* description: string, becomes the description of the youtube video.

* tags: list of strings, becomes the keyword tags of the youtube video.

These category ids can be obtained from the youtube web API via the link https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videoCategories?part=snippet&regionCode={two-character-region}&key={YOUR_API_KEY}. You will need to enable a browser API key as part of your project to discover different categoryId's.
