There are no errors at all but I cannot see my video in the youtube channel.

It used to upload well before the deactivation of my channel

but now this isnt working anymore. please help, thank you.

​​​​​​

I got answered my zapier like below. I think the third and fourth might my case.

How do I ensure that if my youtube channel is mapped properly?

  1. Upload issues: If you're experiencing a "SoftTimeLimitExceeded" error, it means the upload process is taking longer than 3 minutes. Try compressing your video to speed up the upload.
  2. Upload limits: If you're on a Free or Trial plan, you're limited to 5 video uploads per day. To upload more, consider upgrading to a paid plan.
  3. Video visibility: We can only find public videos. If your videos are set to private or unlisted, they won't be detected by Zapier.
  4. Channel ID: Ensure you've correctly mapped your YouTube Channel ID in the Channel field of your Zap.

 

Hi @enoch

Check/test your Zap app connections here: https://zapier.com/app/connections

For us to have more info, post screenshots showing how your Zap steps are outlined and configured in EDIT mode for the “Configure” section.

@enoch 

The screenshots still do not show how the Zap step is configured in the “Configure” section.

If you are trying to use a File URL, it must be publicly accessible direct download link.

You can check by trying to open the link in a new private browser to see if it initiates a direct download of the file.

Hi @enoch 👋

Did you manage to resolve things by changing the permissions for the file so it’s publicly accessible?

Want to make sure this gets sorted so please keep us updated on how things are progressing! 🙂


 

 

still not resolved.

I tried excluding file contents as well but this isn’t working


Hi @enoch,

I’m jumping in to see if I can help!

Could you please send a screenshot of the “CONFIGURE” section of the Find File step? Additionally, could you please confirm if the file name “2024” exists in Dropbox?

Still not uploading it.

Please help!


Hey there, ​@enoch🙂

I did some checking and it spotted that the “Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘.tag’)” error you were running into previously appears to have been caused by a bug that was since resolved: 

 

Still not uploading it.

Please help!

Looking at your recent screenshots it seems that the recent tests of the Upload Video file were correct in that it didn’t upload them. With the Upload Video action, any tests within the Zap editor are expected to not upload the actual video file and only show the default test data that’s pictured in your screenshots. Check out our My Zap does not show real data when I test the Upload Video action for details. 

If the issue is more that it’s not uploading the videos when the Zap is switched on and running live, can you confirm whether you still receive a “Error (410)Something went wrong. Don’t worry, your files are still safe and the Dropbox team has been notified. Check out our Status Page to see if there is a known incident, our Help Center and forum…” error or a different error? And if you can share a screenshot of any errors you’re seeing in a recent run of the Zap that would be super helpful to us in troubleshooting further. Make sure to blur or remove all personal information (names, emails, addresses etc.) from screenshots before sharing - you can use a tool like Zappy for that.

Thanks, I look forward to your reply!
