This article will cover the below steps, feel free to skip ahead to the section that you are up to:

  1. Create a Youtube account

  2. Create a Youtube channel

  3. Upload your video to Youtube

  4. Add the Youtube video link into Eagle Software

Step 1. Create a Youtube account

  1. Go to YouTube.

  4. Choose For myself or To manage my business.

Step 2. Create a Youtube channel

With a Google Account, you can watch and like videos and subscribe to channels. However, without a YouTube channel, you have no public presence on YouTube. Even if you have a Google Account, you need to create a YouTube channel to upload videos, comment, or make playlists. You can use a computer or the YouTube mobile site to create a new channel.

You can use a Brand Account to create a channel that has a different name but that's still managed from your Google Account. Learn more about Brand Accounts. 

  1. Sign in to YouTube on a computer or using the mobile site.

  2. Go to your channel list.

  3. Choose to create a new channel or use an existing Brand Account: Create a new channel by clicking Create a new channel. Create a YouTube channel for a Brand Account that you already manage by choosing the Brand Account from the list. If this Brand Account already has a channel, you can't create a new one—you'll just be switched over to that channel if you select the Brand Account from the list.
