Why am I getting quota errors when I upload my first video to YouTube using the new YouTube Data API (V3)?

I was part of the beta before launch, and I noticed the quota levels have increased quite a bit since the removal of the white list. I tried uploading to YouTube thinking I had the new quota, but my project's quota, created during the whitelist period, hasn't changed.

You need to manually increase your quota in the Google API Console. Here are the details:

  1. Log into the Google API console (https://code.google.com/apis/console/)
  2. Select the project you are using with the YouTube Data API
  3. Click on the Quotas Tab
  4. Click on the button marked "Set per-user limits..."
  5. Change the YouTube Data API units/second/user from "2.0" to "30,000"
  6. Click the "Update project"
  7. Run your app to upload a video and cry tears of joy when it works =)
