How to upload Twitch streams to YouTube

In one of our last articles, we talked about ways to monetize Twitch. Ripping your Twitch videos to YouTube is an additional way to monetize your content and reach new audiences. In this guide you will find how to upload Twitch streams right to YouTube.

No need to download special programs or browser extensions. Twitch's team took care of the users and built in a function to transfer videos. Below you will find the detailed steps.

Note that you can export only Highlights videos. These are compilations of the best moments of your streams. You can create such videos manually in the Video Producer. Viewers who have not seen your broadcast will be able to quickly watch a shortcut version. This engages existing fans and attracts new followers when you are offline.

15 minutes videos are the most popular on YouTube as people don't like to watch long films.

No one bothers you to highlight your entire broadcast. However, it is best to keep only the most exciting moments. 

1. First of all,  you would need to link your YouTube and Twitch accounts.

Go to the Twitch settings and click on the tab Connections.

You will find YouTube here. Connect your YT account to Twitch.

2. Click on your profile image in the upper right corner of the screen and choose the Video Producer tab.

3. Choose a video that you would like to export. Then click on the 3 dots and choose Export.

That’s all! In a few minutes your video gets in YouTube Studio. There you can edit the title, description, make it public etc. Check out YouTube promotion tips.
