I'm reaching out because our development team has been encountering difficulties while attempting to upload videos from Google Cloud Storage to YouTube.
Here's a quick rundown of our process: we upload videos to Google Cloud Storage first and then try to upload them to YouTube. However, the final step consistently fails. Considering the wealth of resources available online, we're wondering if the issue might be on YouTube's end.
We use Google Cloud Storage because uploading videos larger than 1 GB directly to YouTube from our local environment is not feasible. Interestingly, any attempt to upload a video larger than 1 GB from our web page is met with automatic blocking. Is this the expected behavior?
The error message we receive during the YouTube upload from Cloud Storage lacks precision, making it challenging to pinpoint and address the issue.
What's confusing is that, on the YouTube page, the video remains in a pending status, almost as if YouTube is holding it for approval. Is this a standard process? Do we need to make a specific request to enable this type of operation on YouTube?
We'd really appreciate your insights and assistance in resolving this matter. Thanks a bunch for your time, and looking forward to your guidance.
What I Tried:Attempted to upload a video from Google Cloud Storage to YouTube using our web page.
Expected Outcome:Expected the video upload process to complete successfully on YouTube without any issues, as per our standard workflow
Actual Result:Encountered an error during the final step of the upload process. The error message received was vague and did not provide sufficient information to identify and resolve the issue. Additionally, noticed that videos larger than 1 GB are automatically blocked when attempting to upload from our wen page to YouTube.
