This Python script scrapes live chat messages from a YouTube video using the pytchat library and saves the chat data to a CSV file.

Before running the script, ensure you have the following:

• Python 3.x
• The pytchat library installed

You can install the pytchat library using pip:

pip install pytchat

Replace "youtube video id" with the actual YouTube video ID from which you want to scrape live chat messages.

videoid = "your_youtube_video_id"

The chat messages will be saved in a CSV file. You can specify the desired file name:

file_name = "chat.csv"

Execute the script to start scraping live chat messages and saving them to the specified CSV file.

python youtube-api-live-chat.py

• Ensure that the YouTube video ID is correct and that the live chat is active for the script to function properly.
• The script will continue running as long as the live chat is active. To stop the script, you can manually terminate it.
