How can I integrate Google Forms with YouTube using Zapier?
You can integrate Google Forms with YouTube using Zapier by setting up a Zap that connects the two services.

This way, when a new form response is submitted, an action will automatically occur on YouTube.

Are there any limitations when working with file uploads in Google Forms for triggering actions on YouTube?

However, metadata collected via forms about these files can be used for triggering actions like updating existing video details on YouTube.
Can I customize how data from my forms are used in my actions on YouTube?
