfall message applies.

What does includeVideoDetails add?

Exact views, likes, and duration, plus publish date, category, tags, full description, and upcoming/live state when YouTube exposes them. It costs one or more requests per video and makes the run slower.

Why is viewCount missing on some rows?

YouTube shows rounded labels such as 1.6B views on many cards. The actor keeps viewCountText but does not turn a rounded label into a fake exact number. Enable includeVideoDetails for exact views.

Why is a channel's subscriber count approximate?

Search cards only show rounded labels such as 782K subscribers.

Are Shorts supported without details?

Yes. Title, URL, views text, and thumbnails are available. Channel, date, duration, and exact views require includeVideoDetails.

Can I run several searches at once?

Yes. Add them to searchQueries; each query gets its own position sequence and searchQuery value.

Python quickstart

Use a schema-derived input and the Python standard library to start a run. An Apify account and token are required for execution.
