Search YouTube by keyword and get back structured video results — titles, video IDs, view counts, upload dates, channel info, thumbnails, and durations — without needing the YouTube Data API or managing API quotas. Useful for trend tracking, content research, and monitoring video performance around a topic.
What you'll see in this video:
→ GET /youtube/search with query, type=video, and pagination parameters
→ Response fields: title, video_id, full URL, view_count, published_at, channel name, channel ID, thumbnail URL, and video duration
→ Filtering to video-only results with type=video to avoid channels and playlists in the response
Who this is for:
• Developers building trend trackers or content monitoring tools that need to query YouTube by keyword
• SEO and content teams researching which videos rank for a topic and their view counts
• Market researchers surfacing popular YouTube content around a product, brand, or industry
• Data engineers building YouTube data pipelines for analysis without hitting Data API quotas
Also in the YouTube scraper:
