Skills needed for making automation bots?

vikasind said:
I have 500 videos that I scraped from Instagram. Now I want to upload them to youtube in the form of shorts. I want to upload 20 videos every day at different points in time. Right now, I am manually uploading them to the youtube creator studio and scheduling them each day. This is the first thing I do when I wake up. Now, it is kinda annoying since videos aren't getting too much traction. I want to automate this process. I want someone(a bot in this case) to upload videos every day and schedule them. How can I achieve this? I have 2 channels.. Is there a way to automate this?

The same goes for Facebook reels. I have to every time open the window and schedule 100s of videos which honestly takes a hell lot of time. Is there a way to automate such things? I don't wanna scrape anything. I have everything ready. I just want to automate this uploading and scheduling thing

Python+selenium would be fine no?
 
Here’s a skill that noone talks about, but is pretty much needed….


Master the developer panel of the browser you are using to bot (even if you are not using a browser, it will still be useful). Often times, it will give you info that will make things much much easier. Specially master the inspect element, network and application tabs.

You could always google the terms I mentioned individually. All in all, when you want to automate something, you need to know what exactly goes behind the scene when things are done manually . E.g., what requests are getting sent, what cookies/local storage/session storage data getting set/stored/removed and exactly when.., or simply what element xpath/id/class etc to target and so on. Your best friend in this detective work is the developer toolbar provided by chrome/chromium/firefox/safari.

It’s a big topic and I am afraid, I can’t sum it up in a single post.

I started learning Python at beginning of the August. Last day I saw a guideline from @Sartre and bookmarked it. You can follow these steps in your journey.

thanks for the mention :)
 
Python is the most popular language in automation nowadays. Just learn how to use APIs, Selenium, and requests (scrape them with a simple browser addon) and you're home :) You can find scripts on StackOverflow or GitHub and just edit them, its really easy!

Do you also automate things?

Can someone please tell me what skills are required to make automation bots that let you scrape, edit, upload, and schedule content on youtube? What skills in the sense what programming languages are needed to be learned to make automation bots for Reddit, Twitter, and other platforms?
Is python enough or do other languages need to be learned as well? I don't know shit about programming but I think it is a precious skill to be learned. I am planning to give 10 hrs a day to learn to program. someone, please guide

go to github and type in bot and filter through premade bots that people have uploaded for free.

This would help me in making bots that automate things right? Like on Pinterest these days, you can upload "idea pins" but not schedule it. There's no feature of scheduling it. Making a bot that posts automatically everyday can be done by leaning these two skills right?
Also brother, if this is so simple, why don't people learn it themselves and implement this? I saw a thread about automation where he made a bot that can scrape content from tiktok by hashtags, remove its background music, add a new copyright free music, compile 3-4 videos, publish and schedule them on the YouTube and he was posting like 100 shorts a day. People were ready to give him even 300 dollars for purchasing that bot. I don't understand why people aren't taking the step to learn such skills themselves if they are so easy to learn

"Easy" is not the correct term
Python is a programming language, learning a language is not "easy", you need to invest a lot time and brain
Also people always claim that python is a easy language not it is not, honestly it will take you almost the same time to learn any other language.
Python has a simple syntax thus its very efficient to use it cause you can write programs faster, now for automation what are you trying to automate decides what you need to learn
Assuming you are going to learn python (you can use almost any language to make automation tools) , if you want to automate desktop applications you can use pyautogui, if you want to automate web applications you can use selenium.
The example you gave you are probably going to need python and the following libs selenium, requests, something like moviepy (for video editing not 100% sure their might be other alternatives).
The reason why people are not taking the step is cause its not "Easy" also if i am making $500 a day and this tool will save me time, I will rather pay for then spends hours learning the skill and implementing it myself

Yeah, I am into automation for a few years. Actually botting YT is not easy. Maybe just use some addon like Autoclicker? It will be much simpler

uploading as far as i know is not really a problem. I have done similar stuff before and as far as I remember yt does not care about schedulers
