Connect YouTube to Relato so your AI Content Agents can publish titles, descriptions, and chapters for a video project, from inside Relato.
What you can do
Once YouTube is connected, an agent can:
Write and publish a video title and description from a project.
Build chapter timestamps to place in the description.
Keep your titles and descriptions consistent across videos.
Connect YouTube
In Relato open Settings > Integrations > MCP > Add account, paste the YouTube MCP URL, approve the OAuth prompt, and name the account. The name you give it prefixes that service's tools in the agent tool picker. Then attach the YouTube tools plus the Relato query and project tools to an agent, and set a trigger: a project stage change, a schedule, or manual. For the full walkthrough see Connect any MCP to Relato.
A good first agent
Create an agent called YouTube metadata writer. Attach the YouTube tools plus the Relato query and project tools. Set its instructions to: read the video project when it is approved, write three title options, write a description with a short summary and links, and build chapter timestamps from the outline in the project. Set the trigger to manual so you pick the title before the metadata is published.
A note on OAuth
Relato's MCP integration is OAuth based. You can connect YouTube if it runs an OAuth capable MCP server that Relato can reach. If a public OAuth MCP for YouTube does not exist yet, tell us at [email protected] and we will help you find a path.
FAQ
Can the agent upload the video file too? That depends on the tools the YouTube MCP exposes. Metadata such as titles, descriptions, and chapters is the common case. Uploading depends on the MCP.
Can I review the title before it goes live? Yes. Use a manual trigger so the agent drafts the options and you choose before anything is published.
