Here are a few important details to pay attention to while scheduling your YouTube Shorts, to ensure that your videos will be successfully published:
You’ll need to have a YouTube channel to connect it to Plann. You can create your channel on either the YouTube website or the YouTube mobile site.
You will be required to set a title for your shorts, serving as the video description.
We will ask you to choose some visibility settings (Public, Private, Unlisted), and Kid’s Restriction** (Yes/No) which are mandatory for auto-posting.
You can set additional options like playlist, license type, category, and tags for your videos.
Adding a thumbnail (cover image) is not currently available for YouTube Shorts
The videos must be vertically oriented (portrait or square).
The duration should be less than 60 seconds.
Ideally, videos should not exceed 500 MB in size.
**Here’s a help article from YouTube to help you determine if your video is made for kids or not according to their guidelines.
Note: Once a YouTube Short is published, recreating it on Plann is not supported due to API limitations. You can, however, recreate drafts and unpublished posts.
