How to build a YouTube Channel Auditor

Media agencies and brand safety teams still keep a quiet “channel sheet” before a YouTube sponsorship: resolve the username, read about metadata, and pin the public subscriber string. This is that sheet as two Socify calls under /youtube/user.

Logic behind the screen

Passing username on /youtube/user resolves the UC… browse id internally, then /youtube/subscribers reads the public count string. Sponsorship ops use this pair to confirm the channel identity matches the brief before negotiating CPM.

  1. Resolve by username

    GET /api/v1/youtube/user?username=… runs name-to-id then detailed-info in one client call. You get about text, canonical URL, and subscriber text when present.

  2. Pin the subscriber string

    GET /api/v1/youtube/subscribers?browse_id=… returns the public count label media buyers put on the deal sheet (e.g. 200M).

  3. Ship the audit object

    Combine username, browse id, about snippet, and subscriber label into one JSON screen: the same shape internal tools stash in a CRM field before legal reviews the creator agreement.
