INVIDEO PROGRAMMING API
On October 1st, YouTube
launched the first ever newsletter
for creators, called the Creator

number of additional options,
including updating a message to
tease your latest tweet.
Creators can access this by

COMMUNICATIONS MANAGER
In an effort to help creators
manage their channels, YouTube
have announced a new
specialised ‘role’ - the
communications manager.
Page owners can now assign the
“communications manager” role to
people in charge of engaging
followers without giving full access
to the connected YouTube channel
or permission to edit their overall
Google+ page appearance - giving
creators more control over what
channel managers can access.
