Youtube API does loadVideoById(videoId) affect quota

Not sure based on the docs whether the method loadVideoById(videoId) incurs any quota cost.

Would this equal a one quota cost or not?

Also, in this post:

How to Play a Playlist using YouTube JavaScript API

The first answer by jbx, does this answer require any quota (playing a playlist, no searching).

You probably would not affect your quota, if you are just using Youtube IFrame API. This would only add up to your quota if you will be using Youtube Data API (to get such as videos, playlists, and channels), Youtube Analytics and Youtube Reporting.

enter image description here

These APIs will be needing API Key or OAuth 2.0 client IDs to function (Credentials, access, security, and identity).

A related SO question also said, that "there is no API key needed and no quota limit specified in any documents or developer console."

Hope this helps!
