Frequently Asked Questions about Google Drive + YouTube integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google Drive and YouTube
How can I automatically upload YouTube videos to Google Drive?
You can set up a trigger for when a new video is uploaded to your YouTube channel, and an action that uploads the video file to a specified folder in your Google Drive.
Is it possible to save YouTube comments to Google Drive?
Yes, you can create a workflow where a trigger picks up new comments on your videos and stores them in a document or spreadsheet in your Google Drive.
Can I get notifications in Google Drive for new subscribers on my YouTube channel?
While we don't directly support sending notifications to Google Drive, you can create a document that logs each new subscriber event through automated triggers.
What happens if there's no space left in my Google Drive during an upload from YouTube?
If your Google Drive is out of storage space, the upload action will fail after the corresponding trigger from YouTube tries to start the process. Ensure there's sufficient space available.
Is it possible to convert YouTube videos before saving them to Google Drive?
Currently, our integrations do not support conversion of video formats directly. However, you can download and convert the video manually before saving it.
Can I automate sharing of uploaded videos from my YouTube channel via Google Drive links?
Yes, once we upload the video file onto your Google Drive, you can automate creating shareable links which can be sent via email or other communication tools.
How do we ensure that multiple videos are organized properly when moved from YouTube to Google Drive?
You can define rules within the automation process to specify folders based on video titles or categories as metadata triggers organizational actions during transfer.
