Hi zagger ,

I have searched other video links about Youtube Analystics but both of them are based on a version long time ago and l'm not certain whether it is supported in current version of power bi desktop. If you want to try, you may need to find a long time ago version of desktop. Or you can try to contact the connector author as I have posted previously.

Other videos link attached:

Hi v-yingjl ,

 

Thank you for helping out. I had already seen the 2nd and 3rd videos which could not solve the issue. I looked at the 1st video which did not help me but gave me a prospect that I can also achieve what I need if I import Youtube analytics data in Power BI. Basically what I need to achieve is, rather than taking reports from Youtube Studio every month I would just like to refresh the PBI so I get the data till date. I do not need to use API connector, it was just that I thought that is the only way to do this.
