Reviewing Content

Review content submissions from creators with auto-fetched video metadata.

After creators receive keys and create content, they submit proof via a video URL. You review these submissions to verify creators fulfilled their obligations.

Opening the Content Review Panel

Click the video icon in the campaign action bar. The Content Review panel shows all content submissions for this campaign.

Content Proof Cards

Each submission is displayed as a content proof card showing:

  • Video thumbnail - Auto-fetched from the platform
  • Video title - The title of the submitted video
  • Platform - YouTube, TikTok, or Twitch
  • View count - Current number of views
  • Like count - Current likes/reactions
  • Comment count - Number of comments
  • Duration - Video length
  • Submission date - When the creator submitted

All this metadata is fetched automatically from the platform - creators just provide the URL.

Reviewing a Submission

For each submission, you can:

  • Approve - Confirm the content meets your campaign requirements. The distribution is marked as completed.
  • Reject - The content doesn't meet requirements. Reject opens a confirmation, and the creator is notified that the content was rejected so they can submit again.

A submission sent on time and waiting for your review is never marked as missed, however long the review takes. A late video is different: see Late Videos. Once the creator's content deadline has passed, the submission shows Deadline passed, and Reject asks for a new deadline, with a date already filled in. You cannot reject it without one, because the creator could not resubmit after a passed deadline. If the deadline passes while the reject dialog is open, the dialog asks for the date before you confirm.

A rejection before the deadline may also carry a new, later deadline: choose Add a new deadline in the reject dialog when the creator will need more time to fix the content. Either way, a new deadline set together with a rejection does not count toward the limit described under Give More Time, and the delivery is not recorded as late.

The reject dialog has no field for a note. To tell the creator what was missing or what to change, use Message creator on their row in Manage Keys, before or after you reject. Decisions on late videos are different: Ask for changes needs a note and Decline can carry one; the creator sees it on their key.

Reviewed submissions are listed under Reviewed on the campaign. Approvals of late videos show Accepted after the deadline, and approvals that followed more time show Approved after more time. Only your studio sees these markers. The same deliveries count as late in the creator's On time number on the applicant card and in the profile sheet. Rejecting close to the deadline without a new date can make the creator's delivery count as late once the deadline passes, so choose Add a new deadline in the reject dialog when you reject shortly before it.

Content Deadlines

Each campaign sets how many days a creator has to submit content after receiving a key, so every delivery gets an exact deadline. Open Manage Keys on the campaign to see each delivery's deadline with the date, the hour and your time zone.

A creator can submit until that moment. Once it has passed, the delivery shows an Overdue marker in Manage Keys and the creator can no longer submit on time. For 14 days after the deadline they can send a late video (see Late Videos). At the next daily check, at 08:00 UTC, an overdue delivery is marked as expired, which counts as a missed deadline in the creator's Campaign Completion Rate (CCR). Everyone in your team then gets a notification about it, and the account owner gets an email: one for each delivery, or one email listing them when more than three deliveries of one campaign are marked at the same check, unless these emails are turned off in KeyVault Settings. A missed deadline you record yourself, by revoking a key or declining a late video, sends your team no notification.

If you edit the campaign to give creators more days, every delivery still on time gets the later deadline. An overdue delivery keeps its deadline, and so does one whose deadline is less than a minute away: only Give more time moves a deadline that has passed.

To talk to the creator about a delivery, use Message creator on their row in Manage Keys. Creators can reach you the same way with Message the studio on their key.

Late Videos

A creator whose content deadline has passed can send a late video for 14 days after the deadline, unless you turned off Allow late videos for the campaign. Late videos appear at the top of the Content Review panel under Late videos, with the deadline, when the video was sent, how late it was, and the date you have to decide by. Until you accept it, the delivery counts as a missed deadline. You have 14 days from when the video was sent, with reminders after 3 and 10 days. The account owner also gets an email when a late video arrives and with the reminder after 10 days, for the oldest late video waiting in the campaign, unless these emails are turned off in KeyVault Settings. Without a decision the late video is closed and the miss stays. A late video whose 14 days to decide are over stays listed until the daily check closes it, but it is no longer counted among the content to review.

