SkyDrive is a program on the Xbox One that allows you to share the clips you've recorded using the Upload Studio. Temporarily, you will be using this function as a way to get your videos to social media sites. Starting next year, Microsoft will have a direct link to upload videos to YouTube and Facebook. In the meantime, however, let's become acquainted with SkyDrive.



Video: A look at Upload Studio and uploading to SkyDrive.

Go into SkyDrive after you have installed it from under the Apps section of Xbox Live's Store. Once you have selected your gaming clip that you've worked so hard to create. View your clip either on your Xbox One or your PC[1] to make sure it's ready for your approval.


Hop on over onto your PC to the SkyDrive website (skydrive.live.com) to access your clips. Once you find the one you're looking for, which should be listed under Xbox Game DVR, click on the clip to begin watching it. To the right of the clip will be a list of options that you can use. Click on the "Sharing" dropbox, and then "Share" from there.


Your Sharing options will be presented to you. You may choose Get A Link and set the display to Public, which you can then blast out in a tweet on Twitter or a wall post on Facebook for all of your friends, fans, followers, and family to enjoy.


If you're looking to upload to YouTube, you will need to directly download the clip onto your PC's hard drive. To do so, click on the "Download" icon at the top of the SkyDrive window, right beside the SkyDrive logo. This will download the movie to your computer, where you can then upload it to YouTube as you would any other video.
