> [!NOTE]
>
> Tool ID: `scrapecreators_youtube_channel_search`

## Run this action

Use the TypeScript SDK for one call. Use `ctx.tools.execute(...)` inside a Play for durable calls, scheduled calls, or CSV processing.

```ts theme={"languages":{"custom":["/languages/deepline-prompt.json"]}}
import { Deepline } from 'deepline';

const deepline = await Deepline.connect();
const result = await deepline.tools.execute(
  'scrapecreators_youtube_channel_search',
  {
    "handle": "example",
    "query": "software companies hiring engineers"
  },
);

console.log(result.toolResponse.raw);
```

### CLI

```bash theme={"languages":{"custom":["/languages/deepline-prompt.json"]}}
deepline tools execute scrapecreators_youtube_channel_search --input '{
  "handle": "example",
  "query": "software companies hiring engineers"
}' --json
```

## Example response

The static output schema lacks the details for a reliable example. Use `deepline describe scrapecreators_youtube_channel_search --json` for the complete live contract.

## Input reference

Search within one YouTube channel using YouTube's native channel search, not global search or local filtering of the channel's latest videos. Pass a handle with or without @ and a keyword query. Results can include videos, Shorts, live streams and playlists in separate collections. Keep the same handle and query when passing the previous response's continuationToken. Stop when continuationToken is null. passing the literal continuationToken=null returns an uncharged terminal response. YouTube can repeat results across pages, so deduplicate by item ID if needed. No sort, date, duration or result-count filters are supported by this endpoint. The response example is shortened from a real search. result order, counts and pagination tokens can change.
