One node for native and generated transcripts
The Capslane node accepts an incoming YouTube URL, mode, optional language and output format. It returns one n8n item containing the API response and preserves timestamped segments. The source and workflow examples are available on GitHub. Catalog installation will follow npm publication.
Keep the API key in an n8n credential
- Create a Capslane API key.
- Add a Capslane API credential in n8n.
- Store the key in the password field.
- Select that credential on the Capslane node.
The credential injects x-api-key at request time. It should not be placed in node parameters or workflow JSON.
Connect a URL-producing trigger
Map a YouTube URL from a webhook, Google Sheets, RSS or another node into the URL field. Choose plain text for summaries and knowledge bases, or segments for media and quote workflows.
Wait for generated jobs when the workflow needs the final text
The node can poll accepted jobs for up to twenty minutes. Disable waiting when another workflow should store the job ID and continue asynchronously.
