This automation will export all the YouTube comments from one (or many) YouTube videos. All the comments will be exported to a .CSV spreadsheet that you can open with Excel or Google Sheets.

Along with the YouTube comments’ content, you’ll have all the related data: Author, date, likes, etc.

YouTube Comment Export use-cases

Exporting YouTube comments helps video creators and brands understand audiences better. Being able to read the exported YouTube comments in Excel make it easier to process large number, look for keywords, URLs.

It can also be used to do some sentiment analysis, or word cloud, and generate data on what people are talking about in each video, which one did they like, and so on.

If you want to export all the videos in a YouTube channel, take a look at our YouTube Channel Video Extractor.
