Description

Our YouTube notification module is designed to allow your community to automatically follow new videos from their favorite creators directly on Discord!
Additionally, it automatically updates the name of a voice channel to display the real-time subscriber count of the YouTube channel 📊.

🔄 How the system works

1. Monitoring YouTube channels

The module regularly checks configured YouTube channels to detect any new videos published. You can configure multiple channels to monitor simultaneously 📺.

2. Automatic notification

As soon as a new video is detected, the module automatically creates a notification in the configured Discord channel with the link, which includes:

• 🔗 Direct link to the video
• 🎥 Video title
• 📝 Creator
• 🖼️ Video thumbnail

3. Notification customization

You will be able to configure:

• 📢 The role to mention when a new video is posted
• 🎯 The destination channel for notifications
• ⏱️ The frequency of checking for new videos

✨ System benefits

• 🎯 Never miss a video from your favorite creators
• 🤖 Full automation of the notification process
• 📊 Simple and centralized management of channels to monitor
• 🔔 Customizable and informative notifications

❗ Important

• The module will not work by just downloading the files; it must be integrated into an already functioning Discord bot
