:pushpin: How the Flow Works:

:one: New Video Detection:

  • The flow monitors the specified YouTube channel for new uploads.
  • Once a new video is detected, it extracts key details such as the title, description, and video ID.

:two: Content Processing & Transcription:

  • The video’s title and description are retrieved.
  • If the video contains subtitles, they are extracted and processed for better content generation.
  • A structured WordPress article is automatically generated.

:three: Category & Tags Assignment:

  • Categories and tags are determined dynamically based on the content of the video.
  • If a relevant category does not exist in WordPress, it is automatically created.
  • Tags are assigned following these rules:
    • For a brand/device: The tag includes both the brand and model (as separate tags).
    • For a consumable: The tag includes the type of consumable and the associated brand (matching the category).

:four: Thumbnail Upload:

  • The video’s thumbnail is fetched and uploaded to the WordPress media library.
  • It is then set as the featured image for the article.

:five: Automatic Publishing to WordPress:

  • The article is formatted with a clean structure and proper metadata.
  • The generated content, thumbnail, category, and tags are attached.
  • The post is published automatically or saved as a draft (depending on settings).

:six: Notifications & Logs:

  • A confirmation is logged once the post is successfully published.
  • If any error occurs (e.g., missing credentials, API failure), logs help debug the issue.
