Returns comments on a video, each with the author name, comment text, like count, reply count, and publish timestamp. Use it for a video's top-level comments, then pass the reply token it returns to video/comment/replies to open a single thread. **Metered: 20–100 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).
Video › Sponsors GET
Returns whether a video carries a paid-promotion disclosure plus the brands likely sponsoring it, each with supporting evidence and a confidence score. Use it to spot sponsored videos and who paid; sponsors are inferred from the description, links, promo codes, and transcript, not stated by YouTube. **200 credits** per call.
