This is a kind of fun workflow (maybe useful for some folks) that will fetch a random comment from any video picked from YouTube.

The steps are very simple:

**Step 1**: Get the URL of the Video from which the comment is to be fetched.

**Step 2**: Get your YouTube Data API Key.

If you already have one, you are good to go.

If you don’t, follow these simple steps mentioned in the document attached. It only takes 5 minutes.

  

Provide the Data obtained from both steps above to the workflow.

_in\_VideoURL – URL from Step1_

_in\_APIkey – API key from Step2_

_in\_SearchString – (Optional) If this string is provided, only comments containing this string will be considered for selection._

**Note:**

*   in\_SearchString matches comments with the same case, Upper and Lower case only.
*   The time taken by the process to pick a random comment depends on the number of comments a video has. If there are numerous comments, the process will take longer time.
