⚡ YouTube Comments Scraper — Every Comment, No Login, No API Key

Pull comments from any YouTube video without a login, API key, cookies, or quota. Paste watch URLs (or bare video IDs) and get back every comment — text, like count, reply count, author, verified status, timestamp and more. Export to JSON, CSV or Excel, call it from the API, or have results delivered straight to Notion. Just $0.25 per 1,000 comments, billed per comment actually returned.

No Google account. No OAuth. No Data API key to register. No daily quota. Paste a video link and run.

Why this scraper wins

• 🔓 Keyless & login-free — no Google sign-in, no OAuth, no YouTube Data API key, and none of the API's 10,000-unit daily quota.
• 💸 Cheaper & unlimited — the official Data API caps you and rate-limits hard; this pulls thousands of comments per video for $0.25 / 1,000, and empty/failed runs cost nothing.
• 🧹 Clean, flat records — one tidy object per comment, ready for sheets, sentiment analysis, dashboards or LLM pipelines.
• 🧵 Replies included — top-level comments and replies, each flagged with isReply.
• 📬 Built-in Notion delivery — push every run into Notion via Apify connectors, zero extra code.
• 🚦 Honest errors — a clear diagnostic row (NO_RESULTS, BLOCKED, RATE_LIMITED, NETWORK) when a video has comments disabled or YouTube throttles, instead of silent emptiness.

What you can scrape

You can mix multiple videos in one run; maxComments is split fairly across them.

Input

• videoUrls — YouTube watch / short / youtu.be URLs to scrape comments from.
• videoIds — or bare 11-character video IDs.
• maxComments — total comments to pull across all videos (default 100, max 10000). You pay per comment.
• proxyConfiguration — Apify Proxy (datacenter is plenty for YouTube; preconfigured).
• notionConnector / notionParentId — optional Notion delivery (connector ID + data-source ID).

Pricing

$0.25 per 1,000 comments (pay-per-event). You are charged only for comments actually returned — videos with comments disabled or blocked runs cost nothing.

FAQ

Do I need a YouTube or Google account? No. Public videos' comments are scraped keyless — no login, OAuth, or Data API key.

How is this different from the official YouTube Data API? The Data API requires a registered key and burns a tight 10,000-unit daily quota. This actor needs neither and pulls comments far past those limits for a flat per-comment price.

Are replies included? Yes. Both top-level comments and replies are returned, each marked with isReply.

A video returned a NO_RESULTS row — why? That video has comments disabled or unavailable. The actor tells you exactly what happened instead of failing silently.

Can I deliver straight to Notion? Yes — supply a notionConnector ID and notionParentId and every comment is pushed to your Notion data source automatically.
