Application review

Open wolfgangam31 opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Hi,

So I'm using the script to upload videos to my YT channel, and I wanted to ask if i'm obviosly using it for internal use , i'm the only user etc... So I created Oauth as requested, everything is fine, video is up, but it's listed as "private" and I can't change it without getting YouTube approval to my application.. and it directs me to a whole form to fill out, asking for organization name, website etc...

Is that really necessary or did I do something wrong? I fill like I should have used "API-Key" and not Oauth, but I didn't see an option for that / know how to.

Thank you

Same. It looks like Google has changed their policy.

Starting a few months ago, they now require every app go through some long-winded approval process. Be prepared for them not to read anything you send them about your app. They will instead reply back with paragraphs of copy/pasted nonsense.

Hey! I came across this same issue and understood that the only way to upload now is by using web scraping methods. Here's a working module for python: https://github.com/linouk23/youtube_uploader_selenium I also made my own for node.js: https://github.com/gladiatortoise/node-apiless-youtube-upload

Hopefully this helps!
