问题
I am trying to edit my channel description using the Youtube Data API V3, but I get a "500 Internal Server Error" if I try to do anything with "brandingSettings". I even tried starting a private browsing session and using a different Google account. Is this a Google issue that will be fixed soon? Or am I doing something wrong?
EDIT: Sorry, I am new. I am just using the "Try It!" thing on developers.google.com.
Request:
PUT https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=brandingSettings&key={API_KEY}
{
"brandingSettings": {
"channel": {
"description": "testing"
}
}
}

If you get a 500 Error wait some minutes and try again. If you still get a 500 Error try and wait some hours or some days. Please make sure that you are giving the right channel id.
The way to do it in API, do a channels->list request and use that response object, modify it and put it back. (Most important make sure the id is there and set.)
