The features described in this article are available only to partners who use YouTube's Content ID matching system.

Labels help you organize your assets into custom categories. You can search for assets based on their labels, update all assets with a particular label, create campaigns for labeled assets, view performance reports or analytics, or simply use labels to organize your asset library.

Follow the steps below to use asset labels in the user interface. You can also manage labels using the Content and Rights Administration XML feed or the YouTube Content ID API. For tips on how to best utilize your asset labels, visit our Asset labels best practices page.

Create a label

You can apply up to 30 labels to an asset (up to a total of 5000 labels per content owner).

  1. Go to the Assets list page for your YouTube content owner.
  2. Select one or more assets to apply the new label to, by clicking the check box next to the assets.
  3. Click the Labels drop-down. You'll see a list of the labels you've created.
  4. Enter the text of the new label in the search box at the top of the list.
    • The label needs to have at least two characters and no more than 30 characters.
    • The label text can include spaces; prohibited characters are angled brackets, commas, colons, ampersands, and the vertical pipe character (|).
  5. Underneath the search box, click "your label name" (create new).
