If you have a YouTube channel dedicated to a collaborative project, or if you need someone to help you upload new content to your channel, there is an option that can make this easier.
It's a script that you can run from Google Drive, so that anyone who has access to it can upload new material to your channel without having to grant administrative privileges to your account to another person, expanding this capacity so that the content is shared even without owning your account or channel.
It should be noted that there is an official mechanism for sharing YouTube channel management between several people, which allows the channel to be managed jointly.
But if the solution provided by YouTube does not meet your needs, either because your channel does not belong to a brand account, or because you do not want to give a third party control over your channel, or even because the collaborators do not have a Google account, we will provide you with this solution that may be what you need.
You can create a copy of this tool to configure it with your YouTube channel in three easy steps:
First, you need to make a script of this tool on Google Drive. You can get the original file from this link:
Then, after opening your copy of this file, you should click on the "Publish" menu and choose the "Apply as a web application" option.
Finally, after updating and executing the command line, an authorization window will appear on the screen, where you must grant the necessary permissions for this tool to connect to your channel. Also, permission to send emails is necessary, because this script notifies you this way when uploading a video.
After completing this process, you will have a URL that you can share with your trusted contacts, who will post content to your channel through this form.
The only fields to fill in are the video title, description, category, and privacy settings. After choosing a file to upload, just click the "Upload" button to start the process.
