Hi, I am trying to build an automation that takes a long youtube video as an input and then after analyzing via gpt 4, it gives me key moments or timestamps to be used for reels creation. Is this possible or is there any app available that take the timestamp as an input and returns me the clipped video of that timestamp? ---

Welcome to the Make community! I think it should be possible. You can use an external API like [Youtube To Mp3 Download](https://rapidapi.com/CoolGuruji/api/youtube-to-mp3-download) to get an audio file of the video (so that it doesn’t take up as much data transfer compared to a video file), then you can probably pass it to OpenAI “Create a Transcription” module. # How to call an API on RapidAPI Use the HTTP “Make an API Key Auth Request” module. Create a new keychain connection and insert your RapidAPI API Key. Key: `` API Key parameter name: `X-RapidAPI-Key` ![](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/9/b/9b32b8574bfdf816cb12d2be463fac000ae3c54a.png) You can reuse this RapidAPI keychain for all API calls to RapidAPI, you’ll just need to change the `X-RapidAPI-Host` value based on the API you are calling. I would suggest completing the **Make Academy** before jumping into building a complete scenario. If you need **specific assistance** when you are **building a scenario** it’s easier to help you then.
