Video "locked as private" after upload #306
Comments

Yep. They also have made it so you can no longer use puppeteer to access youtube. I think the only way now is to buy Gsuite and make your internal credentials Edit: Gsuite is no longer an option either. |
|
You have to go through the application verification process. From the email sent earlier tis year: Audit link: https://support.google.com/youtube/contact/yt_api_form It is a bit tricky to explain them how youtube-upload works, but it is possible.. |
|
I was trying to get verifieid it took sometime to do so and I am still not able to upload without gettin videos locked, youtube supports last email isn't stating anything if i was or wasnt't verified ` Thanks for working with us on the YouTube API Services compliance review.

This means that you are reviewed and found in compliance with YouTube API, so you uploads should work now without being locked into private |

Sometimes it takes time to roll out these changes. Does it work now? |
yes, finally now it seem to work as expected. It took long time, probably because it was a weekend? |
|
Sorry to break the bad news, but I just uploaded a video and it still got flagged "locked as private". |
hey man can i get some help ? what do you mean by getting verified may i get a link or anything? |
|
@zilton7 did you verify it from the "OAuth consent screen" > "EDIT APP" in the Google developer console? Then fill in the fields:
And after that, click on "Submit for verification" button? |
|

Does anyone have an example privacy policy and ToS text that gets accepted by them? And apparently I also need to include a demo video on youtube of "how the app is used"... |
|
so sad, but let me try verify. |
|
YouTube makes this process incedibly complicated and confusing . They think we're all large corporations with huge IT staff and $$ to understand what they want us to do. The truth is most of YouTube is run by mom and pop folks who have zero IT knowledge. |
|
good news, I was passed cost time: 8 days |
Can you share what they requested? I believe you have to show your app running on a site with it's own domain name and with a SSL certificate, so https accessible, not http. |
|
@feacluster sure, but not difficult, simply, I give them a screen record video to show how I used this tool to upload video in command shell, and show the problem I faced(after upload, in the video edit page can't change to public). |
|
Just tried out another upload. Next to still being "locked as private", the video stays in a state "uploading" when you check it on studio.youtube.com, even after the uploader script has finished. |
Did you recall if you requested "Restriced scopes" when you submitted your app for verification? I don't really understand whether I need them or not. |
|
My app passed the verification from YouTube. But still when I upload videos via the youtube-upload script they are still being marked as Private. They asked for a demo video that shows how the error happens. I sent them that but seems they did not like it and want to see more details from how the youtube-upload script works alongwith how it is attached to the project. Here is their email: Unfortunately, we found your YouTube demo video to be insufficient for verification, because it does not showcase the client id and no permission page your application is currently accessing. (Please see the attached screenshot for reference of client id) Please make sure that your screencast hosted on youtube includes all of the following requirements: Note: Please provide an Updated YouTube link by showing the project number, so that we can proceed with the approval process. Thank you for your patience. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have questions or concerns. |

@feacluster @lovemyliwu I have ssl website for my app, but I plan use it own. |
I think Application was Other or TV/limited input device. You don't need G suite. If the app is uploading to your YouTube account like this youtube-upload is, then it needs verification. At least that is my understanding. |
|
Thank you, @feacluster. |
Good to know that worked for you. I had not tried that. There is also another way to upload youtube videos usnig a browser based method.. See: https://github.com/linouk23/youtube_uploader_selenium I have not tried it but will keep it as backup in case YouTube pulls the plug on whatever I am doing ! |
Yes I tryed this script but it not work for me because It use Linux GUI and I am not. |
|
It's not the You should fill this form https://support.google.com/youtube/contact/yt_api_form |
|
I ran into this issue when I did not supply a --privacy flag. Supplying --privacy=private on another attempt did not cause the video to be locked when the upload was complete. |
Issue only occurs on Public videos. |
I have the same issue with live streams created with the API get marked as Private even after getting my App Verified in OAuth and after filling in the Audit form https://support.google.com/youtube/contact/yt_api_form. How long did it take for yours to start working? It's been a week or so for me so far. Thanks |
|
@ScottishWildlifeGarden i am in similar possition
I am in a similar situation would able to let me know how long it will take and what the next step is after you submit google review form? Thanks |
Started working for me after another week so I think it was about 2 weeks in total. So hang tight. |
|
I'm having this issue even after 2 weeks of verifying my app... |
Hey I received the same email and when I am trying to upload videos they are still marking it as Private(Locked) and I am getting a mail that my video violates there spams,deceptive policies and scams policy I saw that the issues got solved for you after some time , approximately how much time it takes and does it works good now too or youtube teams keeps creating some problem |
Hey I received the same email . Have you solved this problem and how? |
|
Just wanted to write my experience with the youtube api team I sent a quota request directly linking this repository and stating my use case(just personal use - specifically reuploading lecture recordings from sharepoint to youtube as unlisted) - got my quota increase within a week. I asked for and got 20k per day - which is more than enough for me. Quota got increased and the keys started working immediately after the response mail. |
|
For those unaware, here is where Google talks about new requirements, which came into effect late 2020. https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/revision_history#release_notes_07_28_2020 https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/videos

