Objectives: to identify the contents and characteristics of videos posted on YouTube that deal with Iramuteq software use as a tool to assist qualitative research and discuss the contribution of this social network to dissemination of knowledge, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Method: this is an exploratory-descriptive study with a qualitative approach, carried out with YouTube videos, collected in June 2021 and subjected to thematic analysis.
Results: a total of 43 videos on the researched topic were identified, with the majority (69.76%) published from 2020-2021. As for content, five categories were identified.
Conclusion: the videos explain about Iramuteq installation, the textual corpus preparation, the errors identified by users and methods to correct them, the lexical analysis developed by the program and how to use it. The content is presented in a theoretical and practical way through the software interface presentation. Thus, YouTube's contribution to developing teaching and disseminating knowledge is observed, both because it constitutes itself as a source for research and because it fosters dialogues between researchers, especially in a pandemic context.
