# How to schedule YouTube Shorts

> Schedule YouTube Shorts in Repping.AI: add the vertical clip, turn on the Shorts flag, set the metadata and a time, and let YouTube classify it.

To schedule a YouTube Short, add the vertical clip, turn on the Shorts flag, add the title and description, and pick a time. Repping.AI adds #Shorts to the description and uploads the clip at that time. YouTube decides whether a video counts as a Short, so verify the result in YouTube Studio.

## How to schedule YouTube Shorts

1. Connect your YouTube channel to Repping.AI.
2. Add a vertical clip that meets YouTube's current Shorts rules.
3. Turn on the Shorts flag, then add the title and description.
4. Pick the date and time for the upload.
5. Schedule the upload, then check classification and visibility in YouTube Studio.

## Tips

### Read YouTube's current Shorts rules

Length and format rules for Shorts change. Check YouTube Help before you export, instead of relying on a number from an old guide.

### Check classification in Studio

Open the video in YouTube Studio after it publishes and confirm that it appears as a Short.

### Batch in one sitting, verify the first one

Queue several clips together, but confirm the first upload behaves as expected before you trust the rest of the batch.
