I recently received an email from YouTube about an oauth change. Here's the 
gist of the email:
1. As of July 19th 2019, a YouTube scope we are using ("../auth/youtube") 
is classified as sensitive.
2. That means we need to get our app verified.
3. If our app is not verified by August 18, 2019, it will be classified as 
unverified.

Fair enough.

However, when I go to verify our app, there are a few warning messages that 
concern me.

They are concerning because we are actively using this scope in production 
and rely on it. The warning messages make it sound like the scope will stop 
working and our app will become unverified as soon as we submit the 
verification form.

On the oauth consent screen 
<https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials/consent>, I've 
added the YouTube scope we need ("../auth/youtube"). Now I see three 
warning messages:
1. A message next to the new scope that says "Use of this API scope will be 
restricted until it is approved"
2. A message next to our domain that says "Use of this domain will be 
restricted until it is approved".
3. A generic warning that says "Because you've added a sensitive scope, 
your consent screen requires verification by Google before it's published".

Here's an image <https://ibb.co/KNtsZLB> of these 3 warnings.

To me, this sounds like our app is going to break once we submit it for 
verification.

In the email from YouTube, they said the app won't become unverified until 
August 18, 2019. But these warnings make me think otherwise.

Is our app going to become unverified as soon as we submit it? If so, how 
do we avoid that?

Thanks in advance!

Dan
