Yep. Started recently when i tried to upload my first horizon clip. It was fine for the past few years.
Had this problem a couple of days ago, a friend of mine still has it.
I solved it this way:
Uninstalled YouTube, redownloaded it, opened the app and logged in and was asked to link the accounts, did it. Tried to share a video, worked.
No problems since then.
I was having the same issue but it went away. I remember going into the Settings on the PS4 and looking at linked services. I can't remember what I did to the YouTube settings in there but it seemed to fix it.Anyone else having issue uploading videos to youtube via the share app on PS4?
Keeps asking me to log into my google account over and over. Any quick fixes?
edit*
Im have the PS4 Pro, and Im on the beta 4.50 firmware

I dont have Youtube install on my PS4, Im just trying to upload to it via the Share app
Maybe I removed the link entirely, and then started from scratch?Only thing in the settings is to Linked the account. Which does but once I attempt to upload the loop starts over

It happened to me some days ago when I tried uploading a Horizon Zero Dawn clip.
I was on 4.50 beta on a Ps4 pro. To fix it, I went back to the normal firmware (was 4.07)
Have you tried it since the official release? I'm out of town right now so I can't check
Posting here too since I'm also getting this issue.
Doing some online search, it seems like this has been a thing since 2014 or so. Don't know if this is an issue on Sony's or Google's side, but either way, incredibly laughable and pathetic that such a basic thing has been broken for so long (even if it gets solved temporarily sometimes).
I wanted to upload a Horizon clip and now it doesn't work for me. I have the re-login loop. I didn't have any issue on the previous firmware.
Hey JareBear, try this thread, where a ShareFactory developer posts about some upload issues:

I don't get the re-login loop now, I was able to upload a random Disc Jam video but still not Horizon Zero Dawn gameplay.
Happened to me as well, and this started recently.
I think we all need to tweet @askplaystation about it because they seem to think it's a strange issue and don't realize it's a big one.
Ok. I will begin doing this.
And you're right. There are a couple small threads about it on the official PS support forum, and a couple other convos about it spread out here or there but nothing big enough to be taken seriously by Sony, I guess?

Yeah no, they told me the same through twitter but it didn't work. It comes and go tho, sometimes it fixes by unlinking from PS Network, sometimes uninstalling YouTube, sometimes signing off, sometimes unlinking from Google, some times deleting YouTube and sharing without installing it again.
Anyway, there must be an issue here, I've been sharing videos since day one and since YouTube was a thing and suddenly a week ago I have this problem.
Edit: Link yo my tweet and their answer.
For me it has appeared after the firmware update, but this could just be a correlation.
I just never had issues before except maybe 2 times or so that an upload didn't work and I had to clear the upload queue.
What I know for sure is that I didn't touch any Google or Youtube settings between it working and it not working.
Until today I didn't have the YouTube app installed. Maybe at the start to test but not for the vast majority of the 3+ years I had a PS4.I am wondering if there is some correlation between the YouTube app on the PS4 and this issue. I just went into my Youtube account settings and removed PSN from my list of apps. Hoping to "restart the process" clean
I've been having the same log in loop issue... Until tonight!
I think this is a Google (YOUTUBE) problem and not the fault of the PS4 or Sony. It seems Google's security systems, are protecting our accounts from being hijacked. Google will email you when a new device tries to access your account, and will restrict access to your account from that device until the user responds to the email.
Look in your email inbox (or junk folder) for a email from Google titled "New sign-in", this email is generated by Google when it detects a log in from a unknow device.
The following text is from the email.
Don't recognize this activity?
Review your recently used devices now. <- click the link in your email, to be taken to "Recently used devices" page>
Why are we sending this? We take security very seriously and we want to keep you in the loop on important actions in your account.
We were unable to determine whether you have used this browser or device with your account before. This can happen when you sign in for the first time on a new computer, phone or browser, when you use your browser's incognito or private browsing mode or clear your cookies, or when somebody else is accessing your account.
Best,
The Google Accounts team
The link in you email, will take you to your google account, "Recently used devices" page. There you'll see some details about the device (PS4) trying to access your account. You'll be able to choose "YES, THAT WAS ME" or "NO, SECURE ACOUNT". Choose "YES, THAT WAS ME", allowes your PS4 access to your YOUTUBE account. Give it a few mintues, and try uploading a video from your PS4 again. You'll need to log in again, but this time, you'll only be asked to do it once, and the video will start uploading right away. Ingoring the email, will keep your PS4 from accessing your account, as Google assumes if you're not responding, you aren't the one trying to access your YOUTUBE account.
The reason for the repeating endless login loop, is that email was going ingored, and Google was rejecting the login, promoting another attempt. I notice after three tries tonight, I had three emails from Google. Well that was there was the problem. I hope this help, if it does please spread the word, to anyone else having trouble.
OHHHH I've got those emails but didn't pay attention to them and I'm not receiving them anymore either. :O
But have you been able to upload?I created a test account and tried logging in to it on my PS4. I got the email on that account, clicked the link, and was able to confirm that the deivce was me.
