How to upload videos to Twitch
1. Navigate to the Twitch homepage and sign in, and then click your profile icon in the top right corner.
2. From the drop-down menu, select "Video Producer." You'll be redirected to your creator dashboard, where your video uploading hub is located.
3. Click the upload button and select what video on your computer you'd like to upload — if you don't see the uploading icon, you don't have the ability to upload videos. You can also drag and drop the desired video to your "Videos" section.
4. While your video uploads, you can edit its information as you'd like, including its title, description, category, language and tags. Click "Save Changes."
When your upload is complete, the video will appear in your video creator dashboard. You can choose to premiere the video right away, or schedule its debut for a future time and date.
