Hi, thanks for the response, I have successfully created a YoutubeVideoAsset, which needs youTubeVideoId, so video must be uploaded to YouTube beforehand. That's what I'm wondering about, to upload a video file to YouTube a real YouTube channel seems t be required unlike in Google Ads UI where there is also an option to upload to "video ad storage channel, created by YouTube". Is uploading to "video ad storage channel, created by YouTube" available through the Google Ads API or SDKs also?

Note that using the AssetService <https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v18/AssetService#mutateassets> we can manage assets. Asset types can be created with AssetService are YoutubeVideoAsset, MediaBundleAsset and ImageAsset. TextAsset should be created with Ad inline. You can check the YoutubeVideoAsset <https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v18/YoutubeVideoAsset> guide for more information.

From what I can see you can only upload to normal YouTube channels.
