Hi @Grijper,

 

Welcome to the community. 
 
Zapier is a powerful automation tool, but it currently can’t automate applying recommended long videos on YouTube due to limitations in YouTube’s API. However, you can create a workaround by listing video URLs in a Google Sheets document and setting up a Zapier automation to post these videos to your YouTube channel at scheduled intervals. Always ensure compliance with YouTube’s and other platforms’ terms of service when automating tasks.

Hi @Grijper,

 

I apologize, but right now, there is no alternative method for recommending long videos from YouTube. The only method that I am aware of is the recommendation that I presented above.
