I can't upload more than 5 videos in a day
If you're on a Free or Trial Zapier plan, you're limited to uploading up to 5 videos in a 24-hour period with the Youtube app. To fix held Zap runs, wait 24 hours, and you can replay them. To upload more than 5 videos in a day, you'll need to upgrade to a Zapier paid plan.
My Zap does not show real data when I test the Upload Video action.
When you test the YouTube action "Upload Video", the step will not upload the video. It will return default data so that you can continue setting up the Zap without affecting your channel.
