Scheduling and Publishing YouTube Shorts

Overview

You can publish YouTube Shorts two ways: record and publish in the Social Cascade Teleprompter app (the fastest way), or schedule a video from the Calendar in the web app. YouTube isn't part of auto-scheduling, so you choose the date and time for every Short.

Before You Start

• Your YouTube channel is connected to Social Cascade.
• Your video is vertical or square and 3 minutes or less. See Understanding YouTube Shorts Video Requirements.
• You're an Admin or Editor on your team.

How to Publish from the Teleprompter App

1. Record your Short in the Teleprompter app.
2. On the post draft screen, select YouTube.
3. Add your caption and confirm your platforms.
4. Tap Post Now, or tap Schedule, pick a date and time, and tap Schedule post.

After your video finishes processing, Post Now publishes about 20 minutes later. If you pick a time sooner than that, Social Cascade moves it to 20 minutes out. This gives the video time to upload to YouTube.

In the Web Teleprompter, choose Publish now or Schedule under Destination, then click Process Video.

How to Schedule a Short from the Calendar

1. Open the Calendar in the web app.
2. On the day you want, click Add new and choose content with a vertical or square video of 3 minutes or less. Or click an existing post to edit it.
3. Under Post on:, select YouTube. If YouTube isn't listed, the content has no video for YouTube or the video is longer than 3 minutes.
4. Set the date and time.
5. Click Schedule (or Save for an existing post).

The Short's title is your content's name, so check it before you schedule.
