• Retries after a bot check or a temporary error cost you nothing. You pay only for rows saved.
• An input that fails after all retries saves one error row so you can see what failed and why. Error rows are free.
• On Apify's free plan a run stops at 20 rows. Any paid Apify plan removes this limit.
• Set Max total charge per run in the run options. The Actor stops cleanly at that limit and keeps every row saved so far.

What you can count on

• Same columns on every row. Missing values are null, so spreadsheets and databases never break.
• No silent failures. An input that fails gets an error row with errorCode and a plain-language errorMessage. The other inputs keep running.
• A clear run summary. The run status says how many results were saved, how many inputs failed, and why. The same numbers are saved as the RUN_SUMMARY record in the run's key-value store, for automations.
• Automatic retries. Bot checks and temporary errors are retried with a fresh request before an input counts as failed.
• Limits respected. Max results and your spending limit stop the run cleanly.

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("plumblinedata/google-videos-scraper").call(run_input={"queries": ["adidas"], "pages": 1, "maxResults": 10})
for row in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(row)

JavaScript (npm install apify-client):

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_API_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('plumblinedata/google-videos-scraper').call({"queries": ["adidas"], "pages": 1, "maxResults": 10});

AI agents (MCP): add https://mcp.apify.com?tools=plumblinedata/google-videos-scraper to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. The agent can call this Actor as a tool with the same input as above.

Limitations

• Length, channel, and post time come from the video card. Channel or profile pages in the results have no length.
• View counts are not shown in Google video results.

FAQ

No. source shows the platform: YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and others.

How do I scrape Google video search results?

Put your search terms in Search queries (queries) and run. Each video becomes a row with title, URL, platform, channel, length, and post time.

How to find TikTok and YouTube videos on a topic from Google

How to track which videos rank on Google for a keyword

What does an error row mean?

Can I run it on a schedule?

Yes. Create a task with your input in Apify Console, then add a schedule (for example every day at 8:00).

Is it legal to collect this data?
