YouTube Scraper is user-friendly, offering a smooth start even for those who have never extracted data from YouTube before. Here's how to scrape YouTube with YouTube Scraper in 5 steps:
To start scraping YouTube, fill in the input form. YouTube Scraper supports six collection modes:
The results will be wrapped into CoreClaw run results. Here's an excerpt from the dataset you'd get when scraping a video URL:
When using Channel mode, the scraper first discovers video IDs from the channel page, then fetches detailed metadata for each video. You can sort results by Latest, Popular, or Oldest, and specify a start index to skip earlier videos.
Search Filter mode supports the following filter categories:
| Category | Options |
|---|---|
| Upload Date | Last hour, Today, This week, This month, This year |
| Content Type | Video, Channel, Playlist, Movie |
| Duration | Under 4 minutes, 4-20 minutes, Over 20 minutes |
| Features | Live, 4K, HD, Subtitles/CC, Creative Commons, 360°, VR180, Location, HDR, Purchased |
At least one filter must be set to a value other than None.
This Worker does not download YouTube video files. It returns public video metadata, thumbnail URLs, and description links. You can export those links from CoreClaw and process them in your own downstream system.
If the Worker cannot process an input, it returns a row with empty metadata fields. Common error scenarios include:
| Error scenario | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Empty video ID | The URL provided could not be parsed into a valid YouTube video ID |
| Network timeout | Connection to YouTube failed after all retry attempts |
| No video IDs found | Channel or search returned no results |
| Missing continuation token | Channel page structure changed, unable to paginate |
| At least one non-empty target is required | No targets were provided in the input |
| PROXY_DOMAIN environment variable is required | Proxy configuration is missing |

This Worker is intended for public YouTube data. It can only extract what users have chosen to share publicly. However, your results might contain personal data, so you should evaluate YouTube's terms, privacy rules, and the laws that apply to your use case before collecting, storing, or using the data. If you are unsure, consult a qualified legal professional.
YouTube public web endpoints and page structures can change. If a run fails, returns empty rows, or misses fields that were available before, inspect your input and run log first, then report the issue with a reproducible input example.
