Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Podio, 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 Podio and YouTube integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Podio 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 Podio and YouTube
Podio + YouTube + Slack: When a new item is created in Podio, the automation searches YouTube for a relevant video. If found, it sends a message to a Slack channel including a link to the Podio item and the YouTube video.
YouTube + Google Sheets + Podio: When a new video is uploaded to YouTube, its details are added to a Google Sheet. A new item is then created in Podio for marketing review, containing the video information from the Google Sheet.
