Hi team,
I am attempting to create an automation that transcribes all videos on a YouTube channel into a Google Doc.
Not having much luck - any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks 
Hi Patrick! Great question! Here is a link to a previous post where we discuss how to accomplish this https://community.bardeen.ai/t/youtube-transcript/256?u=lucy_bardeen

Hi Lucy,
I actually found this page and tried the first two books yesterday but couldnāt get either of them to work for me.
Your last command returned no results
I tried them again just now and got the same response.
I did manage to get a response with this promptā¦
Transcribe all videos on https://www.youtube.com/@PatrickWoodcraftOFFICIAL/videos into a Google Doc. Create new Google Doc with name ai youtube 4.
But it was not a transcription. When I read the Google Doc it was just a weird summary of a handful of videos. Definitely not transcriptions and nowhere near all the videos.
Not sure whatās up.
The channel I want transcriptions from isā¦
Iām happy for all transcription to go into one Google doc.
Hope we can get this working and really appreciate your support!
Hi @Bardeeni, any update on this one? I still canāt get it working and canāt figure out what Iām doing wrong. Thanks.
Hi Patrick,
Thanks for following up! After closer inspection, it seems that the reason our YouTube transcript scraper doesnāt work is because the button to access transcripts has changed locations on the platforms. This makes far harder for Bardeen to consistently return the results you require. Iāve escalated this issue to our engineering team and we will take a closer look at how we can get the information you require from YouTube. Thank you for your patience!

Oh ok, thanks Omansh,
Yes, please do keep me in the loop on this.
Hi Omansh,
Any update on this oneā¦?
Thanks

Understand Omansh,
Thanks for the update.
Yes, please keep me in the loop with any progress.
Hi Patrick,
Thank you so much for your patience. Our engineering team has taken a closer look at this issue and Iāve fixed the following playbook so that it scrapes the YouTube transcript from all of the videos on a channel. As of right now, itās configured so that it only gets the first 10 videos on a specific channel but you can change this in the playbook by just leaving that parameter empty. Iāve attached the playbook below for you to test on your end. Please let me know if you require any further assistance. Hope this helps!
