Uploading videos using Youtube Data API v3

Question

I have a small issue: When trying to upload a video using the YouTube data API with Python, the video is automatically turned private and become locked when the upload finishes.

Is there any solution for this problem?

Answer 1

At the very top of the documentation page for videos.insert it states.

If you application is in testing mode videos are private.

Go to google cloud console for your project under the oauth2 screen. Set it to public your videos will now upload as public or private
