Try it
Act as a social media manager. I need to upload [video file] to our [company name] YouTube channel using Grok Bot. Do not use automated browser sessions; instead, configure the official YouTube Data API with OAuth 2.0. Inputs: [API credentials], [video file path], [channel ID]. Steps: 1. Verify API scope permissions. 2. Upload the video. 3. Monitor for security alerts. Output: A JSON report with upload status and any error codes. Success metric: Successful upload without account suspension. If API credentials are missing, ask me for them. Do not proceed with browser automation. Confirm with me before publishing.
