YouTube Upload Notification to Discord or Slack
Each run returns only videos it has not seen before, so an Apify integration can push them into a Discord or Slack channel as they land.
What this run is set to
The settings saved on this example. Every one of them is editable once you open it on Apify — these are a starting point, not a limit.

Max recent videos per channel | 3 | How many of the channel's latest uploads to check each run. |
Only new since last run | on | Remember seen video IDs across runs and return only newly-found videos (turns this into an upload trigger). |
Max video age (hours) | 24 | Skip videos older than this many hours. |
