You can customize: \n - The template used\n - The prompt to generate the clip\n - If you want captions or not\n - The minimum or maximum duration of the clip\n- Wait a little while, the magic happens.\n- Check if the job status is **completed**\n - If **yes**, it send an success **email**\n - If **no**, it will **loop**\n - As a failsafe, after 10 iterations in the loop, it will send an error email \n\n### Getting Started\nEdit those nodes with your settings and credentials.\n- **When New Video**: Set the Feed URL to the YouTube channel you want to follow (ex: \n- **Create a clip**: Add your credential.
