YouTube (Account)
target_app: "youtube_account" · endpoint /v1/google/execute · OAuth — connects per end-user automatically
Setup
Same unified Google connection as Calendar — nothing separate to set up. Note: this only reads the account's own channel info — playback control isn't available (see the Music docs for why).
Actions
get_my_channel
Get the connected user's own YouTube channel info.

"channelId not found" / empty response
Cause: The connected Google account doesn't have a YouTube channel created.
Fix: The user needs to create a YouTube channel on their Google account first — nothing eConnect can fix.
401 "Unauthorized: Invalid API key."
Cause: Your eConnect Authorization header is missing, malformed, or the key was regenerated/revoked.
Fix: Copy your api_key fresh from the eConnect dashboard and confirm the header reads exactly "Authorization: Bearer <key>".
429 "Too many requests"
Cause: You've exceeded your plan's per-minute rate limit.
Fix: Wait a minute and retry, or upgrade your plan for a higher per-minute limit.
429 "Monthly API limit exceeded"
Cause: You've used your plan's full monthly request allowance.
Fix: Wait for your next billing cycle reset, or upgrade to a plan with a higher monthly limit.
