#️⃣ YouTube Hashtag Scraper

🕒 Last updated: 2026-05-05

Collect videos and Shorts from any YouTube hashtag page in seconds. Extract titles, view counts, publish dates, durations, channel names, channel IDs, verified status, avatars, and animated preview thumbnails for every result. Perfect for content researchers, social media managers, marketers, and creators who need to track trending topics, monitor competitors, or build content calendars. Search terms like "youtube hashtag scraper no coding," "download youtube hashtag video list," "track youtube trending hashtags," and "export youtube hashtag data to Excel" all lead here.

The YouTube Hashtag Scraper collects up to 19 data fields per video from any YouTube hashtag page, with support for filtering by content type and running multiple hashtags in a single run.

✨ What Does It Do

• 🔍 Hashtag Discovery - scan any YouTube hashtag page and collect every video and Short listed under it to understand what content performs best for a given topic
• 📊 View Count Tracking - capture exact view counts as both a formatted string and a clean integer so you can sort and analyze engagement at scale
• 🎬 Content Type Detection - automatically identify whether each result is a regular video or a Short based on the YouTube routing, with no manual sorting needed
• ⏱️ Duration Data - extract video length as both a human readable string and a numeric value in seconds to filter content by length with precision
• 🖼️ Animated Preview Thumbnails - collect the animated preview thumbnail URL available on regular videos so you can build richer previews in your own tools
• 📺 Full Channel Profiles - get channel name, channel ID, channel URL, avatar image, and verified status for every creator in the results
• 🏷️ Multi Keyword Runs - process multiple hashtag keywords in a single run and get labeled results with the source keyword for each item

🔧 Input

• Hashtag Keywords - Enter one or more hashtag keywords without the # symbol. Each keyword is processed separately and results are labeled with the source keyword
• Max Items per Keyword - Set how many videos to collect per hashtag. Free users: up to 100 total. Paid users: up to 1,000,000 per keyword
• Content Type - Filter results to All content, Videos only, or Shorts only. Defaults to All

{
"keywords":["ai","gaming","cooking"],
