Where can I see the views for videos published to YouTube?
The viewing analytics of videos published to YouTube are displayed in your YouTube Account. Lightcast merely passes on the video files, images, and metadata to YouTube, but YouTube is the CDN for the delivery, using its own players within its websites and apps, thus the entity which collects and stores the viewing stats.
Not being in control over the CDN delivery for the YouTube websites and apps, Lightcast.com does not have the viewing stats for your viewers on YouTube, nor does YouTube share this data with Lightcast.
Please retrieve viewing numbers from the YouTube website, or log into your YouTube Account in order to retrieve further analytics YouTube might provide.
