Youtube Data using Miguel Escobar's connector

Hello,

 

I am using Miguel Escobar's Youtube connector but I noticed that it is returning only data from videos published after the 25/02/2018, any video posted in that date and before it is just not getting anything. 
I thought that it was a pagination issue but I noticed that it is doing pagination in the connector code and in PowerBI it returns 100 videos and each page returns a maximum of 50, therefore the pagination is taking place. So I thought the problem was that it was only doing pagination once but then I tried to get data from before 26/02/2018 and I get the error that is posted in an image bellow.

I checked the channel and in the 26/02/2018 there are 20 videos posted but PowerBI is only returning 12 of them. The 12 that are being returned are the ones that fit into the 1-100 range, the other 8 videos fit after in the 100+ range.

 

Is it that after the 100th video the data about comments is no longer considered and therefore is not returned and that's why I get this error and hence the video is not being returned?
I am checking the API documentation as well but not managing to find anything.

 

Has anyone else had this issue using the connector? Any tips or extra information that I am missing?

 

Thank you in advance,

João

Hi, @FormigoJoao 

 

I'm not familiar with Miguel Escobar's Youtube connector. I'd like to suggest you get further help by contacting the author who is more professional on the problem.

 

Best Regards

Hi :),

I did ask him via Github but he's not sure what is happening and at the moment the demand doesn't meet the need to fix it. I've been trying a workaround somehow.

Thank you 🙂
