Display YouTube Subscriber Count on Ulanzi AWTRIX Smart Clock

This n8n workflow fetches the subscriber count of a specified YouTube channel using the YouTube Data API v3 and displays the compacted number on an AWTRIX 3 or Ulanzi Smart Clock. It triggers every hour (customizable), retrieves the data with a simple GET request, formats the count for readability (e.g., 1.2M subscribers), and sends a POST request to the device's local API with a YouTube-style icon for a sleek notification display.

Setup is straightforward: obtain a YouTube API key from Google Cloud Console, note your channel ID, find your AWTRIX local IP, and get an icon ID from the AWTRIX gallery (e.g., 26963 for YouTube). Replace placeholders in the HTTP nodes—no coding needed. Ideal for content creators monitoring growth on a dedicated smart display without apps or phones.

Benefits include real-time visibility of subscriber milestones, customizable scheduling for efficiency, and seamless IoT integration. Use cases: track personal channels, client analytics, or community metrics on always-on clocks. Saves time versus manual checks and adds a motivational dashboard element to your workspace.

Powered by n8n's Schedule Trigger and HTTP Request nodes, it's lightweight, reliable, and extensible—add error handling or multi-channel support easily.
