Endpoint
POSThttps://stableapify.dev/api/actors/pintostudio/youtube-transcript-scraper/call?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to extract the spoken text content of a YouTube video programmatically, especially for summarization, research, content repurposing, or NLP tasks. Prefer this over manual caption download when operating at scale or inside an automated agent workflow. Choose this over generic web scrapers because it is purpose-built for YouTube's transcript/caption system.

- Invalid or malformed YouTube URL/video ID — input validation error
