At the bottom of the Youtube Data API Quota Extension Application, this is what I see. Has anyone had this same experience and, if so, is there a workaround?:

I want to get the subscriber list of some YouTube accounts, about 100k accounts.
tokens are enough now, and I tried get method like this:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/subscriptions?key=xxx&channelId=xxx&maxResults=50&part=snippet
but the quota limits my crawling speed, how can i get rid of this limitation?
The YouTube api has a very limited quota to begin with. You will need to aplly for a quota extension from the Google developer console under the library tab and search for the YouTube Data api.
You will need to be pasent. It takes time to get a quota extension.
For some reason, I started getting 403 errors on my app(in development), the errors message was
Access Not Configured. YouTube Data API has not been used in project XXXXXXXX....
This is weird because I was using the API for the last month or so with the same project, and didn't do any changes.
After looking in the project settings I noticed that the daily quota was reduced to 0.
The only thing concerning the API that I did was to request a quota increase in order to keep developing(The default quota stalled the dev on the search functionality of my app), but I didn't get any answer concerning that request other than asking for info, no warnings, or anything really.
I'm pretty sure that my app complies with the Terms of service, so I don't think that is the reason.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I would check your email it sounds like your project was disabled. Have you been though the verification process?
YouTube reserves the right to disable or curtail your access to, or use of, specific YouTube API Services if your API Project has been inactive for 90 consecutive days. For example, YouTube could revoke your API Credentials, or reduce (or eliminate) your API Project's quotas for specific YouTube API Services. If your API Client's quota is reduced or eliminated, you may reapply for quota or a quota extension, and YouTube will review that application based on YouTube’s determination of your expected use of the YouTube API Services.
I would check your email. I have several emails about projects i no longer use which have had the quota reduced to 0 over the last few weeks.
How to reset
No matter what the clients you have now are not going to work you need to reset the project.
Delete all client ids you have now.
deactivate then reactivate all APIs you need
Create new client ids keys
If you're trying to use an old project, then it's not gonna work. You'll have to create a new project.
Create a new project.
Enable Youtube API for it. (Your quota will be reset to 10,000/day)
Get new API key for it.
Use the new credentials.
I'm trying to figure out wheter it is possible to have a private video on youtube that I could share with particular Google Accounts through API.
I would have a separate web application that would have a Google signup and after signup I would enable that Google Account to watch my private video.
Ideally I would also want to embed the video to the web application (but I think I can do this rather easily if I'm an owner of the video).
Ispossible to have a private video on YouTube that I could share with particular google accounts through API.
No you cant directly share a video with another user like you could a file on google drive.
You could show the video on your own site, but I am not sure its something I would want to try. The thing is being that its a private video you and you alone have access to see it. Your going to have to authenticate your application and get a refresh token back which will allow you to access the account and the videos on the account.
Then you will be able to use that refresh token to get an access token to show other people the video via your website. The problem you will have is if the refresh token stops working (rarely happens but can happen) you will have to authenticate it again before your solution will work.
Note: Service accounts don't work with YouTube API. So don't bother going down that road.
If you know the ID of a video, you can access it. You can share the ID,or an embedded link with someone.
The api only hides the info, not blocks it. So you would need to hold the info elsewhere for referencing.
So as long as you know the id's of the related video's, you can do what you want with them.
However, if you are wanting to monetise them on the side, I would recommend against it. Best to read the user agreement you have with YouTube.
I have a complete source code of a project using you tube data API v3, when i try to publish my app its continuously rejected due to copyright issue. (i m using someone else channel link),
here is what it says :-
I reviewed your app, and had to reject it because it violates our device and network abuse policy. If you submitted an update, the previous version of your app is still live on Google Play.
Here’s how you can submit your app for another review:
Your app shouldn’t access or use a service or API in a manner that violates its terms of service. For example, make sure your app doesn’t download, monetize, or access YouTube videos in a way that violates the YouTube Terms of Service.
Read through the Device and Network Abuse policy for more details and examples.
now i want to change my code from You tube data API to daily motion API, and i need your help.
Or if someone has any solution how can i get my app approved using someone Else's channel. ?
Is there any way to get the requests quota of Google Calendar API by calling some API method in code?
I know that I can see the total and remaining requests count on the project dashboard. But, I want to fetch it in my application and display it to admin user on a web page for convenience so that he doesn't need to sign in to Google to view the quota.
Thanks
No there is no way to see how much of the Quota you have used on any of the Google APIs. I normally keep a running count of requests for display to the user. But there is no way to check what the over all quota usage is for the application.
I have done send feed back from the Developer console several times asking them to add an API. There are cloud monitoring APIs but nothing for monitoring quota usage.
