Connecting your channel lets contentgrove sync your videos and pull their performance metrics. The connection is read-only.
Connect your channel
Start the connection
On your dashboard, click Connect YouTube. Sign in with Google
Sign in with the Google account that owns your channel.
Grant access
Approve access to your YouTube analytics. Let your videos sync
Your videos and their metadata import automatically and appear in contentgrove.
What contentgrove can and can’t do
contentgrove only reads from your channel. It never posts, deletes, or edits your content on its own. The one exception is optional: when you generate a tracking link, you can choose to have contentgrove add or update that link in the video’s description.
A note on data freshness
YouTube’s own reporting pipeline can delay metrics by up to 72 hours. Numbers for the most recent few days, such as views, watch time, and subscribers, may be incomplete at first and rise later as YouTube finalizes them.
Refresh your data
contentgrove syncs automatically, but you can pull the latest titles, thumbnails, and descriptions on demand using Refresh video descriptions in the Create links tab. Use it after you upload new videos or edit descriptions directly on YouTube.
If your channel isn’t showing the right videos, see My video isn’t showing up.
