The following example is illustrative. ```json theme={null} { "success": true, "data": { "results": [ { "title": "How to bake sourdough bread at home", "url": "https://www.example.com/watch?v=abc123", "site": "YouTube", "channelName": "Example Bakery", "durationSeconds": 754, "publishedAt": "2026-09-12T00:00:00.000Z", "description": "A step by step guide to your first sourdough loaf.", "position": 1 } ], "page": 1 }, "creditsUsed": 1, "requestId": "2fe9dbad-fc48-4890-9751-0b24b596035b" } ``` | Field | Type | Description | | - | - | - | | `site` | string | Where the video is hosted, such as YouTube. | | `publishedAt` | string (ISO 8601) | Approximate when Google shows only how long ago, such as 1 month ago. | | `page` | integer | The page number of this response. | | `position` | integer | The 1-based position of the result in the list. | | `durationSeconds` | integer | The duration, in seconds. | For every field, see the response schema on this page. ## Optional parameters | Parameter | Type | Description | | - | - | - | | `country` | string | The country to query, as a two-letter ISO 3166-1 code such as `us`. | | `language` | string | The language of the results, as a two-letter ISO 639-1 code such as `en`. | | `includeDomains` | string\[] | Restricts results to results from these domains. Accepts up to 10 values. | | `excludeDomains` | string\[] | Leave out results from these domains. Accepts up to 10 values. | | `time` | string | Restricts results to results from this period. Leave it out for any time. Acceptable values are `pastHour`, `past24Hours`, `pastWeek`, `pastMonth` and `pastYear`. | | `duration` | string | Video length: `short` is under 4 minutes, `medium` is 4 to 20 and `long` is over 20. Acceptable values are `short`, `medium` and `long`. | | `highQuality` | boolean | Restricts results to high quality videos. If unset, defaults to `false`. | | `closedCaptioned` | boolean | Restricts results to videos with captions. If unset, defaults to `false`. | | `page` | integer | The page to return. Pages are numbered from 1. Must be between 1 and 20. If unset, defaults to `1`. | ## Billing Each successful request consumes 1 credit, regardless of the number of items returned. Requests that fail, or that return no items, are not billed. ## Pagination Results are paginated. To retrieve the next page, increment `page`. An empty `data.results` indicates the last page. The maximum value of `page` is 20. ## Related methods * [YouTube video](/api-reference/endpoint/youtube-video): Accepts a YouTube `url` as `videoUrl`. Returns a video's stats, description, chapters and most replayed moments. * [YouTube transcript](/api-reference/endpoint/youtube-transcript): Accepts a YouTube `url` as `videoUrl`. Returns what a YouTube video says, from its captions. * [TikTok video](/api-reference/endpoint/tiktok-video): Accepts a TikTok `url` as `videoUrl`.

Unknown fields are rejected with 400. Responses leave out empty values: null, empty strings, empty objects and empty nested lists are not sent. x-credits is what one call costs. Every call costs the same, whatever it returns, unless an operation's description says it costs per 10 results, or per second of audio. Then x-credits is the lowest price and x-credits-max the most one call can cost. Where an operation takes limit, send it to return fewer results and pay for fewer. When a response has a cursor, send it back unchanged with the same input to get the next page. When it has a page, send the next page number. servers: - url: https://api.stophy.dev security: - apiKey: [] paths: /v1/google/videos: post: summary: >- Search Google's Videos tab for videos from every site, with duration and channel description: Costs 1 credit per call.
