Create email alert on new video in YT Sub list


Hi, 

Is there any way to be able to create an email alert based off any updates to channels I’m sub’d to on YouTube? I have a Zap that will email if a single channel updates, which is working, but based on that I would need to create over 200 separate alerts where realistically I only need one to just watch the sub list.

 

Thanks

Wayne.

I think you could probably do this using a search query (but haven’t tested to confirm)

Cool, I’ll have a dig about… real pain since YT removed email notifications, must be really slowing their systems down I guess :) I suppose its moved the load on to the API systems as everyone looks for an alternative :)
