Hello everyone,
I have a question regarding a task that I want Node-RED to help me with. I'm a beginner and know basically nothing about this. Maybe it's very simple, I don't know.
I want to receive an email every time a new video is uploaded to a YouTube channel as I have specified. Actually several channels of course, but we can start with one. The email should be sent fairly immediately, perhaps after a maximum of 10-15 minutes after the new upload. I want the email subject to contain the channel name and the new video title. The email body does not have to contain anything other than a direct link to the new video. That's all!
Today I use IFTTT for this task and it works perfectly. But as everyone knows, this service costs so I am looking for a free alternative that can do exactly the same thing.
I have Node-RED installed on my Synology NAS with Docker and I suspect I should use the nodes Feedparser and Email. My first question is, is this task possible to do with Node-RED? Can any expert here help me and come up with tips on how this can be done most easily?
