I’m trying to post a video of my vacation rental.  Airbnb says if I post videos it will help me to get into categories.

Airbnb says to go to your properties description and post the link. I did that but Airbnb says “ links and info can’t be shared, please remove”

so now what?

Hi @Tere3281 

At the moment, Airbnb doesn’t allow hosts to upload videos directly to a listing gallery only photos are supported. That means your main listing visuals need to rely heavily on high-quality photos.

However, once a reservation is confirmed, you can send videos to your guest through the Airbnb app message thread. This is especially useful for practical walkthroughs, like showing how to use a smart lock, locate the property, operate appliances, or explain house features that are easier to demonstrate than describe.

Hi @Tere3281 , as Patricia suggested above, it is not currently possible to upload videos directly to the photo tour. However, you can send video via messages. I am sharing the link to this article that might help with more information on : 👉sending photos and videos in a message 👈 

Please feel free to let me know if you need more assistance with this!

Thanks so much
