Video generated but Google Drive Failed

:bullseye: What is your goal?

I would like to get some help getting me up and running with my first automation

:thinking: What is the problem?

Hi all,

I’m brand new to the space, but having a bit of trouble getting to grips with things.

I want to learn how to create automated videos, I can happily read in a google sheet and generate an image / audio / video based on a prompt (and the image & audio saved fine into my google docs).

But when I ran the video, I have seen errors when trying to save it.

I am seeing the errors:
Validation failed for 2 parameter(s).
Missing value of required parameter ‘filename’.
Missing value of required parameter ‘data’.

I’m also keen to know if I’m missing something in terms of efficient ways to setup / test the automation. Now I’ve had the error, the only way I can see to test any changes I’ve made to the google drive parameters is to run the whole thing again, which costs operations and also money in terms of my ChatGPT video generation. It feels like I should be able to use the output bundle from the chatGPT module to retry the google upload drive.

Really appreciate any advice! Thanks

:test_tube: What have you tried so far?

Have tried putting in a name in “new file name” and changing around with google drive parameters, but to no avail.

Also each run is costing a bit so want to become more efficient at debugging.

I figured out what was wrong, I needed to wait for the video to generate completely before it would upload to google drive (it essentially didn’t have anything to upload as it was too keen).

I’d still love to discuss the bit about if you can find the video anywhere once the OpenAI video has been generated. Or if not viewed, maybe still used in the next step. I think this applies to other modules too (I had the same issue with elevenLabs, having to keep rerunning the generation)

Thanks!

Hey there,

toggle Advanced settings and there is an option to have the module wait for the video to generate.
