After you have uploaded the video, you should paste its link using the write bar. Press &#8220;Paste&#8221; and select the YouTube link to paste. Once pasted, you can place the link anywhere in your story. And then, you can publish it. It is that easy! And, now you can easily share YouTube videos on your Instagram story!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Uploading_a_YouTube_video_to_Instagram\"><\/span>Uploading a YouTube video to Instagram<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To upload a YouTube video to your Instagram story, you must first download it from YouTube and then edit it to meet Instagram&#8217;s specifications. Once the video is ready to upload, launch the Instagram app and select the &#8220;+&#8221; icon. To upload a YouTube video to your Instagram story, follow these steps:<\/p>\n<p>The easiest way to upload a YouTube video to your Instagram story is to share a link to the video. In addition to sharing the video&#8217;s URL, you can also add a caption to the story. Once your followers click the link, they are redirected to the video on YouTube. This process is quick and easy, and requires only a few clicks on the URL. But it&#8217;s worth noting that you should have permission from the original poster of the video before uploading.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_a_YouTube_video_to_an_Instagram_story\"><\/span>Adding a YouTube video to an Instagram story<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re wondering how to add a YouTube video to your Instagram story, you&#8217;ve come to the right place. To add a YouTube video to your Instagram story, just copy the URL and paste it into your story. Now, you can choose a &#8220;Link&#8221; sticker to replace the swipe-up link. It&#8217;s as easy as pie! But be careful, since these tools violate YouTube&#8217;s policies.<\/p>\n<p>Before you do that, you need to make sure that the video you want to share is supported by Instagram. It is possible to upload videos from other sites, such as YouTube, to Instagram. Just make sure that the video is short and fits the requirements. If you have an account on YouTube, you can upload your video from your computer to Instagram. After you have finished uploading the video, make sure to save it in a location where Instagram can access it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_a_free_repost_service\"><\/span>Using a free repost service<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are two methods to repost your YouTube videos on Instagram. The first method is to use a paid repost service. This will give you the link for your videos in your Instagram story. The second method is to use a free repost service. Both methods are effective, but they have different advantages and disadvantages. The first method is more effective. Using a free repost service allows you to post your video as many times as you want without worrying about being blocked or banned from the Instagram community.<\/p>\n<p>The second method is to use a free repost service. This method is more efficient than manual reposting. The downside to this method is that you have to spend your precious time uploading your videos to your Instagram account. The free repost service offers you the ability to schedule posts, write aesthetically attractive captions, use top hashtags, and adjust the length of your videos.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Converting_a_YouTube_video_to_a_link\"><\/span>Converting a YouTube video to a link<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re trying to include a YouTube video in your story, you need to do it correctly. It&#8217;s important to note that copyright laws prevent people from using content they found on other websites, so you need to make sure you&#8217;re getting the proper permission from the video&#8217;s owner. Luckily, there are many ways to do this without compromising on quality. If you&#8217;re not sure how to do this, check out this guide to help you out.<\/p>\n<p>First, make sure you&#8217;ve downloaded the Instagram app on your mobile device. From there, you need to tap on the &#8220;Library&#8221; or &#8220;Gallery&#8221; tab. Then, find the video you want to share. You can even use a web browser to upload it. Once you&#8217;ve done this, simply tap on the &#8220;Instagram&#8221; button to post it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_an_app_to_download_a_YouTube_video\"><\/span>Using an app to download a YouTube video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Uploading a YouTube video to your Instagram story is easy. Once you&#8217;ve downloaded it onto your smartphone, all you need to do is share it. The app will help you crop the video and download only a certain portion. Another stellar app to download YouTube videos is Folx. This torrent downloader is 20 times faster than the competition. The app will allow you to upload the video to your story and you can use it on your desktop as well.<\/p>\n<p>To use this method, you&#8217;ll need to have an account with Dropbox. Both iOS and Android users can download the app. Open the app and sign in using your linked account. Then, copy the download link and paste it into the app&#8217;s clipboard. Once you&#8217;ve pasted it into your clipboard, tap &#8220;Add&#8221; to add the video. The video will now be saved to your phone&#8217;s camera roll or Gallery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Add a YouTube Link in Your Instagram Story If you want to embed YouTube videos in your Instagram story, you must first upload it.
