YouTube sources

YouTube sources give agents the transcribed content of public YouTube videos — product demos, lectures, training material. Flametree transcribes each video and indexes the transcript.

Add a video or channel​

  1. Open the YouTube tab and click Add new video.
  2. In the Add YouTube Video window, optionally select Connected agents.
  3. Paste a link to a YouTube video or channel into Paste your link.
    • A channel link lists the channel's videos. Filter the list with All, Videos, or Shorts and pick the videos to add.
    • Each video must be public and within the duration limit. The dialog rejects videos over 3 hours (This video exceeds the 3-hour limit and cannot be added.); your deployment may enforce a stricter limit during indexing — if a long video ends in Error, use a shorter one.
  4. Click Add.

The videos appear in the YouTube table with their Video name, Video Type, Status, Usage Count, Connected Agents, and Added date.

Review and refresh transcripts​

The row's View action opens a preview with the embedded video, its description, and an expandable Transcript section — read it to see exactly what the agent knows. The Edit Video window changes the title or connected agents, and Index re-fetches the transcript, for example after an Error.
