YouTube alerts in chat
Post new uploads from YouTube channels in your community chat on the website and in the app.
On this page
YouTube alerts post a card in your community chat when a YouTube channel uploads a video, the same way the Discord bot's YouTube alerts do in Discord. They use the same YouTube feed, so a video shows up within about 10 to 20 minutes of going live.
Adding a channel#
- Find the channel ID. It starts with
UC. On the channel's YouTube page open About (or "more"), then Share channel › Copy channel ID. An address likeyoutube.com/channel/UC...works too;@handlesdon't. - Pick the chat channel to post in.
- Write the message, or leave it empty for the standard one.
{author}is the YouTube channel's name,{title}the video's title and{url}its link.
Only videos uploaded after you add a channel are posted.
How many channels#
Your community's tier sets how many YouTube channels you can follow, the same number as for the Discord bot's YouTube alerts. Supporter tiers allow more.
