The Vidyard for YouTube integration allows you to push individual videos to a connected YouTube channel.
When you Push to YouTube, Vidyard will upload a copy of the video to your YouTube channel and link the two videos together.
Any updates made to the video attributes, thumbnail or captions in Vidyard will be copied to YouTube. You will also receive view counts in Vidyard for videos pushed to your YouTube channels.

- You may also use this opportunity to monitor the sync status of the video on different channels. Select the Options menu to access addition sync settings.
