Reply on any new comment on youtube

Is there a method to reply any new comment in any video in my youtube channel ? the videos tutorial I think show only reply on a specific videos or specific users comments. I need to know this before purchase a plan.

Hi @romanos8,

Currently, you can only reply to comments on a specific video of your channel in a single workflow. For each new video, you will need to create a different workflow to automatically reply to comments on that video.

i commented on my channel (from another channel), and an hour has past since then, while the trigger says it runs once in 10 minutes, but in the workflow history doesnt look like the trigger was executed.

Help please :)

@romanos8, @Avinash1007, You can use 'YouTube: New Comment on a Channel' trigger event and to capture any new comment made on any video posted on your YouTube channel.

i dont think its true, unless i dont understand something
I built a workflow with a trigger of when a youtube comment is posted on any video on the channel..
and when im running it by hand (sending test requests), it works.. and thats why im here - now that i have deployed it, it doesnt work.

Please record a short screen recording making a comment on any video of your YouTube channel and see if that triggers this workflow.

How? the trigger there is set to "check for new data" only once each 8 hours!

Please allow us some time, we are currently looking into it.

In your original workflow (the one in which the trigger interval time is set to 10 minutes), I suggest you try to establish a new connection with your YouTube account and see if this workflow is being triggered or not.

Based on the Task History of the workflow I created for testing, your workflow does appear to get triggered by a comment made on a video on your YouTube channel.

1) I tried establishing a new connection, it didnt help..

2) how have you checked with the test workflow? have you left a comment on my channel?

3) you havent responded to what i said about changing the triggering interval for existing users.
Especially that now when i checked MY workflow its now 8 hours and not 10 minutes as it was before!!!

You didn't select the newly established connection; I did that on your behalf, and your workflow should trigger now.

No, I didn't leave a comment on your channel. I was referring to the comment that was captured in your Task History.

The trigger interval time can be reduced to 10 minutes for paid users. For the free plan, the trigger interval time will be 8 hours. You can purchase any of our paid plans and I will reduce the trigger interval time on your behalf.

Then it now really takes back from my trust of the platform -
1st) its not good practice and user experience to just downgrade the features you already made available to the free tier,
2nd) not only that, but to users that already built workflows around those features - banking on the way they are working.
3rd) You didnt even update the users through some place so that they can adjust their workflows (and also, at least know that you are downgrading their experience!) (Though again, just to make it clear, it shouldnt even be the case that you do downgrade!)
4th) And not only that! but to downgrade it behind my back, without even telling me anything about it and letting me discover it by myself!
5th) Making me feel sorry i ever posted here, and think twice if i can count on not suddenly having my workflow changed by someone else to downgraded version!!

I'm VERY disappointed, I myself maybe dont require enough automations for paying for it for now, since im just dabbling in it and not using it full time, but i was always recommending to use this platform to everyone who were talking to me about automation, instead of Zapier or Make...

Again - its the same as if you would suddenly changed to all current free users, who already signed up, the quota of allotted tasks from 100 to some lesser amount OR suddenly made the free tasks (like Email Parser) unfree and counted towards the allotted tasks!

I am afraid I won't be able to reduce the trigger interval time for your workflow.

8 hours is the default trigger interval time for YouTube. As mentioned previously, the trigger interval time can only be reduced for paid plans. Unfortunately, I won't be able to reduce the trigger interval time for your workflow.

I have forwarded your concern to our manager. They will get back to you shortly.

We understand the importance of having the workflow triggered at your preferred interval. Upon reviewing your case, the trigger interval time reverted to 8 hours inadvertently when establishing a new connection with your YouTube account. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Please note that while our free plan provides an opportunity to explore Pabbly Connect's functionalities, the ability to adjust trigger interval times is a feature exclusive to our paid plans. We have designed our subscription options to cater to specific user needs, and certain capabilities, including shorter trigger intervals, are part of the paid plans.

We strive to maintain fairness and consistency across all our users, including those on paid subscriptions. Hence, changing the trigger interval time for users on the free plan might create disparity among our user base.

We highly appreciate your support and understanding. If you have any additional questions or need further assistance regarding other aspects of your workflow do let us know.

It always amazes me at the entitled audacity of some people. They give you nothing, yet demand that they be given special treatment.

Anyone who builds the "free" offerings of a company into their business model is naive and inexperienced.

Your parents should have taught you that "you get what you pay for". Which means if you pay nothing; you are entitled to nothing.

Become a paying subscriber and contribute to society.

1. I dont remember belittling you sir. I would expect the same.
2. I dont think that what i described is a special treatment.

I havent. As i said - im checking platforms out extensively beforehand, exactly to see what is the attitude of the company in different situations.

Again with the condescending articulation and attitude.
My parents taught me to under-promise and over-deliver.
And so when i give some expectation to someone, i dont roll back afterwards on that set standard, even in an unpaid interaction (while here now the interval changed again from 8hr to 24hr! it should only be changed for users who sign up after the decision is made to change an interval, or anything else, NOT for users who signed up on the previous conditions of 10 min or 8 hr, should be obvious). @Supreme - Do you understand?

I am paying when i see that its a platform i can trust to be fair and focused on the users and not only the profit (or when i desperately need it of course, luckily here its not the case).
Also - nice that you are measuring my contribution to society, without knowing anything about me, by me being a paying member to this platform.. very classy.

However, the facts stand as they are - in any business, customers who consume but do not contribute any revenue are not customers. They are liabilities. I shouldn't have to explain that biz 101 foundational principle to you.

Do you understand the concept of "consideration"? In legal terms, "consideration" refers to something of value that is exchanged between parties to a contract. It is a fundamental concept in contract law and is necessary for a contract to be enforceable. Consideration can take various forms, including money, goods, services, promises to act or refrain from acting, or anything else that has value in the eyes of the law.

The concept of consideration ensures that each party to a contract is giving something up or sacrificing something in exchange for what they are receiving. This exchange of value helps to distinguish contracts from gifts or unilateral promises.

When you sign up for something that is free, you are participating in a unilateral promise. There is no actual agreement in place that defines what you may or may not give. Because you legally "don't exist" in that relationship.

And it is people today in our society that run around demanding things or criticizing things without actually being "considerate" in these business relationships. This literally means they legally "provide no contributions".

Hence, they do not contribute to that society. They bring no value. Only liability.

However, the facts stand as they are - in any business, customers who consume but do not contribute any revenue are not customers. They are liabilities. I shouldn't have to explain that biz 101 foundational principle to you.

And here i thought they are called "users"..

Which every platform today knows it has to respect and gain.
Or do you think its by mistake that the vast majority of the known platforms today are freemium based?
Its because they (the companies) know that most people arent prepared to start paying for a black box and promises anymore, and expect to extensively try out the product and the service of that product before buying and subscribing to the trillion services out there.

Based on this logic - Facebook wouldnt stand trial some years ago; because all of their *users* (and also in my previous comment i said "user", not customer) are just non existent, non-contributing pieces of liabilities.
Your view of this field is distorted a bit imo..
