YouTube
Uploading videos to your channel: channel requirements, privacy and comments.
What you need
- A YouTube channel on your Google account.
- For videos longer than 15 minutes, a phone-verified account (youtube.com/verify).
Connect
- In My networks, choose Connect on YouTube.
- Pick your Google account and, if you have several, the channel.
- Accept the permissions.
What the composer checks
- Video only (one video per post).
- Title and description (up to 5,000 characters); you choose public, unlisted or private. It's private by default.
- Short vertical videos are published as Shorts.
Common errors
- The video ended up private: that's the default; choose Public in the composer before publishing.
- “Requires at least one video”: YouTube doesn't accept text-only or photo posts from other apps.
- Comments on your videos arrive in the Inbox and you can reply from there.
