Hi, i’ve got several errors on my zaps using Youtube connection :

The app returned "The request cannot be completed because you have exceeded your <a href="/youtube/v3/getting-started#quota">quota</a>.".

Have you any idea what’s going on ?

Hey @Ambler! :)

I can see @ChrisM reached out to our Support team about this and was added to a bug report regarding this quota exceeded error. I’ve added you as another user being affected by this issue.

I can’t give any estimates as to when the quota limits will be increased but we’ll be sure to send out an email notification to you as soon as it is.

Hey there. I am having this issue as well. I did a bit of research and it seems that YouTube changed their API, which now requires users to request an API key via the Google Developer Console and send it alongside the request to make more then 1 call per hour. However I did not yet figure out how to properly send this API key via Webhook request. I believe this major change to YouTube’s API is the key to making it work again.

 

Sincerely
Robin H.

Please add me as well.

Also having the same issue. One recording from Zoom uploaded three days ago. We’ve had only two recordings since then, neither of which uploaded (exceeded quota error).

I’d also like to be added to the list of affected users.

I have the same problem. IFTTT solved the problem by increasing the quota.
I hope zapier solves the problem quickly.

Hi @ChrisM 

Check out the referenced link: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/getting-started#calculating-quota-usage

Zapier cannot be customized by the user. Zapier has to solve it.
