The YouTube Notifier module allows your server to track up to 5 YouTube channels. Whenever one of the tracked channels uploads a new video, ZEON will automatically post a beautiful notification directly into your chosen Discord channel.
Required Permission: Admin Access or higher — Server Owner, Extra Owner, Trusted User, or Administrator with a role above the bot can use these commands. Premium Feature: This module requires an active Premium subscription. If the server’s premium expires, the YouTube Notifier system will be automatically disabled.
Adding a Channel
To start tracking a YouTube channel, use the .notifier add command. You can provide the channel’s URL, @handle, or direct channel ID.
| Command | Description |
|---|
.notifier add <url> <channel> | Starts tracking the specified YouTube channel and sends its new uploads to the selected Discord channel. |
Tracking Limit: There is a strict limit of 5 tracked YouTube channels per server. If you reach this limit, you must use .notifier remove to delete an old channel before adding a new one.
Due to infrastructure caching and API limits, it can take up to 12 minutes for ZEON to detect and announce a newly uploaded video. The bot checks for new videos every 2 minutes, while the YouTube data fetcher securely caches results for 10 minutes to prevent rate-limiting.
Customizing Announcements
By default, ZEON uses a standard message when announcing new videos. You can customize this message for each individual YouTube channel you track.
| Command | Description |
|---|
.notifier message <target> <message> | Sets a custom announcement message for the specified YouTube channel. |
.notifier message <target> | If you run this without providing a message, it will reset the announcement back to the default text. |
Available Variables
When creating a custom message, you can use the following variables to dynamically insert information about the video:
{channel} - The name of the YouTube channel.{title} - The title of the newly uploaded video.{url} - The direct link to the video.
Managing Notifications
You can easily update where notifications are sent, test your setup, or remove channels you no longer want to track.
| Command | Description |
|---|
.notifier channel <target> <channel> | Changes the Discord channel where the YouTube notifications are sent. |
.notifier remove <target> | Stops tracking the specified YouTube channel. |
.notifier test <target> | Sends a test notification to ensure your channel and message are configured correctly. |
When using commands like message, channel, or remove, ZEON provides a fast Auto-Complete dropdown menu so you don’t have to type the full YouTube channel name manually.
General Configuration
| Command | Description |
