This template starts when a new file appears in a Dropbox folder, skips non-video names in JavaScript, downloads the existing file, and uploads it to YouTube.
Title comes from the filename. Connect Dropbox and YouTube, then point the trigger at the folder you drop videos into. Put a Dropbox token on the HTTP request so Dropbox allows the download.
Latenode bills workflow runtime in CPU seconds. The first 10,000 CPU seconds are free each month, then usage follows pay-as-you-go CPU-second pricing. Plug-and-Play (PnP) AI nodes are billed separately—each PnP token is $1 USD, charged pay-as-you-go at vendor cost plus a small processing fee, with no API keys required.

This template watches a Google Drive folder for new video files, downloads each file, transcribes the soundtrack with Latenode speech-to-text, and asks ChatGPT for a title, description, and tags. It then uploads the video to YouTube and applies that metadata. Connect Google Drive and YouTube, then point the trigger at the folder you drop videos into.
This template publishes new video files from Google Drive to your YouTube channel. It watches the folder you choose, downloads each file, and uploads it to the connected channel. If the folder also holds other files, keep only video types. Set the title from the filename and a privacy status after upload. Connect Google Drive and YouTube, then point the trigger at the upload folder.
This template starts when YouTube publishes a new video in the channel you watch. It loads title, description, and tags, fetches the caption track, and JavaScript strips timestamps into a readable transcript. The transcript is saved as a Google Drive text file, and a Google Sheets row stores title, URL, and an excerpt. Connect YouTube, Google Drive, and Google Sheets. When captions are missing, transcribe the soundtrack with Latenode speech-to-text.
