How to publish new videos with your AI agent

Connect Dailymotion to your agent once. From then on, you just tell your AI which file to upload and where it goes.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

How can I use my AI to upload videos to Dailymotion?

Your AI uses specific tools to request an upload destination and then pushes the video to your channel. This removes the need to manually navigate the Dailymotion dashboard for every upload. You get a direct path from your local files or cloud storage to your live channel.

The outcome

Where your uploads land

What happens after you give the command.

READY

Upload URL generated

The AI uses the first tool to get a destination for your file. You'll have a valid endpoint ready for the data transfer.

ACTIVE

Video is live

Once the transfer finishes, the AI triggers the final publishing step. Your video appears on your Dailymotion channel.

PENDING

Human review needed

The AI won't touch your channel settings or metadata unless you explicitly tell it to. You remain in control of the final channel look.

SYNCED

Workflow completed

The connection between your agent and Dailymotion stays active. You can repeat this process for entire batches of content.

The workflow

What your AI does when the video arrives.

The agent handles the heavy lifting of the Dailymotion API handshake.

  1. Request destination

    The agent asks Dailymotion for a specific place to send the video data.

    get_upload_url

  2. Transfer file

    The agent handles the actual movement of the video file to the provided URL.

    get_upload_url

  3. Finalize upload

    The agent tells Dailymotion that the file is ready to be processed and made public.

    publish_video

  4. Confirm status

    The agent verifies the video is successfully published to your channel.

    publish_video

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI delete videos from my channel?

    No. There is no tool provided to delete content, so the AI cannot remove anything from Dailymotion.

  • 02

    Does the AI set my video privacy settings?

    No. The AI only performs the upload and publish actions. You must manage privacy and visibility settings within Dailymotion.

  • 03

    Can I upload multiple videos at once?

    Yes. You can instruct your agent to loop through a list of files in a folder and run the upload process for each.

  • 04

    Will the AI change my channel name?

    No. The tools are limited to getting upload URLs and publishing videos. They cannot modify channel profile information.

  • 05

    Do I need to stay in the chat during the upload?

    The agent performs the actions as you request them. Once the command is sent, the agent handles the tool calls.
