## How videos syncing works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Finding videos on your platforms" icon="arrows-rotate" iconType="light">
    After connecting a videos platform, we'll import all of your videos from it. After that, we'll sync with it nightly
    to add new videos and remove any you've deleted.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Adding videos to your website" icon="films" iconType="light">
    When a new video is found on a platform, we'll try to match it to an existing video on your site by ISRC, length,
    and name. If we can't, we'll create a new video.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Setting details on your videos" icon="list-check" iconType="light">
    Each platform provides different details about your video, so when a platform knows something about your video that
    we don't, we'll apply it first-come-first-serve.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Reviewing your videos

Sometimes the details we get from a platform may be a little off, or may be wrong entirely. So it's always a good idea to review your videos to make sure everything looks good.

* **Image** - The video's image. Should be high resolution.
* **Name** - The video's title. Keep it formatted exactly as it appears on platforms.
* **URL slug** - The unique part of the video's URL. ex: `/videos/your-video`
* **Type** - The type of video it is (Music Video, Performance, etc.).
* **Duration** - The length of the video's runtime.
* **Release date** - The date the video was released.
* **ISRC** - The [International Standard Recording Code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Standard_Recording_Code) for the video. Important for matching.
* **Info** - The video's description, credits, or any other information you'd like to share.
* **Platforms** - The [Platforms](/docs/platforms) where fans can purchase the video.

<Tip>If something we synced is wrong, it's likely wrong on the platform as well. Be sure to fix both.</Tip>
