YouTube API

YouTube is a popular video hosting service with a wide range of opportunities not only for entertainment, but also for business. Many brands, public figures and specialists of various activities conduct their channels here. Therefore, the content of the site is very diverse: medical clinics here talk about various diseases, teachers post lessons, bloggers come up with challenges, and IT specialists share technical innovations and shoot reviews. At the expense of advertisers, each of them can monetize their channel, but it is even better to get traffic and increase the number of customers and sales. After all, YouTube allows you to get a loyal audience, which means that the transitions will be targeted.

To conveniently use the platform's capabilities, you need to integrate it with the systems and services that you use in your work. For example, if you manage channels and groups on several social networks at once, users comment on your videos and write to you in private messages - it’s more convenient to respond from one interface, rather than switching between social networks, because it’s very important to do this as quickly as possible and not miss messages. Otherwise, the loyalty and interest of the audience is lost.

It is difficult to keep track of the statistics of each video and post if they are in different social networks - integration with analytics systems is required. And if your YouTube channel brings you leads, then it’s best to immediately upload them directly to CRM in order to further conveniently work with potential customers: follow the sales funnel or set up an advertising campaign, mailing list, etc. YouTube has very wide opportunities for integration , open API: https://developers.google.com/youtube/ . But how do you set them up?

How to integrate YouTube with other applications and systems?

Integration is possible for any developer who knows how to work with different types of API requests. If there is no such specialist in the staff of your company, you will have to hire a programmer from the outside: on freelance or outsourcing. Then the game of roulette begins: there will be a qualified worker or a beginner will come across. But in any case, you will have to allocate a budget and time for its services. While the integration is being carried out, more than one lead may pass by your business.

To avoid this, use the simple and convenient ApiX-Drive online connector, any of your employees can set up integration with it in 5 minutes. Knowledge in programming and API requests is not required. Here all the integrations have already been completed. All you need to do is log in to your accounts and tell the connector what data to upload. This process is detailed in the step-by-step instructions with screenshots that accompany each system. And there are also video instructions, from which it is also clear what and how to do.

The site has a very simple interface. You can set up a trial integration for free. At the end, you can immediately test the connection and send test data from system to system to check how everything works. And another bonus is automatic data updating. You set up the integration once and then all the time you receive data from YouTube to the system you need, so not a single comment or lead will be left without attention.
