See it the way YouTube will

The composer previews every destination as that platform renders it — media cropped the way it will crop, the caption truncated where it will truncate. What you see here is the composer’s own preview component, not a mock-up of one.

One post, nine platforms — Ravenpost in 24 seconds

One of our own posts, in YouTube’s preview.

Scheduling YouTube, specifically

Shorts need no separate setting

YouTube classifies a vertical video under three minutes as a Short itself. There is no Shorts API and nothing to opt into — upload the right aspect ratio and it lands as a Short.

A real title, separate from the body

YouTube is the only platform here with a title distinct from the description, so the composer gives it its own field. The description takes up to 5,000 characters.

Made-for-kids declared per upload

YouTube requires an answer on every upload, so the composer asks rather than guessing.

What YouTube allows

Straight from the app’s platform registry — the same limits the composer enforces.

Caption limit: 5,000 characters
Images per post: No
Videos per post: 1
Text-only posts: No
Threads: No
Analytics: Not available
Delete from Ravenpost: Yes

Worth knowing first

An upload from an API project that hasn’t passed YouTube’s compliance audit is locked to private viewing whatever privacy you request — that is YouTube’s restriction on every unaudited client, not a Ravenpost limit. YouTube analytics are not collected yet.

Media guidance

One video. Vertical (9:16) and under 3 minutes publishes as a Short; anything else is a normal video.

And everywhere else, from the same post

YouTube is one of 9 platforms Ravenpost publishes to. Write once, give any platform its own caption, and preview each one before it goes out.

YouTube scheduling questions

Can I schedule YouTube Shorts?

Yes. Upload a vertical video under three minutes and YouTube classifies it as a Short automatically — there is no separate Shorts endpoint to target.

Why is my scheduled video private?

Until an API project passes YouTube’s compliance audit, YouTube forces uploads from it to private regardless of the privacy you ask for. It applies to every unaudited client.

Can I schedule a video and an Instagram reel from the same post?

Yes — that is the point of the composer. One video, one caption, and each platform gets the title, description or caption that suits it.
