Tonight I noticed everything is back to normal. I didn't generate new API Keys, I just waited. Smile

fwiw...

was getting the exceeded quota message, googled the issue, which led me to this very helpful/short video that shows how to create new credentials, it's much more user friendly than the documentation i've seen on the subject:

removed due to piracy content

I can confirm, it's working again for me too! I can finally view playlists and channels again.

@aeneas1 - unfortunately whilst that video may be useful, the installation of Kodi being used is stuffed full of banned addons (wiki) and so linking to it here is not allowed due to our piracy policy (wiki). The link has therefore been removed.

just goes to show how naive i am when it comes to kodi, didn't even notice the stuff in the vid that you referred to, for me kodi )plex, emby, etc.) is just a front-end for my movie library, just install the program, scrape, and add a skin or two for the heck of it, have never drilled down to the "illegal/banned" side of kodi, altho i guess this is a draw for more than a few... anyway, thanks for taking down the vid, too bad tho because it made the youtube api thing a snap.

No longer works. When you choose other windows and user data you get an error

I'm getting the same error:
"The request failed because one of the field of the resource is invalid."

Such an error only if you make the keys master. Add keys manually, everything works.
Through Credentials and choose type of computers.

What do you mean by "add keys manually"? Where can I do that?
And what does "you make the keys master" mean?

Currently I have 1 API Key, but no OAuth 2.0 Client IDs due to the error mentioned above.
I entered the API key and the API-Id (now called "Project-ID" by Google) and left the API secret blank on the "YouTube Add-on API Configuration" page.
When I try to logon to my Youtube account in the Add-on there's a pop-up window saying that I have to activate to 2 apps in order to make Youtube work correctly, when I click on "OK" it tells me to go to google.com/devices to enter a code - but there's no way to add this code, the page just displays some devices on which I'm logged in.

Edit: I'm in the same boat like here:

@Bobby Blixberg
When trying to create an OAuth credential please try selecting application type "Desktop App", that worked for me.

**Bobby Blixberg** · 2020-07-02, 11:29

@RPi4
Thanks, that did it!
At least I'm able to search for videos and watch them, but sign-in still doesn't work because I still get no prompt where to enter the code on https://google.com/devices.

For those having issues with API creation, I've updated the wiki and replaced the images with a video of the complete process (6 minutes).

edit: NOTE: youtube.com/activate and google.com/device go to the same place

**Bobby Blixberg** · 2020-07-02, 17:42

Okay, it's youtube.com/activate, not google.com/devices...
Will you update the add-on accordingly?

**anxdpanic** · (This post was last modified: 2020-07-02, 17:53 by anxdpanic.)

@Bobby Blixberg
They are the same thing, I just have a habit of typing youtube.com/activate from using it for so long.

edit: I've added a note to the wiki and the original post. https://github.com/jdf76/plugin.video.yo...y-creation
