Monitor YouTube Channels and Send Daily Updates to Discord via RSS (No API Key)

Automatically track your favorite YouTube creators and get a daily summary of new videos delivered to Discord.

Unlike complex YouTube API integrations, this workflow uses efficient RSS feeds, meaning you don't need a Google Cloud API Key or worry about quota limits.

How it works

The workflow is scheduled to run daily (default 8:30 AM) to:

1. Define Channels: It takes a list of "Channel IDs" you want to monitor.
2. Fetch RSS: It retrieves the latest video feed for each channel.
3. Filter: It applies a strict date filter to pass only videos published in the last 24 hours.
4. Notify: Sends a notification to your Discord server with the Video Title, Date, and Link.

Setup steps

1. Add your Channels

1. Open the node named "Define Channel IDs".
2. Replace the example IDs with the Channel IDs you want to track.
   • Note: The template comes pre-loaded with some Spanish AI channels as a demo. Feel free to remove them!
   • Tip: If you don't know a Creator's Channel ID (e.g. UC...), use a free online "YouTube Channel ID Finder".

2. Connect Discord

1. Create a Webhook in your Discord Server (Server Settings > Integrations > Webhooks).
2. Open the "Discord Notification" node.
3. Create a new credential and paste your Webhook URL.

Note: This template is a lightweight alternative to database-backed trackers. It relies on the daily trigger frequency to avoid duplicates.
