Automate YouTube Video Metadata & Upload from Google Drive
This n8n workflow automates the initial steps of publishing new videos to YouTube. It is triggered whenever a new video file is uploaded to a designated folder within Google Drive. Upon detecting a new upload, the workflow automatically downloads the video file for further processing. Subsequently, it utilizes OpenAI, integrated through LangChain, to analyze the video's content. This analysis can involve transcribing the audio, summarizing the video's core topics, and generating optimized metadata, including compelling titles, detailed descriptions, and relevant tags, all tailored for YouTube. The workflow significantly streamlines the content creation pipeline for YouTubers, reducing manual effort and ensuring that videos are well-prepared for publishing. By automating content generation and metadata creation, it helps improve video SEO and audience engagement, potentially leading to an automated upload to the YouTube platform based on the processed information.
Automate YouTube video metadata and uploads from Google Drive using n8n, boosting SEO and saving hours of manual work.
