Onboarding Guide

Run a Spotify or YouTube Growth Audit, create an artist workspace, and complete the connections required for a managed campaign.

Last updated Aug 14, 2026 9 sections

Dynamoi begins with an audit-first onboarding flow. You can evaluate a Spotify artist or YouTube channel, enter the dashboard on the Free plan, and complete paid-campaign setup only when you are ready to advertise.

Start with a Growth Audit

The first-run form lets you choose Spotify or YouTube.

  1. Choose Spotify or YouTube Use the platform toggle to select the source you want Dynamoi to evaluate.

  2. Identify the artist or channel For Spotify, paste a supported Spotify URL or search by artist name. For YouTube, paste a public channel URL.

  3. Run the audit Submit the form. Dynamoi creates or resolves the artist workspace and starts building the available audit data.

Spotify onboarding can also begin creating free Smart Links from the public catalog. You can add another artist later from the artist switcher with Add artist.

Choose a marketing goal

Inside onboarding, the Select Marketing Goal toggle switches the primary setup path between Spotify Growth and YouTube Growth. Changing the goal does not delete the other platform's data or prevent you from using both campaign types later.

Spotify Growth

Spotify Growth is the Smart Campaign path. It uses Spotify content, a tracked Smart Link, and Dynamoi-managed Meta advertising.

Before launch, the artist needs:

- A connected Spotify artist
- A completed Meta Page, Instagram, and partnership setup
- An active managed-advertising plan with a valid payment method

YouTube Growth

YouTube Growth is the managed Google Ads path for eligible videos and Shorts.

Before launch, the artist needs:

- A connected YouTube channel
- An approved Google Ads link in YouTube Studio
- An active managed-advertising plan with a valid payment method

What is available before billing

The artist starts on Free. You can use ordinary dashboard tools, create free Smart Links, inspect public and connected data, review campaign requirements, and manage account access without activating a paid plan.

Some private advertising connection steps can show Activate billing before they open. This gate prepares the artist for managed delivery; it does not make ordinary tools paid.

Finish the checklist

The dashboard shows the setup items relevant to the selected goal. Complete the prompts in the order the UI presents them, because an external approval can be required before the next step becomes ready.

Spotify Growth

  1. Connect the correct Spotify artist.
  2. Activate managed advertising when prompted.
  3. Connect Meta, select the eligible Facebook Page and professional Instagram account, and approve Dynamoi in Meta Business Manager.
  4. Create or select the Smart Link and campaign assets.

YouTube Growth

  1. Activate managed advertising when prompted.
  2. Connect the correct YouTube channel.
  3. Wait for the Google Ads link request, approve it in YouTube Studio, and confirm the approval in Dynamoi.
  4. Select eligible promoted videos and, for playlist-based strategies, their destination playlists.

Before launching

Review the content, locations, dates, and budget carefully. Smart Campaigns require at least $50 total and $10 per day. YouTube Campaigns require at least $75 total, at least five full account days, and an average of at least $10 per day.

A submitted campaign can still require content validation, provider review, or deployment before it becomes active. Launching does not guarantee a particular advertising result.
