Lack of permission error (403) while action: Reply on a comment (App: YouTube)

I am unable to automate replying to youtube comments, because of lack of permissions error, which seems odd because my youtube connection was authenticated by the owner account of the channel.

Hello @Aryaman,

Upon reviewing the issue, we found that the action was using an incorrect connection. We have now connected it using "YouTube #5," and the action appears to be working correctly. Please refer to the attached image for more details. Let us know if you need any further assistance.

@Preeti Paryani Connection Youtube 5 is for my personal account for testing purpose and I am not supposed to post comments on the official channel from personal account that replies need to be posted from official account only which is Youtube connection 3

@Preeti Paryani This automation is relying to just the latest/top comment after every 10 minutes, not to all new comments within 10 minutes. How can I fix this?

@Preeti Paryani So, if I am upgrading my plan to ultimate I will be able to access this workflow without any other limitations if I am not wrong.
So I am looking to create similar automations for the same purpose for around 150 YouTube channels,Can you please walk me through on any limitations that we might face considerin we are on Ultimate plan subscription.

Hello @Aryaman,

There would be no limitations from our end if you're on the Ultimate plan. However, YouTube has its own rate limits, which are managed on their end. As long as your requests stay within those limits, your workflow should function smoothly.

Additionally, the trigger you’re planning to use is a polling-based trigger. With our paid plan, the polling time can be reduced to 10 minutes, ensuring faster data retrieval.

Let us know if you need any further clarification!