  • Accept: the delivery counts as completed and the miss no longer counts in the creator's CCR. You can still see that it came after the deadline (Accepted after the deadline in Reviewed Content).
  • Ask for changes: give a new deadline and say what should change. The creator sends the updated video the usual way and you review it as usual. This counts toward the limit of two described under Give More Time; at 2 of 2 it cannot be used, and you can only accept or decline. Because it comes after a missed deadline, the delivery also counts as late in the creator's On time number.
  • Decline: the miss stays, and the creator cannot send another late video for that deadline. A delivery still running is marked as missed right away. If you later give that delivery more time, the creator gets a new deadline, and one more chance to send a late video if they miss it while Allow late videos is on for the campaign. More time is possible only while the key still works and fewer than two extensions are used; otherwise the decline dialog tells you the decision is final. While the creator holds another key in the campaign that is not finished, the dialog says more time becomes possible once that key is approved, expired or revoked.
  • A late video can arrive on a delivery whose key you revoked. You can accept or decline it; Ask for changes needs a key that still works.

While a late video waits for your decision you cannot give that delivery more time, revoke its key, send that creator a new key, remove the campaign or remove the game. Manage Keys shows Late video waiting on the row. Once the 14 days to decide are over, the late video no longer blocks any of these, and it is closed at the next daily check. The same goes at once for a late video whose creator deleted their account: it can no longer be decided.

Give More Time

Only your studio can move a creator's deadline, and only to a later one. Use Give more time on the delivery in Manage Keys and pick a date. The new deadline is the end of that day in UTC (11:59 PM UTC). The date has to be after the day of the current deadline and no earlier than tomorrow, both counted in UTC, and at most a year from today. The creator is notified of the new deadline.

  • Before the deadline passes, giving more time does not count toward any limit.
  • Once the deadline has passed, you can give that delivery more time at most twice, whether it is overdue or already expired. Ask for changes on a late video counts toward the same two; a new deadline set together with a rejection of a video sent on time does not. Each time is recorded, and Manage Keys shows how many of the two you have used (After the deadline: 1 of 2 extensions used). When both are used, the button stays visible but cannot be used, and the row says why.
  • If the deadline passes while the dialog is open, nothing is saved yet: the dialog tells you the change now counts toward the limit and asks you to confirm again. A deadline less than a minute away when you confirm is treated the same way, so a change that lands just after the deadline is never saved as one that does not count.
  • A delivery whose key no longer works cannot be given more time once its deadline has passed.
  • An expired delivery can be given more time only while the creator's key still works and the creator holds no other live key in the campaign. This reopens the delivery, and the creator can submit again.

A creator cannot give their own delivery more time, even if they are also a member of your studio. Manage Keys does not offer Give more time on a delivery whose creator is you or a team you belong to.

What Cannot Erase a Missed Deadline

  • Revoking the key of an overdue delivery revokes the key and marks the delivery as expired, not revoked. The missed deadline stays in the creator's CCR, and the creator is notified that you revoked the key and that the delivery now counts as a missed deadline.
  • Deleting the key of an overdue delivery does not cancel it: the next daily check still marks it as expired.
  • An overdue delivery cannot be deleted.
  • A delivery with a late video cannot be deleted, whatever you decided.
  • Revoking the key of a delivery you gave more time after its deadline, by Give more time or Ask for changes, marks it as expired again: the missed deadline comes back, even though the new deadline has not passed. The revoke dialog says so before you confirm. Deleting such a key does not cancel the delivery; the next daily check after its new deadline marks it as expired unless the creator delivers first. Such a delivery cannot be deleted either. The revoke has one exception: when the creator's video is waiting for your review, the key is revoked as before, no missed deadline is recorded, and the dialog shows no such warning.

Only accepting a late video, or giving more time, takes a missed deadline out of the creator's CCR, and more time only while the new deadline runs.

Engagement Updates

After you approve content, Gamosy periodically refreshes the engagement metrics (views, likes, comments) to track the content's ongoing performance. This data feeds into your Campaign Impact dashboard.
