Does SocialPilot support scheduling videos to YouTube?

SocialPilot now supports scheduling and posting videos on YouTube for its users, which it previously did not. This scheduling ability will help you completely automate the process of your YouTube marketing. The easy use of video content will enable you to get a larger exposure on social media.

Does SocialPilot allow publishing YouTube Shorts?

Yes, you can publish regular videos as well as Shorts from the tool’s integrated dashboard. But while scheduling any video, you don't have to specify its type. SocialPilot will automatically recognize it as Shorts or a regular video and publish it accordingly.

These are the specifications a video has to have to be identified as a YouTube Shorts

It must be vertically oriented.
The duration of the video must be less than 60 seconds.

When a video has these criteria, SocialPilot will publish it as a Shorts. The norms for a regular video varies slightly.

- For verified channel - 12 hours
