How to connect Microsoft SQL Server and YouTube
Create a New Scenario to Connect Microsoft SQL Server and YouTube
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Microsoft SQL Server, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Microsoft SQL Server or YouTube will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Microsoft SQL Server or YouTube, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Microsoft SQL Server Node
Select the Microsoft SQL Server node from the app selection panel on the right.

Set Up the Microsoft SQL Server and YouTube Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Microsoft SQL Server, 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 Microsoft SQL Server and YouTube integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Microsoft SQL Server 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 Microsoft SQL Server and YouTube
Microsoft SQL Server + YouTube + Slack: When a new or updated row is added to a Microsoft SQL Server database based on a custom query, it triggers a search for new YouTube videos. If a video matches the criteria, a message is sent to a Slack channel.
YouTube + Microsoft SQL Server + Google Sheets: When a new video is uploaded to YouTube, its details (title, views, likes, etc.) are added to a Microsoft SQL Server database and then updated in a Google Sheets spreadsheet for reporting and tracking purposes.
