Template description

A simple node to send new YouTube videos from a channel to a Telegram chat (private, group or channel).
CheckTime: set how often videos should be fetched from YouTube. Default is 30 minutes.
GetVideosYT: this node will fetch the list of videos from a given channel. Here you need to specify on "Limit" the number of videos to fetch, and on "Channel ID" the ID of the desired channel (it should be the ending part of the URL). You need Google OAuth2 credentials to make it work. A guide is available here. (If you use n8n's tunneling, you may need to adjust the OAuth callback URL on Google Cloud Platform)
Set: this node will set some variables to work easily with the next nodes. You shouldn't edit this.
Function: this node checks if the video was seen previously by the workflow, so that it won't be published a second time on Telegram. You shouldn't edit this.
SendVideo: this node sends the message to Telegram. You need to set your bot's credentials (guide here), specify the Chat ID to send the message (how to get) and personalize the Text of your message.

This workflow works correctly only when it's activated. If you manually execute the workflow, it will send every time the latest videos.

Pulling data from services that n8n doesn’t have a pre-built integration for

You still can use the app in a workflow even if we don’t have a node for that or the existing operation for that. With the HTTP Request node, it is possible to call any API point and use the incoming data in your workflow Main use cases: Connect with apps and services that n8n doesn’t have integration with Web scraping How it works This workflow can be divided into three branches, each serving a distinct purpose: 1.Splitting into Items (HTTP Request - Get Mock Albums): The workflow initiates with a manual trigger (On clicking 'execute'). It performs an HTTP request to retrieve mock albums data from "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/albums." The obtained data is split into items using the Item Lists node, facilitating easier management. 2.Data Scraping (HTTP Request - Get Wikipedia Page and HTML Extract): Another branch of the workflow involves fetching a random Wikipedia page using an HTTP request to "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random." The HTML Extract node extracts the article title from the fetched Wikipedia page. 3.Handling Pagination (The final branch deals with handling pagination for a GitHub API request): It sends an HTTP request to "https://api.github.com/users/that-one-tom/starred," with parameters like the page number and items per page dynamically set by the Set node. The workflow uses conditions (If - Are we finished?) to check if there are more pages to retrieve and increments the page number accordingly (Set - Increment Page). This process repeats until all pages are fetched, allowing for comprehensive data retrieval.
