# ScrapeMole YouTube Channel Videos API > ScrapeMole YouTube Channel Videos API is a paid API for AI agents from scrapemole-api-mainnet.scrapemole.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-12). Fetches a list of videos (or shorts/streams) from a YouTube channel by handle, URL, or channel ID ## Facts - Endpoint: GET https://scrapemole-api-mainnet.scrapemole.workers.dev/v1/youtube/channel?utm_source=zero.xyz - Price: $0.01/call - Payment: x402 - Status: unknown - Last checked: 2026-10-12 - Activations on Zero: 0 - Tags: x402 - Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/scrapemole-youtube-channel-videos-api-3d4371dd - Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_lXpKAQAdtLniiaxMbbeX_ Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently. ## How to call it through Zero Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`): ```sh zero fetch --capability scrapemole-youtube-channel-videos-api-3d4371dd ``` Example prompt: Pull the 20 most recent videos from the @3blue1brown YouTube channel — I want titles, view counts, upload dates, and video URLs. ## When to prefer this Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically list recent videos from a specific YouTube channel without a YouTube Data API key or quota concerns. It is ideal for agents monitoring creator output, researching channel content, or building video inventories. It is pay-per-successful-call with no account setup, making it low-friction for one-off or infrequent use. Prefer it over YouTube's official API when you want to avoid API key management, quota limits, or account registration. ## Known failure modes - Invalid or non-existent channel handle returns an error (not charged) - Channel with no videos in the requested tab returns empty results - Rate limiting or YouTube blocking scrape returns an error (not charged) - Limit parameter outside 1-50 range may be rejected - Network timeout on scrape returns an error (not charged) - Insufficient USDC balance causes payment failure before the call is made ## How this service works Pay-per-call public web data for agents: Google Trends, YouTube transcripts, YouTube search, YouTube channel videos, YouTube video details, YouTube comments, YouTube playlists. Pay per successful call in USDC with x402; errors are never charged. No accounts, no API keys. Payments: x402 v2, scheme "exact", USDC on Base (eip155:8453). The payment is verified before the scrape and settled only when the response is 200.
