Youtube connector API in latest version
Hi,
I am a new power bi user and trying to connect Youtube connector with power bi. I have the credentials for the user. I tried looking at some famous videos but what they advised was somehow not available in the latest version of Power BI desktop that I am using. Unfortunately, I can not download an older version which could have the same features. My aim is to get the data refreshed everytime there is a change in Youtube analytics. Could someone please help me to connect my dashboard with data analytics from Youtube.
Thanks in advance and apologies if I am wrong somewhere as I am very new to power BI.

Hi zagger ,
This is a custom data connector provide by 'migueesc123', I'm not so sure why he remove this.
Maybe you can take a look at following links to know more about this or direct contact him at github.

Hi v-yingjl ,
Thank you very much for the help. I tried the same link. I went through his 3 videos on youtube and could not manage to do the same settings. Primarily because I could not follow it completely. And also because there are some different settings in the API Google connections. I had a road block after few attempts and then looked at some other videos but unfortunately no luck.
Do you know any other link or video which tells us the step and regardless of any version it works with all?
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.
