We all want to keep our Discord community updated with our latest content on YouTube, or just want to stay updated with latest content from our favorite creators on YouTube, right inside our Discord server.

Sometimes we only want alerts for videos, shorts , premieres, or only live streams, instead of all the updates.

Sometimes we only want an alert when the content is something related to what we're interested in, like for example if the title contains a word. How do we do that?

Notify bot is here to make it all simple for you. You can filter out the notifications based on various criteria, like content type, maturity rating, includes or excludes something in the title and more, and customize how they appear on your Discord server, the easiest and the fastest way.

Let's see how to do that.

Setup

All you need to do is login to Notify bot's dashboard with your Discord account, select your Discord server from the list and invite Notify bot to your server by clicking the Invite button.

That's it, you're ready to start adding YouTube notifications.

You'll now see a list of integrations that Notify bot supports on your Notify dashboard, which might look something like this.
YouTube
Twitch
Trovo
Kick
Rumble
Reddit
Odysee

Select YouTube to start adding YouTube notifications to your Discord server.

Creating the notification

You should now see a + button to create a new YouTube notification.

You probably can figure things out on your own now, it's pretty simple, just go with the flow.

Here's some information what each tab is about.

In the basic tab, fill in the basic details like the url of the YouTube channel you want alerts from, the Discord text channel where you want the alerts to be sent, the alert message itself, you can also type which roles to mention right in the text box like you do on Discord. Cool, right?

Clean-up

Last but not the least, clean-up? We don't want our Discord to show live alert when the stream ends, right? Just check the live checkbox in the Clean-up section to auto delete the alert from Discord after the live stream ends.

Just click on the save button which is shown as a check mark to create your YouTube notification.

That's it, you've created your first YouTube notification using Notify.

You can now create notifications for whichever integrations you want, and Notify will send alerts to your Discord server as you want.
