I'm trying to get Zapier to upload a finished meeting recording from Zoom to YouTube. My connected accounts are working fine. So, things currently look like this in my draft Zap:When 1. New Recording in Zoom Trigger Event = New RecordingMeeting Type = MeetingFind Data = Successfully pulls in my only current Zoom meeting recordingDo This 2. Upload Video in YouTubeTitle = Topic: Pulls in name of my calendar event (which is the name of my meeting, which is perfect)Description = I can type in something here as a standard description, so that's great.Then (and I think this is when it breaks down) Video = It doesn't give me a video FILE; it only gives me an option for the Video share URL. I was wondering if the fix could be to add in a middle step between the two that would fix it. Something like:New meeting recording in ZoomDownload meeting recording (to somewhere) from Zoom share URL (I think?)Then, upload that file to YouTube. But, I'm not seeing a way to do that. Anyone know how to make this work? Am I on the right track?

UPDATE!As you can read in this article,Zoom’s New Recording trigger now downloads files!!There are some caveats, so be sure to have a look at that link above. But, hopefully, this helps a lot of y’all out :)

I'm trying to get Zapier to upload a finished meeting recording from Zoom to YouTube. My connected accounts are working fine. So, things currently look like this in my draft Zap:

When 1. New Recording in Zoom

Trigger Event = New Recording
Meeting Type = Meeting
Find Data = Successfully pulls in my only current Zoom meeting recording

Do This 2. Upload Video in YouTube

Title = Topic: Pulls in name of my calendar event (which is the name of my meeting, which is perfect)
Description = I can type in something here as a standard description, so that's great.
Then (and I think this is when it breaks down) Video = It doesn't give me a video FILE; it only gives me an option for the Video share URL.

I was wondering if the fix could be to add in a middle step between the two that would fix it. Something like:

New meeting recording in Zoom
Download meeting recording (to somewhere) from Zoom share URL (I think?)
Then, upload that file to YouTube.

But, I'm not seeing a way to do that. Anyone know how to make this work? Am I on the right track?

I’ve tried and tried to get zapier to take a new zoom video and send it to my youtube account. No matter what I try, it never works. I followed the instructions Brandi posted to the letter, and it still does not work.

Heads up that I did find this third-party app that you can install via Zoom but it's an additional $4.99 a month. I've sent open tickets to both the Zapier and Zoom support teams, requesting this be made a regular feature, though.

Thank you for doing that. Is there a way we can vote for those tickets so that they see there’s an interest in that feature?

I would love to follow this topic! Adding URL is really what I need. By the way, I would like to recommend a third-party screen recorder Windows here. Sometimes I use it to record live chat like group discussions.
