One video, every account
Schedule a Short to several YouTube channels, Instagram and TikTok accounts in one step — or a long video to all your YouTube channels — with a separate status for each.
How multi-account posting works
In the Bulk Scheduler Smart Scheduler you choose a format first. Shorts— anything under two minutes — can go to YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels and TikTok at the same time; long videos go to YouTube only. Then you tick every account the batch should reach: one channel or five, across platforms or within one. Each video is scheduled to every ticked account at the same slot, each copy is its own post with its own status, and a By video view shows all the copies of one video side by side. It works for a one-off batch and for a campaign that keeps following a Library folder.
The rules it follows
Shorts — under 2 minutes
YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels and TikTok, on as many connected accounts of each as your plan allows.
Long videos — over 2 minutes
YouTube only, to one channel or several. Instagram and TikTok are left out of a long-video batch rather than receiving a file they would trim or refuse.
One status per copy
Each account gets its own post. If the TikTok copy fails, the YouTube and Instagram copies still publish, and the failure is shown against that one account.
The file waits for the last copy
Published videos normally leave the Library. With several copies, the file stays until every one of them is out — including a failed one you may want to retry.
How many accounts each plan covers
Starter publishes to one YouTube channel and one Instagram account, so a Short can go to both at once. Growth adds TikTok and connects up to three accounts per platform — nine destinations for one Short. Pro has no account limit. LinkedIn is not part of bulk video posting; it has its own composer. The full list is onplatforms, and if you want the videos made for you as well, Content Studiogenerates a new one every day and posts it to the same accounts.
Questions about posting to several accounts
Can I post one video to multiple YouTube channels at once?
Yes. In the Bulk Scheduler Smart Scheduler you choose Shorts or Long video, tick every account the batch should go to - two YouTube channels, three, or as many as your plan connects - and schedule once. Each ticked channel gets its own copy of every video at the same time slot, with its own post status, so you can see that the batch went out on one channel and failed on another instead of guessing. The same works for a standing campaign that follows a Library folder: every new video dropped into the folder is scheduled to all of the campaign's accounts. Long videos go to YouTube only; Shorts can go to YouTube, Instagram and TikTok together. Each channel still uses its own AI context for titles and descriptions, so two channels on different topics do not get identical copy. Growth connects three accounts per platform and Pro has no limit.
How do I cross-post the same Short to YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels and TikTok?
Pick Shorts as the format, tick the YouTube, Instagram and TikTok accounts you want, choose the videos or a Library folder, and set the time slots. Every Short is scheduled to all of them at once and published through each platform's official API - the YouTube Data API, the Instagram Graph API and the TikTok Content Posting API - from our servers, so your device can be off. Videos longer than two minutes are left out of a Shorts batch and the screen says how many, because Instagram and TikTok treat long uploads differently and a file that would be refused hours later is worse than one held back now. TikTok needs one choice from you before anything is scheduled - who can see the video - and that one choice applies to every TikTok account in the batch, limited to the audiences all of them allow. TikTok is not available to accounts in India.
Is it a problem to post the identical video to several accounts?
Not as a matter of platform rules. YouTube, Instagram and TikTok do not penalise a video for also existing on another platform, and scheduling through the official APIs is the same publishing path as uploading by hand. Where caution is worth having is with several accounts on the SAME platform: YouTube's policies act on reused, repetitive or misleading content, and two channels posting the same file at the same moment to overlapping audiences is the pattern those policies describe. The practical answer is to give each channel a reason to exist - different context so the titles and descriptions differ, a different time slot, or a different video for each - rather than mirroring one channel onto another. Bulk Scheduler writes copy from each account's own context and lets you set different times per account, which is what makes posting one video to related channels reasonable rather than spammy.
