YouTube and Shorts
Auto-posting to YouTube and Shorts
Upload a video once, pick a time, and Autoposter sends it to your YouTube channel. A vertical video up to three minutes long is shown as a Short.
What you can publish
- Regular videos with title, description and tags
- Shorts: vertical 9:16 videos up to 3 minutes
- A YouTube description separate from other networks
- View stats in the dashboard
How to connect
- In the dashboard open Accounts and press YouTube.
- Sign in to the Google account that owns the channel and allow video uploads.
- The channel appears in the list and can be picked when you publish.
Questions
Do I give you my Google password?
No. You sign in on Google's page and Autoposter only gets an upload key. Revoke it in Google security settings or with Disconnect in the dashboard.
Can I connect several channels?
Yes, within your plan's channel limit. Each channel is connected separately.
Why did my Short come out as a regular video?
Usually because it is horizontal or longer than three minutes. Make it 9:16 and shorter.
