100% Automated YouTube Uploads with n8n + Blotato: Is It Possible?

Learning To Change

Aug 24 • General Discussion 💬

Hey guys,

I’d like to ask you something about posting to social media using the new Blotato node in n8n.

My question is: is it possible (at this point in time) to publish videos on YouTube 100% automatically?

I need to focus on the “100% automated” part.

I’m asking because I created an automation that posts to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X, and a Facebook Page at once.

While I’m happy with the overall performance of the workflow, one thing still bugs me.

I still need to go to YouTube and manually change the following settings for each video (screenshots also provided):

“Altered content” → No
“Automatic chapters” → untick
“Featured places” → untick
“Automatic concepts” → untick

The most annoying part is that I still need to select the language of the video for both “Video language” and “Title and description language”. In my case, I need to set the language to Brazilian Portuguese because the Blotato node doesn’t offer an option to set the language inside the node.

My point is: my automation using the Blotato node has reduced the time I spend posting content to social media (especially YouTube) by around 95%. What used to take 10 minutes now takes 30 seconds. BUT I still need to do the things I mentioned above.

Am I missing something, or is this the best we can do right now when it comes to automating YouTube posting? If it were just the first four fields I mentioned, I’d be fine with that, but the fact that I need to manually open every video and change the language to Brazilian Portuguese makes the process feel a bit incomplete.

Does anyone know of any other way I could make this 100% automated?

Thanks in advance!
