YouTube to Drive Downloader Setup
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I need a reliable way to pull every video from several YouTube channels straight into my Google Drive. I don’t mind whether you build a small Python script with youtube-dl/yt-dlp, set up a Google Apps Script, or configure a cloud instance—what matters is that every file ends up in Drive without me having to babysit the process.
Key expectations
• I simply enter one or more channel URLs and the tool grabs every existing video.
• The same solution can be re-run later so newly published videos are captured without duplicates.
• Files land in Drive in a tidy structure (a basic folder per channel is fine).
• No quality downscaling; keep the original resolution offered by YouTube.
Deliverables
1. Working script or service with clear setup instructions.
2. A brief walkthrough (text or quick screencast) showing it downloading from at least one test channel into my Drive.
3. Notes on any API keys, rate-limit considerations or quotas I should watch.
If you have a lightweight approach that avoids YouTube API quotas—or you prefer to leverage the official API—let me know in your proposal.
