Cursor and YouTube questions
Can Cursor post to YouTube?
Yes. Connect your YouTube account in dopost and follow the Cursor setup guide.
Can Cursor upload YouTube Shorts?
Yes. Ask for a Short and Cursor sets the video type to short. Use a vertical video so YouTube treats it as one.
Do I need a Google Cloud developer app or API key?
No. You connect YouTube once in dopost and Cursor uses that connection. There is no developer account, review or token to manage.
Can I check my YouTube results?
Yes. You can check the available metrics for your YouTube accounts and posts.
Can I review content before scheduling?
You can ask the agent to show you the content before scheduling it.
