How to Watch Only YouTube Shorts in "Watch Videos" Module?

How To

Hi everyone! :waving_hand:

I’m building an automation in Make that monitors a YouTube channel for new Shorts only, but I’m running into a blocker.

I’m using the YouTube > Watch Videos module, but it doesn’t seem to return the video duration field or any clear indication of whether a video is a Short. All I can see are the thumbnail URLs and some basic metadata — no video type, no duration, and no way to verify if there is /shorts/ path in the URL.

My goal is to:

  1. Watch for new Shorts uploaded to specific channels.
  2. Trigger further steps in my scenario only if the video is a Short.

I thought I could filter by video duration or URL pattern, but that info doesn’t look to be available in the output of the module.

Has anyone figured out a reliable way to detect and filter only Shorts in Make?

I’d really appreciate any guidance or workarounds.

Thanks in advance!
