How do I connect YouTube Transcript?

Sign up for Conductor Deck, then add a YouTube Transcript step to a workflow on the visual canvas. The builder walks you through the connection it needs — an account authorization or the required keys — right inside the step. No separate setup or code.

Yes — Conductor Deck has a free tier you can build and run workflows on, with no credit card required. Paid plans raise the monthly run limits and add advanced features when you need them.

What's the difference between a trigger and an action?

A trigger is the event that starts a workflow — for example, a Stream Deck button press or an incoming event from a connected app. An action is a step the workflow performs once it runs. A workflow is one trigger followed by one or more actions.

Triggers & actions

Steps your workflow can perform in YouTube Transcript.

Get Stored Transcript

Read a transcript already stored in the connected account without submitting new transcription work or consuming retrieval credits.

Get Video Transcript

Fetch captions for one YouTube video and store the resulting transcript in the connected account. This consumes provider credits, but never starts ASR. The tool waits up to 20 seconds for asynchronous caption jobs; if one is still processing, use GET_VIDEO_TRANSCRIPT_JOB_STATUS with the job_id from the timeout.

Get Video Transcript Job Status

Read one transcript job's current processing, completed, failed, or requires-ASR-confirmation state without creating work or waiting. Use this one-shot read when GET_VIDEO_TRANSCRIPT times out, passing the same include flags to recover the requested transcript shape.

Get Video Transcripts Batch

Fetch and store captions for 1-10 YouTube videos. Each uncached video can consume provider credits, so cost scales with the request size. ASR never starts. This creates one batch and waits up to 20 seconds for a terminal result; if it is still processing, use GET_VIDEO_TRANSCRIPTS_BATCH_STATUS with the batch_id from the timeout.

Get Video Transcripts Batch Status

Read the current state and available per-video results for a transcript batch without creating work or waiting. Use this one-shot read to recover when GET_VIDEO_TRANSCRIPTS_BATCH times out while the provider is still processing.

List Stored Transcripts

List and search transcripts already stored in the connected account, one bounded page at a time.

List Transcript Languages

List stored languages and YouTube translation target languages for one owned video transcript.

Resolve Channel Videos

Requires Basic or higher. Resolve a YouTube channel into bounded upload metadata without transcribing the videos. This may count against the account's monthly channel allowance.
