This automation scenario allows you to connect YouTube and Pocket
It can be build using Ifttt, a no-code workflow automation tool. Ifttt allows you to create automated bots using a simple drag-and-drop interface for non-technical users. This is a ready-made scenario, but it can be customized by adding more apps, actions, filters or branches.

YouTube and Pocket can also be integrated using automation tools other than ifttt:
When this trigger fires in YouTube
This Trigger fires every time a video is published that matches a search query.

This Action will add a new item to your Pocket queue. NOTE: If using an RSS feed Trigger, please limit the number of Pocket saves to no more than a few hundred per week
