Automate AI video creation, Google Drive storage, and YouTube publishing

This automation solution allows users to generate high-quality AI-powered videos using the Google Veo3 service, store the video files in Google Drive, and then automatically publish them to a connected YouTube channel.

The workflow is triggered from a Google Sheet, where users can input video prompts and other metadata. The generated videos are then downloaded, uploaded to Google Drive, and published to YouTube with optimized titles and descriptions using GPT-4o. This end-to-end solution streamlines the video creation and distribution process, enabling users to efficiently create and share engaging video content across multiple platforms.
