Connecting YouTube Channels & Brand Accounts

PostEverywhere supports connecting multiple YouTube channels, including Brand Accounts managed under the same Google account.

What are Brand Accounts?​

A YouTube Brand Account is a channel that isn't directly tied to your personal Google account. It allows multiple people to manage a channel without sharing personal login credentials. Many businesses, organizations, and creators use Brand Accounts.

You might have a Brand Account if:

  • Your YouTube channel has a different name than your Google account
  • Multiple people manage your channel
  • You created your channel through a Google Brand Account

Connecting your channel​

  1. Go to the Accounts page
  2. Click Connect Account and select YouTube
  3. Sign in to your Google account
  4. If you have multiple channels, you'll be prompted to select which one to connect
  5. The selected channel will appear in your connected accounts list

Multiple channels​

If your Google account has access to multiple YouTube channels (personal + Brand Accounts):

  • Each channel can be connected separately
  • Select the specific channel you want during the connection flow
  • Each connected channel counts toward your plan's account limit

Posting to your channel​

YouTube only supports video content. When creating a post for YouTube, you'll need to provide:

  • A video file (required)
  • Video title (up to 100 characters)
  • Description (up to 5,000 characters)
  • Tags, category, and visibility settings

See the full YouTube platform guide for all available options.

Troubleshooting​

Wrong channel connected​

  • Disconnect the current channel from the Accounts page
  • Reconnect and select the correct channel during the authorization step

Brand Account not appearing​

  • Make sure you're signed into the Google account that manages the Brand Account
  • Check that you have owner or manager permissions on the Brand Account
  • Go to YouTube Studio and verify you can switch to the channel
