It filters videos published in the last hour and automatically excludes YouTube Shorts. Each new video triggers a RocketChat notification with channel name, title, and link.\n\n## Setup steps\n\n1. Create RocketChat bot user and get API credentials\n2. Add bot to your notification channel\n3. Edit Channel List node: Add YouTube channel URLs, one per line\n4. Configure RocketChat node: Select credentials and set channel name\n5. Test manually: Run workflow to verify notifications work\n6. Activate: Enable workflow for automatic hourly monitoring\n\nBest practice: Keep hourly schedule to avoid rate limits and match the 1-hour filter window."
