# About the YouTube connector

> Integration Service connector for YouTube in Automation Cloud, providing activities to interact with the YouTube video sharing platform.

YouTube is a video sharing website that makes it easy for you to watch videos online and even upload your own videos to share with others.

:::note
This connector is built by UiPath and receives official support selectively. The connector supports a limited set of commonly used APIs for the target application and may cover most typical use cases. Also, they are retained in a stable state until the requirements for a new version release are met.
