Error message

当前账号未启用 YouTube，请先创建频道

What it means

In uploadVideo's catch block around channels.list(mine=true), when Google rejects the request with error reason 'youtubeSignupRequired', the service rethrows this friendlier Error. It means the authenticated Google account is not enrolled with YouTube at all — YouTube features (including the Data API) are unavailable for that identity until a channel exists.

Solutions

1. Open youtube.com with the exact linked Google account and finish channel creation, then retry the upload.
2. Re-authorize the account in the app after activation so scopes/token are refreshed.
3. Confirm via GET https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=snippet&mine=true that items is non-empty.
4. If it is a Workspace account, have the admin enable YouTube or link a personal account instead.

Example fix

// before
// upload attempted directly with a non-YouTube Google identity
// after
const res = await fetch('https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=snippet&mine=true', { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${token}` } });
const data = await res.json();
if (!data.items?.length) throw new Error('Enable YouTube / create a channel for this Google account first');

const res = await fetch('https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=snippet&mine=true', { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${token}` } });
const body = await res.json();
const reason = body?.error?.errors?.[0]?.reason;
if (reason === 'youtubeSignupRequired') throw new Error('YouTube not enabled for this Google account');

function isSignupRequired(err: { errors?: { reason?: string }[] }): boolean {
  return err.errors?.[0]?.reason === 'youtubeSignupRequired';
}

try {
  await upload();
} catch (e) {
  if (isSignupRequired(e) || String(e.message).includes('当前账号未启用 YouTube')) {
    redirectToYouTubeChannelCreation();
  } else throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Any upload attempt where the channels.list probe (or the upload itself) returns err.errors[0].reason === 'youtubeSignupRequired'; typically accounts created via Google sign-up that never activated YouTube.

Common situations: Google Workspace/enterprise accounts with YouTube disabled; freshly created service-adjacent Google accounts; users switching the linked account in the app to one that has no YouTube presence.
