I have a youtube channel, CNLohr, http://youtube.com/cnlohr which I use as my primary livestreaming platform. It is distinct from my primary gmail account. My gmail account has its own youtube, but I don't have subscribers or anything on that. CNLohr is a "Brand manager"
My problem is that when authorizing an API application it seems to only apply to my gmail account account. Even if I authorize it as my youtube brand. It's very confusing as I can select my youtube or email account when at youtube but I cannot when visiting the API pages.
For example, if I visit https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/live/docs/liveChatMessages/list and attempt to use the "Try this API feature" it works flawlessly with my email account - however - there seems to be no way to log onto that site as "CNLohr." When I click the icon up to, it only shows my gmail account and does not show my youtube account as an option.
No matter what I try I can't seem to get livestream or live stream chat IDs from my brand manager account, though it's trivial via my normal gmail account.
How should I proceed if I wish to use the youtube API with my primary 24k subscriber account?
(Scratched out just so no image screevers get my email, it's okay for you guys to know it!)
