How to Upload Shorts on YouTube Studio

Updated on:
May 13, 2026
By:
Madhav Bhandari
Use this interactive demo to learn how to publish a Short video directly from YouTube Studio.

Quick summary

Uploading a YouTube Short via YouTube Studio is a straightforward process that takes you from selecting a file to setting visibility in just a few steps. YouTube Studio automatically detects Shorts format based on the video's default configurations, making it easy to publish short-form content to your channel.


Steps

  1. Go to the top-right corner of YouTube Studio, then click 'Upload Videos'.
  2. Click 'Select Files' and choose the specific video you want to upload — YouTube Studio automatically identifies it as a Short based on its default configurations.
  3. Under the Details tab, provide the required information: Title, Description, Thumbnail, Playlist, and Audience Restrictions, and configure any advanced settings as needed.
  4. Once done, click 'Next' to proceed.
  5. Add any additional video elements if necessary, such as related videos and subtitles.
  6. Click 'Next' to continue.
  7. Review any detected issues, fix them accordingly, then click 'Next'.
  8. Configure the Visibility settings for your Short.
  9. Click 'Save' to apply all changes.
  10. After completing these steps, your Shorts video will be uploaded and published immediately.

📌 Why this matters

Uploading YouTube Shorts through YouTube Studio gives creators full control over their short-form video content, from metadata and thumbnails to visibility and audience settings. YouTube Shorts are a high-priority surface for channel growth, making it essential for creators to understand the correct upload workflow. YouTube Studio automatically identifies Shorts based on video format, streamlining the publishing process without requiring manual categorization. Mastering this workflow helps creators publish consistently, optimize discoverability, and grow their audience faster on YouTube.
