How this service works
Search for YouTube channels by keyword.
Output
A list of YouTube channels matching the search query, including channel names, IDs, descriptions, subscriber counts, and other available metadata, aggregated across the requested number of pages.
Example use cases
Influencer outreach research
“Find me YouTube channels focused on sustainable fashion — search across 2 pages so I have a solid list to reach out to for a brand partnership.”
Competitor channel discovery
“Search YouTube for channels about home automation and smart home tech, give me 2 pages of results so I can see who the main players are in that space.”
Content gap analysis for a niche
“Look up YouTube channels covering sourdough baking — just the first page is fine — I want to see what's already out there before I start my own channel.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://x402.apidirect.io/v1/youtube/channels?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to discover YouTube channels by topic or keyword, especially for influencer research, competitor analysis, or content landscape mapping. Prefer this over video-search endpoints when the goal is to identify channel-level entities rather than individual videos. It supports multi-page fetching for broader coverage.
Side effects
- Empty or overly broad query returning low-quality results
- pages parameter exceeding maximum of 20 causing validation error
- Query string exceeding 500 characters rejected by schema
- YouTube rate limiting or availability issues causing upstream failures
- No channels found for a very niche or misspelled query
