[source-youtube-analytics] Issue with the youtube analytics connector

[himanshudube97]

Connector Name

source-youtube analytics connector

Connector Version

v0.1.4

What step the error happened?

Configuring a new connector

Relevant information

• As its mentioned in the youtube connector docs-> YouTube does not start to generate a report until you create a reporting job for that report. Airbyte creates a reporting job for your report or uses current reporting job if it's already exists.

• But when i added my account as source, i was getting an invalid and inactive youtube account error (my youtube doesnt t have any activity).

  

• So I created a job for using curl command,

• 1. --url "https://youtubereporting.googleapis.com/v1/reportTypes" \
• 2. --url "https://youtubereporting.googleapis.com/v1/jobs" \
• 3. --url "https://youtubereporting.googleapis.com/v1/jobs//reports" \

After manually creating the job , when i clicked the add source , it was added successfully. So may be my youtube account channel was not active (no viewers, no comments, no posts), thats why it gave the error.

Observation2-> When i added a youtube account which was active , it did not show me the error, and was added successfully.

Possible reason-> "https://youtubereporting.googleapis.com/v1/jobs//reports"

• for my account this returned empty {} and code must be returning a false for this. hence the error.
