Vypusk Desk

Vypusk Desk is a personal, non-commercial software tool. Its developer uses it on his own computer to upload his own finished short videos to his own YouTube channels.

What it does

When the developer runs it for one of his channels, Vypusk Desk uses the YouTube Data API to:

• upload a finished video with its title, description, tags, category and a scheduled publication time;
• set the video's thumbnail image;
• upload the video's subtitles (caption track);
• add the video to a playlist of the same channel, creating that playlist if it does not exist yet;
• post one comment under the uploaded video (the comment with sources and credits, pinned by hand later);
• read the channel's name, its playlists and its own recent uploads, to avoid duplicate uploads and to record each video's publication status.

It does not delete or edit existing videos, does not act on other people's channels, and does not collect anything from viewers.

Who can use it

Vypusk Desk is not a public service. There is no sign-up and no account on this website. Only the developer authorizes it, with the Google accounts that own his channels.

Privacy and terms

Vypusk Desk uses YouTube API Services. Before authorizing it, read the Privacy Policy and the Terms of Service; by authorizing Vypusk Desk you agree to both, and to the YouTube Terms of Service. Google's handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy.

Access can be withdrawn at any time with the tool's built-in revoke command or on the Google account permissions page: https://myaccount.google.com/permissions. How the stored data is then deleted is described in the Privacy Policy, section 8.
