YouTube Metadata API → GET

AI-generated

Summary

Fetches detailed metadata for a YouTube video through ScrapingBee’s YouTube Metadata API, using the supplied video ID. Sends a GET request and returns the response as JSON, text data, or binary data depending on the response content type.

Inputs

  • Video ID (required) — YouTube video ID sent as the video_id query parameter.
  • Tag — Optional label returned in the response headers; it does not change scraping behavior.

Output shape

A single n8n item per input item; JSON responses are returned as their parsed object, text responses as { "data": "..." }, and other content types as binary data under binary.data.

Requires ScrapingBee credentials. If JSON parsing fails, the response is returned as { "raw": "..." }. With Continue On Fail enabled, errors are returned as `{ "error": "..." }.
