Returns the posts on a channel's Posts tab, each with post id, URL, text, images, attached video, like count, publish time, and channel info.
Use it to read a channel's text and image posts in bulk; community-post fetches one post when you already have its URL.
10 credits per call.
Paginates by cursor: see Pagination.

Query Parameters
YouTube channel ID. Provide at least one of: channelId, handle.
YouTube channel handle (with or without @). Provide at least one of: channelId, handle.
Only rows published on or after this date: YYYY-MM-DD (midnight UTC) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Rows older than it are left off each page. This list is not in date order, so the walk does not stop at the date: keep following next_cursor, and each page costs what a page costs even when every row on it is filtered out. A row with no date is kept.
Only rows published on or before this date: YYYY-MM-DD (that whole UTC day is included) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Newer rows are left off each page and the walk does not stop, so older pages follow. A row with no date is kept.
The pagination.next_cursor from the previous page, sent back unchanged. Omit it for the first page.
Set to 1 to get the price of this call without making it: data.dry_run carries credits_min and credits_max. Nothing is charged.
