Can I link YouTube Shorts to long-form videos?

Currently, you cannot link YouTube Shorts to long-form videos through Post Bridge due to YouTube API limitations.

Why this feature isn't available

YouTube's API does not provide the functionality to create links between Shorts and long-form videos. This means third-party platforms like Post Bridge cannot offer this feature.

What you can do instead

While direct linking isn't possible, you can:

Mention your long-form videos in your Shorts descriptions
Use consistent hashtags across both content types
Include calls-to-action in your Shorts directing viewers to your channel

Future availability

We'll monitor YouTube's API updates and add this feature if it becomes available in the future.
