Comments by comment thread ID

This query allows you to retrieve comments for a specific comment thread on YouTube. You can fetch replies to a particular comment using its thread ID.

Parameters

Comment Thread ID

The unique identifier of the comment thread for which you want to retrieve replies.

  • Example: Ugzv0gulBJHNHd5HvKJ4AaABAg
  • This parameter is required.
  • Enter a single comment thread ID.

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.

    • Plain Text
  • This parameter is optional and advanced.
