Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

YouTube Data Scraper - Videos & Channels — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no tool list for YouTube Data Scraper - Videos & Channels?

How do I connect YouTube Data Scraper - Videos & Channels?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address. You will need your own key: it refuses anonymous clients.

Does YouTube Data Scraper - Videos & Channels need an API key?
