  • Keep datasets aligned with channel structure

  • 2Create an automation that creates a named dataset for each new playlist.
  • 3Pick New Playlist in YouTube Channel as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where reports go and test with one real playlist.

Questions about this workflow

How is the dataset named?

Describe your naming convention in the automation prompt, such as the playlist title plus a suffix.

Can this also seed the dataset?
