## What is an `activity` resource?

Users and channels can perform several actions on YouTube, such as commenting on a video, posting a video, adding a video to a playlist, subscribing to a channel, and more. The details regarding these actions are stored in the **`activity`** resource. A single `activity` resource defines the action type, the channel that performed the action, and the resource associated with the action. For example, for a channel uploading a video, the `activity` resource would include `upload` as the type of action, the channel's name, and the video uploaded.
