# YouTube Login Has Expired

{% hint style="danger" %}
Your login session has expired, so the broadcast cannot be started. Please try logging in again.
{% endhint %}

This guide explains the cause of the current error that occurred during your live streaming.

​

***

To stream to YouTube, the PRISM app relies on features provided by YouTube. These features are known as YouTube Open APIs, which are used by third-party apps like PRISM.&#x20;

To use these APIs, the PRISM app requires your YouTube login information. Through the login process, PRISM obtains the necessary permissions to access YouTube’s API services.

However, your current login session has expired, which means the PRISM app can no longer access YouTube’s features. As a result, your live stream could not be started.

To resolve this issue, please log in to your YouTube account again. Once you’ve successfully logged in, try starting the live stream again.
