Metricool

Interact with Metricool social media management platform

Overview

The node integrates with the Metricool social media management platform, enabling users to interact with various social media resources and operations through Metricool's API. Specifically, for the Twitch resource with the "Get Videos" operation, it allows retrieving video data from Twitch channels managed via Metricool.

This node is beneficial for social media managers or marketers who want to automate the retrieval of Twitch video analytics or content data within their workflows. For example, a user can fetch videos published between specific dates to analyze performance or repurpose content.

Output

The exact structure depends on the Metricool API response but typically includes details such as video IDs, titles, URLs, publish dates, and possibly metrics related to each video.
