How to run the playbook
Excited to streamline your video content management? Our playbook is the perfect solution. It efficiently retrieves the transcript for the current YouTube video and organizes it in Microsoft Excel.
Transcribing video content manually can be time-consuming and prone to errors. With our playbook, you can automate this process, ensuring accurate transcription of the video's dialogue.
Imagine having the entire transcript of your YouTube video neatly organized in an Excel spreadsheet, ready for analysis or repurposing. Whether you're creating subtitles for your video, conducting keyword research for SEO optimization, or analyzing the content for insights, this automation simplifies the process, allowing you to focus on leveraging your video content effectively.
Let’s set it up!
Step 1: Create a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet
The first step is to create a Microsoft Excel Workbook for the transcript to be saved into.
Step 2: Pin the playbook and integrate Microsoft Excel
First, click the “Pin it” button at the top of this page to save this automation. You will be redirected to install the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Microsoft Excel.
Activate Bardeen (or hit Option + B on Mac or ALT + B on a Windows machine on your keyboard) and click on the playbook card. The setup flow will start. Bardeen will ask you to specify the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to save all the information.
Click on “Save Input” and checkmark Microsoft Excel. You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook.
Step 3: Run the automation to get a YouTube transcript for the current video in Microsoft Excel
Go to a YouTube video, open Bardeen, and click on the Playbook card.
Bardeen will ask for the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to save the information to. Then the playbook will get the transcript for the currently opened YouTube video in your Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. It will also give you the timestamps.

FAQs
Scraper: How can I get data from multiple sections of a profile (Eg: getting the experience section on a linkedin profile)?
Cases like this require you to scrape the links to the sections and use the background scraper to get details from every section.
Meetings: Is there a playbook to record and summarize meetings?
There isn't a specific AI use case available for automatically recording and summarizing meetings at the moment
Scraper: If I scrape LinkedIn profiles, will they see me checking their profile?
Yes. Since Bardeen lives on your browser, Playbooks like "Enrich Linkedin links from a Google Sheet" open the Linkedin profiles in the background and scrape their information. This happens from your currently opened Linkedin account, so people can see you've visited their profile.
Google Sheets: What is the best way to export data to Google Sheets?
Exporting data (ex: scraped data or app data) from Bardeen to Google Sheets is possible with our action to “Add Rows to Google Sheets”.
Tables: Is it possible to save data from a Table to a CSV file?
This is possible! Edit your automation and add the "Convert table to CSV" action on the end. You should get the CSV once you run the playbook.
Playbooks: My shared playbook is not updating, how can I share an updated version?
For your shared playbook to be updated, you need to unshare your playbook and share it again. This will generate a new link. To do this: 1) Edit the playbook. 2) Unshare it (click on share, then the “unshare” button) 3) Share it again
