Publish short-form videos to Snapchat Spotlights using Repurpose.io.


Snapchat Spotlight is only available for users who have a Public profile, under an organization. If you don't have it, click here to create yours now.




Here's an overview of what's possible and how to set it up



Add a Snapchat Connection

  1. Visit the Connections page inside your Repurpose account.
  2. Click the Add New Connection button on the top right
  3. Choose Snapchat
  4. Log in with your Snapchat credentials in the popup.





Repurpose your content from ALL your social platforms to Snapchat Spotlight

Automatically publish all your videos and audios (past and future) to Snapchat as Spotlights.



  1. Create a workflow using any of your Source connections (YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Audio Podcast, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc)
  2. Set the Action as Upload Video -> Full Video or Snippets (Clips)
  3. Choose Snapchat as the Destination select the Public Profile you want to publish to and choose type Spotlight



Known limitations imposed by Snapchat

  • Vertical videos only up to 60 seconds
  • Letterboxing is not supported


Letterboxing means that at least 70% of the vertical video must be actual video (not graphics, background or text).

Videos that use letter boxing will publish but give a warning inside Repurpose. These will be visible by you, but will NOT be visible by your followers.







Troubleshooting


  • If you can't use your Snapchat connection after adding it or for whatever reason is not the account you want to use, we recommend doing the following:


  1. Open a new incognito browser
  2. Log in to Snapchat first
  3. Then, log in to Repurpose
  4. Delete the current Snapchat connection and re-add it
