Seeking Ideas for Podcast Episode Customization and Insights Extraction

Hi everyone 🚀 I am trying to set up the following customization: refer to the latest topic of a podcast and some insights from the episode description. Any ideas on how to take that information from youtube and/or from podcast platforms like transistor? Thanks 🙏

Hi Stilyana, thanks for reaching out. Hey there, thanks for reaching out. You cannot set this up directly in clay at the moment. However tools like Phantombuster & Apify.com have scrapers that can pull description and video data from YouTube and the results can be imported through the integration we have with them. I found this actor , for example, which should get the job done for your specific use case. Apify integrates with Clay, so you'll be able to build tables based on Apify actor runs, or trigger actor runs at strategic points in your workflow. Here's how you can set up a Clay table from an Apify actor run: https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/1136960340/97e4e0aa1500879dbbe57ea0/CleanShot+2024-08-06+at+15_48_57.gif?expires=1726244100&signature=f8801b06165c274a32da12116b77fa8c80007c5d0523c01301f47fe3546ee362&req=dSEkEMB4nYJbWfMW1HO4zejWag7f7nMGAut9xPamiwDULA%3D%3D%0A And here's how you can trigger an Apify actor in an active workflow: https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/1137852576/18ba4740bed56137b073908c/CleanShot+2024-08-07+at+11_15_01.gif?expires=1726244100&signature=d018d9c91068fd076192227bc8f1a1eb50cdaedd28f58a3f62b5933203dc6111&req=dSEkEcF7n4RYX%2FMW1HO4ze%2BfSm%2BpS%2FOX98ZbnAjuOC9sNw%3D%3D%0A For the trigger-based approach you'll likely have to study the documentation of the specific actor, to see what JSON payload it expects to trigger the run. I hope this was helpful. If there's anything else I can assist you with, please let me know!

Hey Bruno R., thank you for your help, and sorry for the spam - yesterday I reopened the wrong thread. What I actually need is pretty simple, and I believe it shouldn't be hard to set it up in Clay:
visit a specific youtube channel, find the latest episode and take its title + description
Any ideas on how to do it? Thanks!

Hi Stilyana, thanks for reaching out! We currently don't have an enrichment that automatically pulls this information for you. To do this in Clay, you can either use the Youtube Scraper/Apify enrichments that Bruno suggested or create a custom Claygent enrichment to find this information. Here's an example tutorial of custom Claygent prompt I set up to pull the Full Name and Biography from a Youtube page. You can tweak this style of Claygent prompting to pull the Title + Description from the latest episode: https://www.loom.com/share/f5550e8ea3b74a59bb639606dfc111e1?sid=e522b0c6-b4ef-412f-beda-9a4e6be51f9b Let me know if you have any other questions! 😊
