Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Mailhook, 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 Mailhook and YouTube integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Mailhook 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 Mailhook and YouTube
Mailhook + YouTube + Discord bot: When a new email arrives at the Mailhook, it searches for specific keywords. If those keywords are found, the flow searches for new videos on YouTube based on those keywords. Finally, the Discord bot sends a message to a specified channel with the link to the newly uploaded YouTube video.
YouTube + Mailhook + Twitter: When a new video is uploaded to a specific YouTube channel, the flow retrieves video information (title, description). This information is then sent to a specified email address via Mailhook, and a shortened summary of the video is posted as a tweet on Twitter.
