Why can't I publish to My Content Channel?

Before You Start

Ask yourself: Has this ever worked before?


No Access to My Content Channel

If you see an access error, like the one below, your email address may not have been added to the channel settings.

How to set up access to My Content Channel

  1. Go to the Valotalive Dashboard and open Apps

  2. Find the correct My Content Channel app and open it

  3. Go to the Configuration tab

  4. Add your email address in the required field

  5. Click Save

After saving, you can publish content using the Use button or via the invitation link sent from no-reply@valota.live.

My Content Channel uses a user-specific access link, not a password — unless you have separately added one via the Settings of the My Content Channel .


Access Link Has Expired

If My Content Channel was working before but you are now seeing an access error, try one of the following:

  • Go to Apps and click Use on the My Content Channel app

    The Use button for My Content Channel in the Apps tab at the right end of the App

    or

  • Open the app and go to the Actions tab, then click Use App

    The Use App button in the My Content Channel's Actions tab.

    or

  • Ask a colleague with access to send you a new invite link from the channel's Settings


File Is Not Uploading

My Content Channel supports files up to 330 MB. Upload failures can also be caused by a slow or unstable network connection.

  1. Check that your file is under 330 MB

  2. If it exceeds 330 MB, compress the file before uploading

  3. Make sure you have a stable network connection

  4. Try uploading again

If your file is within the size limit and your connection is stable but the file still isn't appearing on screen, contact support@valota.live.
