Embedding a YouTube Channel in Teams
- May 20, 2020Yeah, you would simply mod a flow like this one

Remove the mail action and then add a teams action to post to a channel
Hope that makes sense and answers your question

Hi Peter
Just came across your question, and I stumbled upon an easier way. Youtube actually supports RSS feeds, so you could simply follow the guide below to set that up with the RSS feed connector. Simply fill in this feed: https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=THE_CHANNEL_ID_HERE

Edit: I'm sorry, I posted this before I tested and this doesn't seem to work anymore it seems. I think it's related to the format of channel ID's being changed to usernames somewhere in the past few years.
Cheers,
Niels
Hope you are well. Just getting back to tech community after a long period off, so thanks for bearing with me as I clean out my mailbox 😄
Yeah, RSS would have been an option at one point, but connectors are kind on their way to being sunsetted as Microsoft looks to use Power Automate more, which in Teams world is starting to be renamed from a UI persepctive as workflows. Using Power Automate is recommended both from the requirements outlined above and also because it is the authorative solution in Microsoft's kitbag.
Hope that makes sense. Thanks again for your question and keep them coming in
Best, Chris
