Generate AI Videos with Google Veo3, Save to Google Drive and Upload to YouTube

Benefits of this Workflow

• 💡 No Code Interface: Trigger and control the video production pipeline from a simple Google Sheet.

• ⚙️ Full Automation: Once set up, the entire video generation and publishing process runs hands-free.

• 🧠 AI-Powered Creativity:

  • Generates engaging YouTube titles using GPT-4o.
  • Leverages advanced generative video AI from Google Veo3.

• 📁 Cloud Storage & Backup: Stores all generated videos on Google Drive for safekeeping.

• 📈 YouTube Ready: Automatically uploads to YouTube with correct metadata, saving time and boosting visibility.

• 🧪 Scalable: Designed to process multiple video prompts by looping through new entries in Google Sheets.

• 🔒 API-First: Utilizes secure API-based communication for all services.

How It Works

1. Trigger: The workflow can be started manually ("When clicking ‘Test workflow’") or scheduled ("Schedule Trigger") to run at regular intervals (e.g., every 5 minutes).
2. Fetch Data: The "Get new video" node retrieves unfilled video requests from a Google Sheet (rows where the "VIDEO" column is empty).
3. Video Creation:
   • The "Set data" node formats the prompt and duration from the Google Sheet.
   • The "Create Video" node sends a request to the Fal.run API (Google Veo3) to generate a video based on the prompt.
4. Status Check:
   • The "Wait 60 sec." node pauses execution for 60 seconds.
   • The "Get status" node checks the video generation status. If the status is "COMPLETED," the workflow proceeds; otherwise, it waits again.
5. Video Processing:
   • The "Get Url Video" node fetches the video URL.
   • The "Generate title" node uses OpenAI (GPT-4.1) to create an SEO-optimized YouTube title.
   • The "Get File Video" node downloads the video file.
6. Upload & Update:
   • The "Upload Video" node saves the video to Google Drive.
   • The "HTTP Request" node uploads the video to YouTube via the Upload-Post API.
   • The "Update Youtube URL" and "Update result" nodes update the Google Sheet with the video URL and YouTube link.

Set Up Steps

1. Google Sheet Setup:

   • Create a Google Sheet with columns: PROMPT, DURATION, VIDEO, and YOUTUBE_URL.
   • Share the Sheet link in the "Get new video" node.

2. API Keys:

   • Obtain a Fal.run API key (for Veo3) and set it in the "Create Video" node (Header: Authorization: Key YOURAPIKEY).
   • Get an Upload-Post API key (for YouTube uploads) and configure the "HTTP Request" node (Header: Authorization: Apikey YOUR_API_KEY).

3. YouTube Upload Configuration:

   • Replace YOUR_USERNAME in the "HTTP Request" node with your Upload-Post profile name.

4. Schedule Trigger:

   • Configure the "Schedule Trigger" node to run periodically (e.g., every 5 minutes).
