跟踪 YouTube 视频观看次数和评论

编码水平:初级
时长:20 分钟
项目类型:使用定时触发器实现自动化

目标

  • 了解解决方案的功能。
  • 了解 Apps 脚本服务在解决方案中的作用。
  • 设置脚本。
  • 运行脚本。

关于此解决方案

此解决方案可在 Google 表格中跟踪公开 YouTube 视频的观看次数、赞和评论等效果数据。此触发器每天都会检查是否有更新的信息,如果视频有新的评论活动,则会发送电子邮件,以便您参与问题和评论互动。

运作方式

该脚本使用高级 YouTube 服务来获取每个工作表中视频链接列中列出的视频网址的 YouTube 视频详细信息和统计数据。 如果所列视频的评论数量有所增加,脚本会向工作表的命名所用的电子邮件地址发送电子邮件通知。

Apps 脚本服务

此解决方案使用以下服务:

前提条件

如需使用此示例,您需要满足以下前提条件:

  • Google 账号(Google Workspace 账号可能需要管理员批准)。
  • 可访问互联网的网络浏览器。

设置脚本

创建 Apps 脚本项目

  1. 点击以下按钮,复制跟踪 YouTube 视频观看次数和评论电子表格。此解决方案的 Apps 脚本项目已附加到电子表格。
    制作副本
  2. 在复制的电子表格中,将 Your_Email_Address 工作表的名称更改为您的电子邮件地址。
  3. 添加您要跟踪的 YouTube 视频网址,或使用提供的网址进行测试。网址必须以 www.youtube.com/watch?v= 格式开头。
  4. 依次点击扩展程序 > Google Apps 脚本。如果 YouTube 已列在服务下,您可以跳过接下来的 2 个步骤。
  5. 服务旁边,点击“添加服务”图标
  6. 从列表中选择 YouTube Data API,然后点击添加

创建触发器

  1. 在 Apps 脚本项目中,依次点击触发器 > 添加触发器
  2. 选择要运行的功能部分,选择 markVideos
  3. 对于选择事件来源,选择时间驱动
  4. 选择基于时间的触发器的类型中,选择每日计时器
  5. 对于选择时段,请选择您偏好的时间。
  6. 根据提示为脚本授权。 如果 OAuth 权限请求页面显示警告此应用未经过验证,请继续操作,依次选择高级 > 前往“{项目名称}”(不安全)

运行脚本

您设置的触发器每天运行一次脚本。您可以手动运行该脚本以进行测试。

  1. 在 Apps 脚本项目中,点击编辑器图标
  2. 在函数下拉菜单中,选择 markVideos
  3. 点击运行
  4. 切换回电子表格,查看脚本添加到工作表中的信息。
  5. 打开电子邮件,查看其中列出了评论数量大于零的视频。当脚本在未来运行时,它只会发送电子邮件,其中包含自上次运行脚本以来评论数量有所增加的视频。
