Before you connect
Make sure you are signing in with the Google account that can access the correct YouTube channel. Most connection issues come from choosing the right brand but the wrong Google identity.
What permissions are used for
NextVid needs read access so it can pull channel and video performance data into your workspace. It is not asking for permission to publish videos or change channel settings.
If the wrong channel appears
- Disconnect and reconnect with the correct Google account.
- Re-check brand account access in YouTube.
- Confirm you selected the intended channel in the post-auth flow.
