1 workflow is sole-blocked by YouTube (#81). The other 3 also need Telegram or X.
Why YouTube matters
Common workflow patterns:
- Video content planning (trend research → script generation → metadata)
- Video summarization (fetch video metadata/transcripts → AI summary)
- Channel analytics (track performance, compare competitors)
- Content publishing (upload videos, manage playlists)
Technical scope
YouTube Data API v3:
videos.list — get video metadata, statistics
search.list — search videos by keyword
channels.list — channel info and stats
captions.list / captions.download — subtitle/transcript access
videos.insert — upload videos
OAuth 2.0 authentication via Google.
Documentation: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3
Impact
Lower individual impact than Telegram or WhatsApp, but YouTube is a natural complement to the Google ecosystem already connected (Gmail, Drive, Sheets, Docs, Calendar, Ads). Adding it fills a gap in Google integration coverage.
