Triggers can be scheduled, called by a AI Agent, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, AI Agent or YouTube will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find AI Agent or YouTube, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring AI Agent, YouTube, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the AI Agent and YouTube integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between AI Agent and YouTube (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect AI Agent and YouTube
YouTube + AI Agent + Google Docs: When a new video is uploaded to a specified YouTube channel, the video's subtitles are extracted. An AI Agent then summarizes the subtitles, and the summary is used to create a new Google Docs document.
YouTube + AI Agent + X (Twitter): When a new comment is posted on a YouTube video, the AI Agent analyzes the comment for sentiment. If the sentiment is determined to be trending or significant, a post is created on X (Twitter) to share the feedback.
