YouTube's view count is calculated by combining each official version of a song, including the official music video, user-generated content that uses the official song, and lyric videos.

Disclaimer: YouTube doesn't aggregate views for all artists on charts.youtube.com, only for a portion of them.

If we’re not tracking the YouTube Artist profile and you want us to start tracking artists' views data across all channels featuring their music, use the Add artist link endpoint to submit a new source. The URL structure should look like this: https://charts.youtube.com/artist/slug.

Don't know the artist UUID yet? Use the Get artist by platform ID or Search artist by name endpoints.
