Hey there,

I’m try to do some YouTube automation. watching playlist and the pulling subtitles, etc. However, every 30min or so I have to re-auth my YouTube connection under “connections”. I’m aware that the Google cloud project needs to be “published” and I already did that. However I still need to re-auth it every 30min. The thing is the Google cloud project says the publishing needs to be verified. It says it’s public, but I didn’t let it verify. Do I also need that? If not, what is the problem here?

Hi @Tommy83 and welcome to the Make Community!

The verification is required if you do some specifc things. One of them is using your logo. If you remove your logo, you won’t have to verify your account. The other is the scope of access. If your published app requests sensitive or restricted scopes (that should be defined somwhere in the console) you will need to verify your account. If you restrict your app to non-sensitive scopes, you will not need to do that.
