Understanding YouTube Integration with Conduit

Introduction

Conduit allows you to integrate YouTube data into your analytics seamlessly. However, it's important to note some key aspects of this integration to ensure accurate data analysis.

Conduit's YouTube integration provides you with a report that includes a maximum of 200 rows (representing 200 videos) sorted by the number of views for that day. In essence, this report offers insights into the top 200 daily viewed videos on your YouTube channel. This information can be valuable for tracking video performance.

Data Delays and Timezone settings

YouTube analytics data, such as views, is based on Pacific Standard Time (PST). This data is updated once a day and may have a delay of up to 72 hours. Keep in mind that the numbers you see in Conduit's Analytics reports might differ from those you find on the video page, channel page, Video Manager, or other sources.

Connecting Your YouTube Account with Conduit:

To integrate your YouTube channel with Conduit, follow these steps:

Log in to your Conduit account.
Go to the "Connections" section.
Select "YouTube" from the list of available integrations.
Click on the "Connect" button next to the YouTube integration.
You'll be prompted to log in to your YouTube account. Enter your YouTube credentials.
Once logged in, grant Conduit access to your YouTube data.
