Caption data null - when it shouldn't be

This seems to be happening frequently. Pulling caption data is null but data does exist for it.

Here is the video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1h9PBGgT8w

Hello,

The video doesn't seem like having captions. Can you please elaborate a bit on the issue so we can investigate more?

Cheers

Sure. I'm doing a bit of a work around to get the youtube transcript. The transcript URL is within the Captions field data. I've run the agent a few times on the video url, and sometimes the captions field is null, other times it produces results.

{{ $json.captions.captionTracks[0].base_url }}

So while there might not be any captions, when the Captions section is null I get an error in my workflow.

Hello,

Is it possible for you to share a run ID where this field produced results on the same video? That'll help us a lot in the investigation process.

Cheers

Sure. I just ran it and it pulled in the caption fields successfully.

Hello,

We couldn't reproduce the exact issue however it might happen because the owner of the video hide it for some time (unplayable) and then enabled later at a point.

Closing te issue for now (since it is working). Let us know if you have more issues.

Cheers

Happened again. But this is less frequent than what I was experiencing before.

ID: iLU307xNchSPaCTni - Failed, only brought in 1 field under captions.

There is a transcript: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNp7I4an1_k
