 In this video, I will show you how to live stream your Zoom meeting to YouTube. I will also show you how to use the new YouTube setting to automatically start your live stream the moment your Zoom meeting starts streaming. Let's get started. Please note, Zoom live streaming is available only for the pro account and above. The first step is to schedule your live stream on YouTube. To do this, go to YouTube Studio by clicking on your profile icon and selecting YouTube Studio. Make sure that your account is enabled for live streaming. You can check your account by clicking on settings, select channel and choose the option feature eligibility. You need at least the intermediate features to be enabled to live stream on YouTube. In my case, this feature is enabled. If not, you need to enable it and all it requires is for you to verify your phone number. Once you verify your phone number, it usually takes around 24 hours for the account to be active for live streaming. Now that I know that this account can live stream, let's go ahead and schedule a live stream. Click on this option which says go live and you will be taken into the YouTube live control room. You can choose to go live right now or what we want to do is we want to schedule a live stream for a future date. So let me choose this option start. Alternatively, you can schedule your live stream by using this button on top here called schedule stream. Since we will be using Zoom to live streamer event, you need to choose this option streaming software. Click on go. Let's go ahead and schedule a stream. Click schedule stream. In the first page, you will describe your event itself. Give a title for your event and optionally give a description. You can choose an appropriate category. Let's choose education. Upload a custom thumbnail that will be shown as the preview for anybody who logs on to YouTube. Scroll down and choose your target audience. If your live stream is meant for kids, you can choose the first option or you can say it's not made for kids. If you choose the option that it is made for kids, some features will be disabled such as live chat. In my case, I will say no, it's not made for kids. Click next. Here we can control certain aspects of your live stream. For example, whether you want to enable live chat and who can post chat messages. If you leave it to anyone, then anybody who's watching the live stream will be able to post a chat message. But if you select subscribers only, then only your subscribers will be able to post chat messages. Click on the next button. In this section, you will choose who can watch your YouTube live stream. If you select public, then anybody who accesses YouTube can access your live stream. You can make it private, which means only certain people will be able to access your live stream or you can make it unlisted, in which case the link can be shared with only those people who you want to watch your live stream. In our case, let me make it public. Select the schedule for your live stream, the date and time. Let's choose 20 seconds and let's choose the time as 2pm and click done. A live stream is now set up. One feature that you might want to explore is this option called enable auto start with this feature on by clicking enable. Now what will happen is when your zoom meeting starts streaming, YouTube will automatically start your live stream. You can also enable auto stop. Click enable. Now what will happen is when you stop streaming from zoom, the YouTube automatically will stop streaming. We now need three bits of information from here to use in zoom.

It is currently hidden, but I can unhide it by clicking on this icon and then select copy. Let me paste it in my notepad. So that's the stream key.
