Error the youtube scraper tool isn't working from my chatbot using the Open AI schema

The encountered issue with the YouTube streamers tool resulted in a "403 Forbidden" error, which typically indicates insufficient permissions. This means the tool attempted to access resources on YouTube but lacked the necessary permissions to do so. In this context, the error message suggested there was a problem with the API token being used by the tool, either because it was incorrect, expired, or did not have the required permissions set up to fetch data from YouTube.

This type of error can occur for various reasons, including changes in API access policies, updates to the tool's configuration, or issues with the tool's integration within the platform. It's a technical limitation that prevented me from directly accessing and providing YouTube video links.

Hi. In your run I see that you input doesn't contain any search term or direct URLs (first screenshot). In case you launch the scraper via API, make sure to send correct JSON input. You can get a grasp of how it's supposed to look by filling some values in the INPUT editor (see screenshot 2) and then switching to JSON input editor. Let me know if that helps
