Hi PeterJ_Inobits
You could do this with a web tab. Get the URL of the page on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/user/windowsazure), then in the channel > Add Tab > Web Page > add URL
Currently there isn't a connector for YouTube like RSS/Trello etc which would pull through a notification every time a video is added to a Channel. You could use Power Automate to get it in there

You could also technically sign up for an MSN account, then subscribe to the YouTube channel and then forward email from the MSN account to a Teams channel address. I personally would just use the webpage tab instead. I wouldn't recommend this approach
So go with the website tab or the Power Automate connector 😄

Thanks Chris. I thought it might be something like that. So the idea would be to have a PowerAutomate app that had credentials in it of an account that was subscribed to the YouTube Channel in question and every time a new video was added it would post the link into the channel right?
Now to go off down the PowerAutomate rabbit hole 😉
