Video uploaded through YouTube Data API is becoming private - php

Question

I have tried uploading a video to YouTube channels using by the YouTube Data API, by composer:
"require": {
"google/apiclient": "^2.7",
"hybridauth/hybridauth": "~3.4.0",
"guzzlehttp/guzzle": "^7.0"
}
The video is uploaded successfully, but YouTube marks every video uploaded into it as private. Does anybody know how to fix this scenario?
public function upload_video_on_youtube($id, $arr_data)
{
$result_data = array();
$channel_id = $id;
$uploaded = false;
$stopper = 0;
while ($uploaded == false && $stopper == 0) {
$arr_data['summary'] = $this->getrandomstring(10);
$arr_data['title'] = $this->getrandomstring(10);
$client = new Google_Client();
$arr_token = $this->getAccessToken($channel_id);
if ($arr_token['error'] == false) {
$res = array();
$accessToken = array(
'access_token' => $arr_token['access_token']
);
$client->setAccessToken($accessToken);
$service = new Google_Service_YouTube($client);
$video = new Google_Service_YouTube_Video();
$videoSnippet = new Google_Service_YouTube_VideoSnippet();
$videoSnippet->setDescription($arr_data['summary']);
$videoSnippet->setTitle($arr_data['title']);
$video->setSnippet($videoSnippet);
$videoStatus = new Google_Service_YouTube_VideoStatus();
$videoStatus->setPrivacyStatus('unlisted');
$video->setStatus($videoStatus);
try {
$response = $service->videos->insert(
'snippet,status',
$video,
array(
'data' => file_get_contents($arr_data['video_path']),
'mimeType' => 'video/*',
'uploadType' => 'multipart'
)
);
if (isset($response->id)) {
$video_id = $response->id;
$res['error'] = false;
$res['response'] = $video_id;
array_push($result_data, $res);
$uploaded = true;
return $result_data;
}
} catch (Exception $e) {
if (401 == $e->getCode()) {
// echo ($arr_token['email'] . " Youtube Access token expired");
$refresh_token = $this->get_refersh_token($channel_id);
$client = new GuzzleHttp\Client(['base_uri' => 'https://accounts.google.com']);
$response = $client->request('POST', '/o/oauth2/token', [
'form_params' => [
"grant_type" => "refresh_token",
"refresh_token" => $refresh_token,
"client_id" => $arr_token['client_id'],
"client_secret" => $arr_token['client_secret'],
],
]);
$data = json_decode($response->getBody());
$data->refresh_token = $refresh_token;
$this->update_access_token($channel_id, json_encode($data));
$uploaded = false;
} elseif (403 == $e->getCode()) {
// echo ($arr_token['email'] . ' Youtube channel quota exceeded');
$channel_id = $channel_id + 1;
$uploaded = false;
}
}
} else if ($arr_token['error'] == true) {
$res['error'] = true;
$res['response'] = "Your Daily Upload Quota is Exceeded";
array_push($result_data, $res);
$stopper = 1;
return $result_data;
}
}
}

If you check the documentation for videos.insert you will see that all videos that are uploaded by apps that have not gone through the verification process will be set to private.
Once you go through the verification process you will be able to set your videos to public
This is an update after some clarity from Google.
At the top of the Video.insert page you will see it states.
Apps that dont need to be verified can just go though an audit is not verification, these are two different things. You need to apply for an audit. YouTube API Services - Audit and Quota Extension Form
