Eklipse supports one connected YouTube account at a time. To switch to a different YouTube channel, disconnect the current account first, then connect the new one from the Connected Account panel.

> Key Takeaways
> – Eklipse links to one YouTube account per Eklipse account, there is no multi-channel toggle inside a single login.
> – Disconnect from the Connected Account button in the top-left corner before authorizing a new channel.
> – Disconnecting does not delete past clips or exports, your library stays intact.
> – If you manage two creator brands, use a separate Eklipse account for each channel.

Why streamers run into this #

Marcus runs a Valorant grind channel on Twitch and a Just Chatting side channel on YouTube. He’d been auto-exporting Eklipse clips to his Valorant YouTube for months. When his side channel started getting traction, he tried to add it as a second destination, and hit a wall. Eklipse showed his Valorant channel locked in, with no obvious “add another” button.

This is the most common YouTube confusion in support tickets: creators assume Eklipse mirrors YouTube Studio’s multi-channel switcher. It doesn’t. Each Eklipse login holds one YouTube OAuth token. To send clips to a different channel, you swap the token, disconnect the old one, connect the new one. The whole switch takes under a minute. Below is the exact path inside the Eklipse dashboard, plus a workflow tip if you genuinely need to publish to two channels regularly.

The 3-step switch inside Eklipse #

1. Open the Eklipse web app and look at the top-left corner of the page. The Connected Account button shows every platform you’ve authorized, Twitch, Kick, YouTube, TikTok.
2. Click into YouTube and choose Disconnect. Your existing clips and exports are not deleted; you’re only revoking the OAuth permission that lets Eklipse publish on that channel’s behalf.
3. Click Connect YouTube, sign in with the Google account that owns the second channel, and select the correct channel in Google’s chooser screen. Eklipse will now treat that channel as your default YouTube destination.

If you have a Brand Account with multiple YouTube channels under it, Google’s chooser will list every channel you manage. Pick the one you want Eklipse to publish to, the chooser is where the actual channel selection happens, not inside Eklipse.

When you genuinely need two YouTube channels #

Priya streams Marvel Rivals on Twitch six nights a week. Her main YouTube channel (15k subs) gets the full-length VODs. Her Shorts-only channel (2.3k subs) gets the vertical clips Eklipse generates from each session. Two destinations, one streamer.

Her workaround: two Eklipse accounts on two different emails. Account A is connected to her main YouTube; Account B is connected to her Shorts channel. She processes the same Twitch VOD through both, Eklipse’s AI gaming stream highlights finds the moments once per account, and she publishes long-form to one and vertical clips to the other. The friction is real (two logins) but it’s the only way to push to two channels in parallel today.

If you only post to your second YouTube occasionally, skip the second account. Just disconnect, reconnect, publish, and disconnect again.

What disconnecting does, and what it doesn’t #

Disconnecting YouTube from Eklipse only revokes the publishing permission. It does not:

• Delete any clips already uploaded to YouTube (those live on YouTube’s servers, not Eklipse’s)
• Remove processed clips from your Eklipse library, your VOD imports, AI-detected highlights, and saved edits all stay
• Cancel your Eklipse subscription or change your plan
• Affect your Twitch, Kick, or TikTok connections

When you reconnect the same channel later, Eklipse re-authorizes through Google’s standard OAuth flow. You may need to re-grant permissions if Google has expired the previous grant.

Workflow summary #

1. Click Connected Account in the top-left of the Eklipse dashboard.
2. Disconnect the currently linked YouTube account.
3. Click Connect YouTube and sign in with the new account.
4. Pick the correct channel in Google’s channel chooser (especially if you manage a Brand Account).
5. Publish a test clip to confirm the new channel is receiving uploads.
6. To run two channels in parallel long-term, create a separate Eklipse account per channel.

Stop juggling logins, start clipping #

The one-channel-per-account model is a limit, but it’s a 60-second switch when you know where to click. Once your new YouTube is connected, Eklipse will route every auto-edited highlight, Studio export, and scheduled post from the Content Publisher to that channel.

If you haven’t tried Eklipse yet, the fastest way to see the YouTube pipeline end-to-end is to connect a VOD and let the AI find your best moments, then push the first clip live in under a minute. Create your free Eklipse account and connect YouTube →
