        "content": "# YouTube Transcript Extractor\n\nThis n8n template demonstrates how to extract transcripts from YouTube videos using two different approaches: automated Google Sheets monitoring and direct webhook API calls.\n\n**Use cases:** Content creation, research, accessibility, meeting notes, content repurposing, SEO analysis, or building transcript databases for analysis.\n\n## How it works\n- **Google Sheets Integration:** Monitor a sheet for new YouTube URLs and automatically extract transcripts\n- **Direct API Access:** Send YouTube URLs via webhook and get instant transcript responses\n- **Smart Parsing:** Extracts video ID from various YouTube URL formats (youtube.com, youtu.be, embed)\n- **Rich Metadata:** Returns video title, channel, publish date, duration, and category alongside transcript\n- **Fallback Handling:** Gracefully handles videos without available transcripts\n\n## Two Workflow Paths\n1. **Automated Sheet Processing:** Add URLs to Google Sheet → Auto-extract → Save results to sheet\n2. **Webhook API:** Send POST request with video URL → Get instant transcript response\n\n## How to set up\n1. Replace \"Dummy YouTube Transcript API\" credentials with your YouTube Transcript API key\n2. Create your own Google Sheet with columns: \"url\" (input sheet) and \"video title\", \"transcript\" (results sheet)\n3. Update Google Sheets credentials to connect your sheets\n4. Test each workflow path separately\n5. Customize the webhook path and authentication as needed\n\n## Requirements\n- YouTube Transcript API access (youtube-transcript.io or similar)\n- Google Sheets API credentials (for automated workflow)\n- n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted)\n- YouTube videos with available transcripts\n\n## How to customize\n- Modify transcript processing in the Code nodes\n- Add additional metadata extraction\n- Connect to other storage solutions (databases, CMS)\n- Add text analysis or summarization steps\n- Set up notifications for new transcripts"
