Route new YouTube videos to a designated webhook

This automation allows users to automatically detect new video uploads on a specific YouTube channel and send the video details to a designated webhook URL.

The integration monitors the YouTube channel for new content, and when a new video is detected, it fires off a single POST request containing the video metadata to a specified webhook endpoint. This enables users to trigger downstream workflows and integrate the new video data with other systems without having to manually monitor the YouTube channel.

How Latenode estimates time and cost

Latenode bills workflow runs in credits: 1 credit = 30 seconds of processing. Minimum charge per run depends on your plan. 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.
