[YouTube-API] Re: C# YouTube API- Execution failed(404) error while trying to update the video

Hello Jeff, Replacing the account name "carolinachevy" with "default"
in the request URL fixed the problem. Thanks a lot, I appreciate your
help.

I have few more question about the same thing you might help me with.
I was using browser based uploading method and I used carolinachevy
credentials to get upload URL and Token.
1)Any idea how the video is being uploaded to a different account when
we were using carolinachevy credential to get the tokens.
2) We were able to log in to carolinachevy youtube channel and view
the video but API call returns 404 when we use the account name
"carolinachevy". How that's possible?

Thanks.
