Thanks for reaching out,
It looks like you were able to speak with my teammate Viktor in support who confirmed this is a known bug for playlists exceeding 50 videos. They did you add you as a follower on the bug and we’ll be sure to keep you and this thread updated once there’s a resolution. 🙂

We are unable to tell what Youtube trigger you are using from the screenshot you provided.
Can you show screenshots of each section in the Zap trigger step?

My Zap can't find a video even though I know it exists
Videos that are private or unlisted cannot be used, we can only pick up videos that are set to public and can be watched by anybody!

My videos aren't being found by the New Video in Channel trigger
YouTube provides a "Human Readable" web address for a channel, such as: https://www.youtube.com/c/ZapierVideos.
In order to find the Channel ID to put into the field here:
Click the "Videos" link/tab/section in YouTube, and then look at the web address in their browser.
You should see something like this in the URL: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCa4RU443sQ17CW6xg_uWJfQ/videos.
Copy and paste the characters between "channel/" and "/videos" (in this example, UCa4RU443sQ17CW6xg_uWJfQ) into the Channel field in Zapier.

when I enter the site I get the same channel ID...
I tried with the user ID as well and it didn't work.
I also tried the custom url and there is no solution…
