Replace audio episodes with video episodes
Use Spotify for Creators to replace your show's audio episodes on Spotify with video episodes.
Note: You cannot use this option for uploading video episodes if you’ve uploaded video episodes through your podcast host via Spotify’s Distribution API.
On web:
- Log in to Spotify for Creators
- If you have multiple shows, find the one you’re looking for in the sidebar and select Episodes.
- Click the three dots next to an episode, then Upload video.
- Choose the video file from your device.
- Once your file has fully uploaded, you can preview your episode. Then click Publish when you're ready.
Video episodes uploaded through Spotify for Creators are only available to your fans on the Spotify apps and web player.
If you offer subscriber-only episodes through one of our partner platforms, the video will remain available to subscribers only.
