Steps:

For professionals seeking to enhance their data sourcing and personal productivity, Bardeen offers an innovative solution to extract summaries from YouTube videos automatically. With this playbook, you can capture the essence of any video content, enrich it with OpenAI's advanced summarization, and organize it effortlessly in Airtable. This seamless integration between content consumption and data management empowers you to gather insights without disrupting your workflow.

Here's how this workflow operates:

  • Step 1: Get current YouTube URL - The workflow starts by capturing the URL of the YouTube video you have open in your browser.
  • Step 2: Extract video ID - It then employs a regular expression to find and extract the unique video ID from the URL.
  • Step 3: Merge text for scraping - This step concatenates the video ID to create a string that will be used to scrape the video transcript.
  • Step 4: Find all links in text - The workflow looks for all the links within the scraped text for subsequent data extraction.
  • Step 5: Scrape YouTube transcript - Using Bardeen's scraper, the workflow scrapes the video's transcript in the background, using a custom template designed to interact with YouTube.
  • Step 6: Summarize transcript with OpenAI - The transcript text is then summarized using OpenAI to provide a concise version of the video's content.
  • Step 7: Get current page URL again - The workflow retrieves the URL of the YouTube video again, possibly for reference or to include with the summary data.
  • Step 8: Save summary to Airtable - Finally, the summarized data is added to an Airtable base, creating a structured and accessible record of the video's content.
