YouTube Video Description Automation

This workflow is ideal for:

• Content Creators: Individuals who regularly upload videos on YouTube and want to streamline their video description updates.
• Social Media Managers: Professionals managing multiple YouTube channels who need to ensure consistency in video descriptions.
• Digital Marketers: Marketers looking to optimize their video content for better engagement and SEO.
• Automation Enthusiasts: Users interested in automating repetitive tasks to save time and increase productivity.

This workflow addresses the challenge of manually updating video descriptions on YouTube. It:

• Automates the process of checking if a video description has changed, ensuring that only necessary updates are made.
• Saves time by allowing users to batch update descriptions across multiple videos instead of updating each one individually.
• Enhances the quality of video descriptions by allowing users to define a standard format and content to be appended.

1. Trigger Workflow: The workflow begins with a manual trigger, allowing users to start the process whenever they choose.
2. Config Node: Users set up a configuration node to define a delimiter (e.g., '--- n8ninja ---') and a standard description to be added to all videos.
3. List All Videos: The workflow retrieves all videos from the user's YouTube channel.
4. Generate Description: For each video, it generates a new description by combining the existing description with the standard description defined in the config node.
5. Check if Has Changed: The workflow checks if the newly generated description differs from the current description of each video.
6. Update Description: If a change is detected, the workflow updates the video description on YouTube to the newly generated one.
7. Sticky Notes: Throughout the workflow, sticky notes provide guidance and instructions for users to follow.
