Expanded YouTube piece Triggers & Actions

Summary: The current YouTube integration in Activepieces is too limited to cover practical and scalable automation use cases. Competitor tools like Make offer 14+ modules including advanced actions like uploading videos, managing playlists, replying to comments, updating metadata, and watching new interactions.

Current Limitation in Activepieces:

• Only one basic trigger: "New Video in Channel"

• Only one action: "Custom API Call"

What’s Missing: Here’s what other tools (like Make) already provide:

Triggers:

• Watch New Comments

• Watch Videos by Search

• Watch Videos in a Channel

• Watch Videos in a Playlist

Actions:

• Upload a Video

• Set a Video Thumbnail

• Add a Video to Playlist

• Create/Update/Delete Playlist

• Reply to a Comment

• Update Channel Details

• Update Channel Banner

• Update Video Metadata

Why It Matters: To build meaningful automations, especially for marketers, content creators, and agencies, we need:

• Full control over content publishing (e.g., auto-upload from Drive or Dropbox)

• Engagement automation (replying to comments, liking videos, adding to playlists)

• Branding workflows (updating thumbnails, banners, metadata)

Impact:

• Unlocks advanced YouTube automation use cases

• Saves time managing YouTube channels

• Makes Activepieces competitive with Make, Zapier, and Pabbly

Thank you for considering an upgrade to the YouTube integration!
