Python 3.10.11 : testing zernio social platform with python.

Today, I get two free account on the zernio webpage.

This python script does three things:

First calls Zernio by sends GET https://zernio.com/api/v1/accounts using your Bearer token and loads the JSON response.

Then filters YouTube accounts: from the returned accounts[] list, it keeps only the items that look like YouTube (based on fields like platform/provider/network == "youtube").

Last one, prints and searches identifiers:

It prints the full JSON object for each connected YouTube account (first ~4000 characters), so you can see what fields Zernio returns.

It recursively scans that object for any string that matches a YouTube Channel ID pattern (strings starting with UC...) and prints the path and value for each match (e.g., meta.channelId = UCxxxx).

The result returns by printing to the console:

how many YouTube accounts Zernio returned.

the JSON for each YouTube account object.

a list of candidate channelId strings (and where they appear in the JSON).

Let's see the script:

import requests
import json
import re

ZERNIO_TOKEN = "sk_API_KEY"
API_BASE = "https://zernio.com/api/v1"

headers = {
    "Authorization": f"Bearer {ZERNIO_TOKEN}",
    "Accept": "application/json",
}

def is_youtube_account(acc: dict) -> bool:
    for k in ("platform", "provider", "network"):
        v = acc.get(k)
        if isinstance(v, str) and v.lower() == "youtube":
            return True
    return False

def find_uc_strings(obj, path=""):
    hits = []
    if isinstance(obj, dict):
        for k, v in obj.items():
            hits += find_uc_strings(v, f"{path}.{k}" if path else k)
    elif isinstance(obj, list):
        for i, v in enumerate(obj):
            hits += find_uc_strings(v, f"{path}[{i}]")
    elif isinstance(obj, str):
        # Typical YouTube channel id: starts with UC and is 24 chars, but we’ll be flexible
        if re.match(r"^UC[a-zA-Z0-9_-]{10,}$", obj):
            hits.append((path, obj))
    return hits

resp = requests.get(f"{API_BASE}/accounts", headers=headers, timeout=30)
resp.raise_for_status()
data = resp.json()

accounts = data.get("accounts", [])
yt = [a for a in accounts if is_youtube_account(a)]

print(f"Found {len(yt)} YouTube accounts in Zernio.\n")

for idx, acc in enumerate(yt):
    print(f"--- YouTube account #{idx} full object ---")
    print(json.dumps(acc, ensure_ascii=False, indent=2)[:4000])  # first 4000 chars
    print()

    hits = find_uc_strings(acc)
    print("Possible channelId candidates (paths):")
    for p, v in hits:
        print(f"  - {p} = {v}")
    print()

This is a part of result:
