Paste any public YouTube video URL and pick one of two modes:
- Import video — saves the video itself as a video testimonial, with the channel name, thumbnail, and embedded player.
- Import comments — fetches the top comments on that video as text testimonials (up to 500, ordered by relevance).
How to import from YouTube
- Go to Dashboard → Import → Reviews & Other.
- Click the YouTube tile.
- Toggle between Import video and Import comments at the top of the modal.
- Paste the YouTube URL —
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abc123,https://youtu.be/abc123, orhttps://youtube.com/embed/abc123. - Click Import.
Import video — what you get
The video-import mode uses YouTube's public oEmbed endpoint (no API key needed):
- Video title → testimonial title
- Channel name → customer name
- Channel avatar
- Thumbnail
- Embedded YouTube player (plays inline on your Wall of Love)
Import comments — what you get
Up to 500 top comments fetched via the YouTube Data API, ordered by relevance:
- Comment text → testimonial body
- Comment author display name and avatar
- Comment date
Comments don't carry star ratings, so imported testimonials are text-only. If comments are disabled on the video, nothing imports.
API key
Comments mode uses a YouTube Data API key managed server-side — you don't need to provide one. Video mode uses oEmbed and needs no key at all.
Supported URL formats
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=<id>https://youtu.be/<id>https://youtube.com/embed/<id>https://youtube.com/shorts/<id>(video mode)
Private or age-restricted videos
Only public videos work. Private or age-gated videos can't be fetched via oEmbed or the Data API.
