## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

# README

## 🎥 YouTube Comments Scraper

**Quickly extract structured comment data from one or more YouTube videos — including comment text, author info, timestamps, votes, and raw fields.**

Built to run as an **Apify actor**. This README shows a summary, inputs, outputs, examples, troubleshooting tips and proxy recommendations. 🔧

---

### ✨ Summary

This actor scrapes comments from YouTube video URLs and returns structured JSON objects per video, including:

* 💬 **Comments** (text, id, author, replies, likes/votes, timestamps)
* 👤 **Author info** (author name, author id, author url, avatar if available)
* 🧾 **Video metadata** (video id, video url, title, best-effort commentsCount)
* 📦 **Raw payload** — the original raw comment object is preserved for every comment so you don’t lose any fields.

**Key points:**

* Input: one or more YouTube video URLs (`startUrls`).
* Optional: `maxComments` to limit how many comments per video are scraped.
* Optional: `getAllComments` to ignore `maxComments` and fetch all available comments.
* Optional: `sortBy` — `top` (highest votes first) or `newest` (most recent first).


---

### 🚀 Highlights

* ⚡ Fast, structured output — one JSON object per video run.
* 🧩 Preserves full `raw` comment object for custom fields.
* 🎯 Exact `maxComments` support (when `getAllComments` is `false`) and `getAllComments` toggle.
* 🌐 Proxy-aware (Apify Proxy recommended for stability) — use RESIDENTIAL for best results.
* 🔁 Supports sorting by `top` or `newest`.

---

### 🛠️ Example Input

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iSL6sAnqiI",
    "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wT4HcYAeV5U"
  ],
  "maxComments": 100,
  "getAllComments": false,
  "sortBy": "top",
}
````

***

### 📤 Output

For every video the actor writes results both to the Apify dataset and to container files:

- `output_<videoId>.json` — full JSON object for the video (including `comments` array).
- `comments_<videoId>.jsonl` — newline-delimited JSON with one comment per line (good for streaming).
- Apify dataset entry for each video — downloadable from the Apify Console. ☁️
