YouTube and Google Permissions
Ai social poster is a preview/beta, safety-gated product. This page explains intended Google OAuth and YouTube permission use for reviewers and customers. Ai social poster is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Google or YouTube.
What Ai social poster does
Ai social poster helps customers prepare YouTube Shorts or video metadata drafts, review titles and descriptions, and manage approval workflows for customer-owned channels. Current YouTube/Google workflows are preview-first and do not enable live publishing without completed provider review, customer consent and internal safety gates.
Why permissions are requested
- Confirm the customer-owned Google account or YouTube channel selected for a preview workflow.
- Prepare video title, description, media and publish payload previews for customer review.
- Show channel connection and authorization status inside the customer workspace.
- Support disconnect, audit and data deletion workflows for connected channels.
What data may be accessed
- Basic Google or YouTube channel metadata needed to display destinations.
- Customer-submitted video metadata, media references and preview payload information.
- Authorization, connection and audit metadata needed to protect the workspace and support review.
What data is not accessed
- Ai social poster does not ask for Google or YouTube passwords.
- Ai social poster does not access Gmail, Drive, Calendar or unrelated Google data for this workflow.
- Ai social poster does not sell Google or YouTube account data.
- Ai social poster does not publish videos without customer approval and enabled safety gates.
How users connect accounts
Customers choose YouTube/Google in Ai social poster, review the provider consent screen and connect only Google accounts or YouTube channels they own or are authorized to manage. In the current preview state, live OAuth activation remains blocked until owner-approved provider review work is complete.
How users disconnect accounts
Customers can remove YouTube destinations from their workspace when disconnect controls are enabled. They can also revoke app access from their Google account settings. Disconnecting prevents new YouTube preview or publishing workflows for that channel.
Publishing approval and safety gates
Live publishing remains blocked in this preview documentation state. Future YouTube publishing requires provider review completion, customer-selected channel and content, customer approval or explicitly configured automation rules, policy checks and internal safety flags that block provider calls when review or consent is missing.
