YouTube Channel contact API
Reveal the business inquiry email a YouTube creator publishes behind the channel's View email address button. YouTube gates that address behind a signed-in Google session and a CAPTCHA, so it is absent from the channel page a logged-out scraper reads.

| Request body | ||

| Response | ||
| data | object | The revealed contact details, or null when no address came back. |
| data.email | string | The business inquiry email the creator published on the channel's About tab, as YouTube reveals it behind the View email address button. This is the address YouTube gates behind a signed-in session, so it is often different from any address written into the channel description. |
| found | boolean | True when a business inquiry email was revealed for the channel. False means no address came back, which covers three cases this upstream does not tell apart: the channel publishes no business email, the channel does not exist, or the reveal did not get past YouTube's CAPTCHA on this attempt. Treat false as no address on this call, not as proof the creator has none. |
