"Too many sign-in attempts" error when publishing to YouTube

Descript's ability to publish videos directly to YouTube can help streamline your video workflow, but in rare cases, you may run into authentication issues when logging into your YouTube account. 

If that occurs, you may receive an error message that states "Too many sign-in attempts, please wait a few minutes before trying again".

After receiving that error, please wait 3-5 minutes, then begin the YouTube publishing process again. 

If that error appears again after waiting for 3-5 minutes, please fully restart your computer before trying to publish to YouTube once more.