|
Thanks I wasted 4 hours trying to set this up, just to find out about this. |
Did you fill the whole super long form for this or did you use another way? |
|
don't remember it, was a long time ago, probably did the form

I'm new to this and the official forms seems super long and complicated :/
Thank you

I used this one year old video to help me going through the form, if it can help someone else : |
|
I filled out this form and got a response in 4 days from YouTube and can now upload videos that are publicly viewable. |
Does it make sense to start with much less "Queries per day" than "Queries per minute"? |
|
Hi guys, I am a bit confused, what am I supposed to enter here: I just want to use this script to upload my son's soccer games, I don't have a homepage or privacy policy or TOS ... What did you guys enter there? Thank you, |
|
@muahdib69 Unfortunately I cannot recover the submitted form, but I referred to this repository as much as possible and after 2-3 days they got back to me asking for the explicit URL of the channel where the videos would be uploaded. I provided it and they final response was "We will conduct our review based on the information you provided. We will notify you if we need additional information, or when we’ve completed our review". |
|
Ah, thank you, I tried this before, but it required the github.com domain, I know just put github.com there and the form did accept it ... let's see how it goes. |
|
@muahdib69 I updated my last comment. |
|
@ScottishWildlifeGarden I am in a similar situation. All the videos I upload to Youtube through an app script tool get locked private. |
|
I think the developer should add a disclaimer to the readme about this issue. The setup takes a while and the tool ends up being effectively useless for many. |
|
Does anyone know how much time it takes for YouTube to allow you to upload videos publicly once the API has been verified? I submitted the form and got the email below Thanks for working with us on the YouTube API Services compliance review. We have completed your review and don’t require any further actions from you at this time. We may reach out again to re-review your API Client for compliance with YouTube API Services Terms and Policies. We appreciate your cooperation with us. Please continue to comply with the YouTube API Services Terms and Policies. Thanks, The YouTube API Services Team However this was four days ago and whenever I upload it still uploads them as private and locked. |
Can't remember, but probably was no more than a day after I got the email from Youtube. But now I am using a new tool, youtubeuploader . Maybe try posting your issue there as it is more active than this obsolete tool. |
|
I'll give that a go thank you |
|
Here is my experience: my application was audited in about four days after I submitted the request. Then I waited more than 4 days but it didn't fix the "private (locked)" issue on video uploads. So I filled out another form originally designed to increase the quota for those who already have their project audited, but instead of explaining why I needed this quota increase, I explained that my video upload is not working after 74 hours. Surprisingly they replied and asked me to upload the video again and tell them if the issue was still there. I was trying to upload a videos a few more days after they replied and eventually the issue disappeared. I'm not sure if that was because I requested them to fix the issue or because more than 74 hours of waiting is needed. |
|
The issue has seem to be fixed it took 5 days for it to sort itself out thank you for your responses! |
and others
I've succesfully uploaded a video, but upon completion I received an e-mail from Google stating:
Sharing the video with someone else was impossible because of this. It seems that all videos uploaded with youtube-upload get "locked as private" on my account.
More info: Youtube Help: Videos locked as private
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
