NetworksRolling out

YouTube Shorts.

Upload videos and Shorts through Blendin's API or your AI assistant. There is no Create screen for YouTube yet, and access is limited because it is rolling out.

Rolling out, so access is limited for now. Uploads go through the API and MCP, not the Create screen.

An illustration of what a YouTube upload carries: a title, a made for kids answer and a privacy choice. Today it is sent through the API or MCP, and YouTube is rolling out.

The short answer

What Blendin does on YouTube.

What Blendin does on YouTube, one question per row
What can I upload?Videos and Shorts to the channel you connected. A Short is a vertical video, ideally under 60 seconds, and Blendin adds #Shorts to the description.
What can I set?A title up to 100 characters, a full description, public, unlisted or private, tags and a category.
What about made for kids?You declare it on every upload. Blendin never fills it in for you, because YouTube asks for the declaration each time.
Can I disclose synthetic media?Yes. There is a switch for realistic altered or synthetic content, which YouTube asks creators to disclose.
Can I schedule an upload?Yes, through the API or MCP: send a time between one minute and one year ahead and Blendin uploads then.
How big can the video be?Up to 256 MB, fetched from a public https link or uploaded straight to Blendin's storage first.
Can I reply to comments?Yes, once you grant the comments permission. Blendin asks for it only when you need it.
What do Insights show?Channel totals, recent uploads and 28 days of views once you grant the analytics permission. History is 30 days on Free, 90 days on Creator, 1 year on Pro and 2 years on Business.
What is the upload limit?YouTube limits uploads per day for the whole app, so an upload can be refused with a clear message at busy times.

Made for how YouTube works.

  • Videos and Shorts

    Send a finished video and a title, and Blendin uploads it to the channel you connected.

  • Permissions when you need them

    Blendin asks to upload and read at connect. Comments and analytics are requested later, one at a time.

  • Comments, answered

    Reply to comments from the Comments hub once the comments permission is granted.

  • Channel insights

    Channel totals, your recent uploads and 28 days of views, with honest states for anything missing.

  • Consent before every write

    Blendin asks before each upload and shows Terms and privacy links at connect.

  • Clean disconnect

    Disconnect and Blendin revokes access and deletes the YouTube data it stored.

Three steps, then repeat.

  1. 1

    Connect your channel

    Sign in with Google and choose the channel. Upload and read permissions come first.

  2. 2

    Send a video

    Through the API or the MCP server, with a title, a privacy setting and the made for kids answer.

  3. 3

    Grant more if you want it

    Add the comments or analytics permission later, only when you need replies or insights.

What Blendin does not do on YouTube

Ask us anything.

Can I schedule YouTube Shorts with Blendin?

Yes, through the API or the MCP server. Send a vertical video with a title and a time between one minute and one year ahead, and Blendin uploads it then. Nothing goes out unless you or your assistant sent it with the publish permission, and a dry run checks it first.

Is the YouTube connection available to everyone?

Not yet. It is rolling out, so access is limited for now.

What do I have to declare when I upload?

Whether the video is made for kids, every time, because YouTube asks for it and Blendin never defaults it. There is also a switch to disclose realistic altered or synthetic content.

Can I reply to YouTube comments in Blendin?

Yes, once you grant the comments permission. Blendin requests it only when you need it, and every reply is sent with exactly your text after one confirmation.

What YouTube insights does Blendin show?

Channel totals, your recent uploads and 28 days of views once the analytics permission is granted. A number YouTube does not send is an honest state, never a zero.

Is there a limit on YouTube uploads?

Yes. YouTube limits uploads per day for the whole app, so an upload can be refused with a clear message at busy times.

What happens to my YouTube data if I disconnect?

Blendin revokes its access and deletes the YouTube data it stored. Stored YouTube data is refreshed or deleted within 30 days either way.

Can I add a custom thumbnail through Blendin?

Not yet. A cover or thumbnail offset is refused on YouTube uploads, so YouTube's own thumbnail applies.
