The whole base, with a key

Transcripts, classified sentences and comments are not published on this site: they are open to research projects through the explorer and the API, with a personal key and an access tier granted by the team.

The explorer

Browse videos, transcripts and comments; filter by channel, date or classifier; search by words or by meaning; export.

data.you-pol.com

The API

The same tables, over REST, by tier: metadata, the structure of sentences and comments, the text of transcripts, then the text of comments and corpus exports.

The four tiers

The R and Python clients

youpoldata (R) and youpol-client (Python) talk to the API with the key; their code is public and their examples cover the common uses.

r-youpol-data · youpol-client
R
remotes::install_github("antoinelemor/r-youpol-data")
library(youpoldata)
cli <- youpol_client()          # reads YOUPOL_TOKEN
youpol_videos(cli, country = "QC", order = "video_views.desc", limit = 10)
Python
pip install git+https://github.com/antoinelemor/youpol-client.git
from youpol_client import YouPol
yp = YouPol()                   # reads YOUPOL_TOKEN
yp.videos(country="FR", limit=10)
