Look things up. Nothing changes.
Get channel statistics
Reads the signed-in person's own YouTube channel: its title, handle and description, and its statistics.
List the channel's uploaded videos
Lists the videos in the channel's uploads playlist, the playlist YouTube keeps of everything the channel uploaded, with each video's title, description, thumbnails and contentDetails.videoPublishedAt.
Get a video
Reads one or more videos by ID (up to 50, separated by commas): title, description, tags, publish time, duration, privacy status, and statistics (views, likes, comments).
Comments on a video
Lists the top-level comment threads on a video, by time (the default) or by relevance, as plain text, with each comment's author, text, like count, publish time and reply count.
Write 0
Create, change or send.
This tool only reads, so nothing in it changes.
Read only
Every action here only reads, so an agent can look things up in YouTube but cannot change anything there.
Connection
How it connects
Connect it once in the console, then give it to the agents and workflows that need it.
Sign in with Google and approve access (OAuth).
Kept safe
- Credentials are stored encrypted with your organization's own keys.
- They are opened only by the process that makes the call, at the moment it runs, and never go into a prompt or the browser.
- Calls go only to the tool's own servers.
Ideas
Ideas to start with
Starting points made only from the actions above. Mix them with any other tool your agents can use.
- 01
Ask about your YouTube data
Ask a question in plain words. The agent can get channel statistics, list the channel's uploaded videos or get a video in YouTube, then answers with what it found.
- 02
Share what it finds in Slack
Give one agent YouTube and Slack: it can get channel statistics in YouTube and post a summary to a Slack channel in the same run.
- 03
Run it as a workflow step
Add "Get channel statistics" to a workflow, and it runs in YouTube the same way every time, with or without an agent.
