#Unfinished shortcut

So what I was trying to do is make a shortcut that would display the videos from a YouTube channel that were posted in the last day

Attached is a picture of what I have so far but I’ve experimented with so many things and I’m not sure what to put in the if statement

For the videos that have been posted in this day, I would like them to show up for the user to click and that’s where I’m having issues
I tried copying that URL from the list however it doesn’t appear to actually copy the URL
The only thing I got to work was the open URL‘s action however I don’t want it to open every video that fits the criteria. I just want the user to pick.

If needed, I can also provide an iCloud link of the shortcut

Thanks in advance

Hmm

#

I can’t see that website being supported for RSS feeds

vocal heron
#

YouTube is blocked on my device

#

I wanna know if u can make this

  1. Goes to the channel I want
  2. Gets latest videos
  3. Gets video link
  4. Changes the YouTube.com to 613tube.com

Is there anyway you would get those restrictions lifted?

#

I can look into making this for you however I’m not really sure how this would work

#

I’m pretty positive that it would require access to the RSS feeds of a specific channel on that 613 tube.com thing
This doesn’t appear to be possible, however there’s not much information on this site

When you search a channel, it pulls up their content however there’s no button to click into their channel like there is on YouTube

The RSS feeds watch the channel so this is obviously an issue

vocal heron
#

:(

candid halo
#

After looking at it for a bit
It may be possible

vocal heron

#

There seems to be a bit of similarities between the URLs of each video

vocal heron
#

Correct

#

Every YouTube video url

#

Is the same

balmy wave
#

The problem is that you cant use the youtube rss, it’s blocked

vocal heron

#

So is there any way

#

Because I only have the restriction on my phone not iPad tho

candid halo
#

Wait, when you run the shortcut above, will it show your videos from the RSS feed or is that when the error occurs?

#

I thought that happens when you try to click on a video

vocal heron
#

That’s when it occurs

candid halo
#

Oh damn…

vocal heron
#

Is there a way it can take the RSS feed from my iPad

candid halo
#

Does your iPad not have restrictions on it?

balmy wave
#

Then you’d have to run the shourtcut there and send a message with the links to your phone

vocal heron
#

💡

balmy wave
#

Not possible afaik

candid halo
#

If they are on the same Apple account, you can also copy and paste between devices

Which means if you were to copy the URL on your iPad, then you could paste it on your phone

vocal heron
#

I got an idea

candid halo
balmy wave
#

From what are the restrictions on your phone?

vocal heron
#

It can auto-run every day at X:YZ and send the results to my messages

balmy wave
#

You shouldn’t even be avoiding them in the first place

candid halo

#

The restrictions are there because I want filtered no ad YouTube

#

I don’t want a feed

#

Only a few channels

wtf?

Have a happy

Life

#

Not a YouTube life

balmy wave
#

Why are you then now actively avoiding them lol

vocal heron
candid halo
#

Yeah, I’m not sure this whole situation makes sense

vocal heron
#

With only a few channels I want

candid halo
#

But why not unblock YouTube and just use the other website?

vocal heron
#

So can you make a version that converts the url to 613tube though

#

The rest of the url is the same

balmy wave
#

You should be able to ye

candid halo
#

I believe so

vocal heron
#

:))))

#

:)

#

:)

balmy wave
#

String splitting

vocal heron
#

:)

candid halo
#

It should be pretty straightforward

#

So is that what you would like?

#

Just keep in mind this will only work if you unblock YouTube

vocal heron
#

So lease send the link :)

vocal heron
candid halo
#

Hold on
I’m just finishing it

vocal heron
#

Okay

#

I forgot the password was 1234 because I was making my downtime schedule

#

But now I can’t change it

candid halo
#

I have the shortcut ready, however it’s going to require you to lift that restriction

#

Now I didn’t put it in the shortcut with the RSS feeds however, this is what you would have to copy and paste for each feed

If you need help, I can show you where to put it

Can’t I change the link?

candid halo
vocal heron
#

I want from the list

candid halo
#

Sorry for the wait
I keep experiencing some sort of issue

#

@vocal heron
Hey, I kind of have it working however it doesn’t really seem to work for Mark rober

I don’t know if it’s because his latest content isn’t on the website?

#

I don’t understand how this website works, so I’m not sure if his latest content should be on there or if it takes a while for it to update

candid halo
#

So keep that in mind when using the shortcut
If a link fails to load, it must be a YouTube short

#

That should be it

vocal heron

Thanks
