I'd like to upload videos on youtube with a python script that uses their API but I read that's how they can spot spammers and flag videos. Do some of you upload via a script through their API and still get good numbers ? Does it make a difference with the manual upload on their site?
The frequency of uploads should have an importance too I guess.
Thanks.
 
The limit is 15 a day, devided by 256gig or something, if it's 256gig that's the max for 1 day.

Or 17.0666666667 / 256 per day
 
I heard that when uploading via API it is only possible to upload private videos, is this true? It's just that if via YouTube API you can easily upload 15 videos a day, not fly into the shadow ban, get good views and get channel monetization - thats OG
 
One more question
Am I right in thinking that all quotas are calculated for one account?
That is, if I have 10 channels, when changing credentials I will be able to upload 150 videos in total?

You can upload via api public vids , but u need trusted api keys , I have 2 api keys one capable of uploading ~25k vids/daily and 2nd capable uploading 200k vids/daily
 
I've seen folks get nailed for way less. Why not stagger your uploads, make 'em look more human?
 
Youtube api is a waste of time, before uploading videos via API you will need to upload 10 videos in the usual way, otherwise videos uploaded via API will not get views. Learn automation on requests or browser, this is the only solution
