YouTube Content ID – Allowlist Request for My Own Channel

Ask a Question YouTube (CID, OAC)

Hello iMusician Team,

I would like to add my own YouTube channel to the YouTube Content ID Allowlist.

YouTube channel:
youtube.com/@Geeky_Mind

Artist name: Le Trung Hieu
Track title: Cat Jelly
Barcode: EAN 4071624254236

  1. Could you please add my channel to the Allowlist for my Content ID releases?

  2. Also, does the allowlisting take effect immediately, or is there a processing time before it becomes effective?

Thank you for your help!

Hello @Hieu

Usually it takes some weeks for the allowlist request is done by YouTube.

I tag the iMusician support @Carlos to inform you about your Allowlist request

Hi @Carlos ,

Could you please let me know if my allowlist request has been approved by YouTube yet?

Also, will I receive a notification once it has been approved, or should I keep checking this thread for updates?

Thank you for your help!

Hello iMusician Support,

I uploaded a video to my YouTube channel and noticed a copyright claim from iMusician. It has been two weeks since I submitted my channel for whitelisting, but my channel still hasn’t been whitelisted.

Additionally, the copyright claim lists iMusician Digital AG as the claimant, rather than indicating that iMusician Digital AG is claiming the content on my behalf.

Could you please explain why this is happening and check the status of my channel whitelisting?

Thank you so much for your support!

YouTube rejected the allowlisting of your channel.

I’m sorry but we won’t be able to allowlist your channel and you will keep receiveing claims from us as we hold the monetization rights on your content (on your behalf).

I don’t understand why it took over two weeks to inform me that my channel could not be added to the Allowlist. This delay has already affected my YouTube release schedule, and I would have appreciated knowing this much earlier.

Given this situation, I would like to have Content ID (CID) removed from my releases. Could you please let me know how we can proceed with this request?

It’s explained here under " Deactivating Content ID": How can I remove my release from the shops? | iMusician

Hello @Carlos ,
I’ve already confirmed the Content ID removal request via email. Could you please help me speed up the process instead of making me wait 2–4 weeks? I’d really appreciate it if you could make an exception and help me get this sorted out as soon as possible.
Please, I’d be very grateful for your help. Thank you so much!

The processing time cannot be shortened. Thanks for your patience.

Also, I have one more question:

What happens to videos that have already received copyright claims after Content ID is removed?

And who will receive the revenue generated before the removal is completed?

Thank you!

The claims related to those videos will be cleared since it won’t be monetized any longer.

You will since we collect this revenue on your behalf.

Best,
