Channel GET

Returns a YouTube channel's public profile: subscriber count on author.followers (rounded above 1,000), video and view totals, description, banner and avatar URLs, and author.ext.public_email. Use it when you have a handle, channel id, or channel URL and want an account snapshot before pulling its videos. **20 credits** per call. Re-running the exact same call within 24h is free.

Playlist › Items GET

Returns the videos of a playlist in playlist order, each with video id, title, thumbnail, the video's own channel, its publish date, and its position and insertion time on post.ext. Use it when you have a playlist id; add include=engagement for counts and durations. Same rows as playlist, which has a second source behind it. **Metered: 20–220 credits.** We reserve the ceiling when the call starts and charge what it actually used when it finishes. Re-running the exact same call within 6h is free. Paginates by `cursor` — see [Pagination](/docs/pagination).
