YouTube Studio beta analytics basics

30/11/2019

You can monitor the performance of your channel and videos with up-to-date metrics and reports in YouTube Analytics. 

This article is about analytics basics in YouTube Studio beta. You can find out about YouTube Analytics basics in Creator Studio Classic in this article.  

Get to YouTube Analytics

  1. Sign in to YouTube Studio beta. If you haven't tried the beta, learn more.
  2. In the left menu, click Analytics.

In the analytics section, you’ll see different tabs. Apart from the overview tab, each tab is curated to help you see data that’s most relevant to your goals. 

Note: You may see different metrics in YouTube Analytics based on the platform - Classic desktop, YouTube Studio desktop, or the YouTube Studio app. This is because up-to-date metrics are available faster in Analytics on YouTube Studio (both on desktop and on the app) than on Creator Studio classic.
