YouTube Channel ID Finder

Every YouTube channel has a permanent ID starting with "UC" — needed for APIs, RSS feeds, embeds and analytics tools. Handles and custom URLs change; the channel ID never does. Paste any channel URL or @handle above and get the ID instantly. Free, no signup, no API key.

What works as input

• @handles — like @mrbeast
• Full URLs — youtube.com/@handle, /channel/UC…, /c/name, /user/name
• A video URL from the channel
