Repeated Error 400 when retrieving a YouTube transcript

Posted by Marcus V. on Jan 25, 2025 06:50 PM UTC Resolved

Without having changed anything, I’ve been receiving repeated Error 400 messages for about 2 days after entering a Youtube URL. Out of 10-15 attempts, only one is successful in retrieving the video transcript.
