What YouTube asks of a connected account, the limits its official API enforces, and which of them this product has built against so far.

What YouTube requires
- Account type
- A YouTube channel connected through your Google account.
- Platform restriction
- A project that has not passed the Google API compliance audit can upload only as private. Post Array will not describe public uploading as available until that audit passes, and the connection screen states which state your uploads will land in.
- API cost
- No per operation charge. A daily quota applies and cannot be shared across projects.
