# How to find a YouTube channel's email

YouTube hides the business email behind a captcha button. Here is how to get emails for many channels at once.

**Short answer**

Run the **YouTube Channel Email Finder** with a list of channels. It returns a contact row for each channel with `channelEmail`, social links and subscriber count, pulled from the description, links and the channel's website.

## A real use case

A VPN brand wants to sponsor 50 tech channels. They paste the 50 handles and get emails for 38 of them, plus Instagram and X links for the rest.

## Step by step

1. **Paste channels** as @handles or channel URLs.
2. **Turn on channel contact rows** and website reading.
3. **Keep results per source low** (3) if you only want contacts.
4. **Run** and filter rows where `resultType` is channel.

### Input (paste into the JSON tab)

```
{
  "channels": [
    "@techchannelone",
    "@techchanneltwo"
  ],
  "includeChannelContacts": true,
  "fetchChannelWebsite": true,
  "maxResultsPerSource": 3
}
```

### What you get back

```
{
  "resultType": "channel",
  "channelName": "Tech Channel One",
  "channelSubscribers": 412000,
  "channelEmail": "business@techchannelone.com",
  "channelEmailSource": "description",
  "instagramUrl": "https://instagram.com/techchannelone"
}
```

Trimmed example. Names and numbers are illustrative; your run returns real data with more fields.

## Tips

- The channel contact row is free; you pay for video rows.
- `hasBusinessEmail` tells you a channel has an email behind YouTube's button even when it is not published elsewhere.

## What it costs

$1.50 per 1,000 videos; contact rows are free. 50 channels × 3 videos cost about **$0.23**.

Plus a small per-run start fee. Apify's free plan includes monthly credit, enough to test. Check the listing for current pricing.

## FAQ

**Does it bypass YouTube's captcha?**

No. It reads emails published in the description, links and channel website.
