Do I need to keep Taisly open?

No. After the rule is created, repost monitoring runs in the background. Open Reposts or History when you want to inspect the rule or posting status.

Can I repost older Instagram videos?

No. The current automatic workflow is designed for newly published videos, not for migrating or scheduling an existing Instagram content library.

What happens if one of my accounts expires?

Reposts may pause or fail until the affected account is connected again. Platform authorization and publishing access must remain valid for the rule to work.

Keep Instagram as your publishing home base

This route is for creators who publish video on Instagram first and want a native YouTube post without repeating the transfer by hand.

One source account

The rule watches the Instagram account you select. It does not scan unrelated profiles or repost content from accounts you do not connect.

Instagram

A native YouTube post

Taisly sends the video through the connected YouTube publishing flow instead of sharing a Instagram link.

YouTube

Caption text moves with the video

When Instagram supplies a caption, Taisly passes that text into the destination posting flow with the video.

Reposted to YouTube

What this workflow does - and where it stops

Taisly handles distribution. It does not replace platform rules or turn one video into a newly edited version.

New videos, not a library migration

The automatic rule detects newly published source videos. It does not backfill an existing Instagram library.

Connected accounts are required

Both the Instagram source account and the YouTube destination account must remain connected and available to Taisly.

YouTube still applies its own rules

A video can be delayed or rejected when it does not meet YouTube requirements or the destination account cannot publish it.

Distribution is not editing

Taisly does not resize, cut, rewrite, or optimize the creative for YouTube as part of this repost rule.

Current repost detection considers source videos after they have been live for at least five minutes and while they remain within the three-hour eligibility window.

Taisly checks eligible newly published videos from the connected source account. A video must be detected inside the current eligibility window, and YouTube applies its own publishing requirements.
