Read-only by design, revocable at any time
Handing a third-party tool access to your channels deserves scrutiny. Here is exactly what YT Manager asks for and why.
The problem with the Studio workflow
Many tools request write access they never need, which makes revoking them a bigger deal than it should be.
What YT Manager does differently
- youtube.readonly to list your channels and videos
- yt-analytics.readonly for views, watch time and traffic
- yt-analytics-monetary.readonly, optional, for estimated revenue
- No posting, editing or deleting — ever
