Inputs

Output

Shape of the run’s result, checked against 1 real answer:

{ name, tags, email, links: string[], avatar: { image: { sources: { ... }[] }, avatarImageSize }, banner: { url, width, height }[], handle, tiktok, channel, country, success, keywords: string[], channelId, instagram, subscribe, viewCount, isVerified, videoCount, description, isFamilySafe, youtube_blog, viewCountText, videoCountText, credits_charged, subscriberCount, credits_remaining, subscriberCountText }

Run it

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"scrapecreators-youtube-channel","input":{"url":"jane.doe@example.com","handle":"<handle>","channelId":"<channelId>","cache_max_age":"7d"},"wait":30}'

const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "scrapecreators-youtube-channel",
    input: {

      handle: "<handle>",
      channelId: "<channelId>",
      cache_max_age: "7d",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
