Workflow

Request: the code to send to the API

Send an API request to this endpoint in order to upload a video on behalf of a YouTuber user:

POST /push/identities/<identity_token>/youtube/video.json

The <identity_token> is obtained whenever one of your users connects using his YouTube account.

Successfully uploaded videos are identified by a video_id that can be used to add the video to a playlist.

Please note that video uploads are processed asynchronously. After having received your request, our API will first download the video from the specified URL and then upload it to YouTube. Once the upload is finished, the result will be posted to the specified callback_url.

To be able to use this endpoint, YouTube must be fully configured for your OneAll Site. The permission Upload Videos has to be enabled and the user must have given consent to publish content on his behalf when he logged in with YouTube.
