Maximum Results

Specifies the maximum number of results to return. The API natively supports 50 results for this type of query.

Note: Pagination allows Tube2Sheet to retrieve more than the 50 results natively supported by the YouTube API for this query type. When you request more than 50 results, Tube2Sheet automatically makes multiple API calls, each retrieving up to 50 results, to fulfill your request. Each of these calls counts separately against your monthly request quota, so requesting 500 results would use 10 requests from your quota.
