google-api-python-client doesn't work with developer key

I can't get this script working. I replace the DEVELOPER_KEY with the API key I have created from Google APIs. I would really appreciate if someone can help me out. The script is from this page: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/code_samples/python#search_by_keyword

#!/usr/bin/python

from apiclient.discovery import build
from apiclient.errors import HttpError
from oauth2client.tools import argparser


# Set DEVELOPER_KEY to the API key value from the APIs & auth > Registered apps
# tab of
#   https://cloud.google.com/console
# Please ensure that you have enabled the YouTube Data API for your project.
DEVELOPER_KEY = "REPLACE_ME"
YOUTUBE_API_SERVICE_NAME = "youtube"
YOUTUBE_API_VERSION = "v3"

youtube = build(YOUTUBE_API_SERVICE_NAME, YOUTUBE_API_VERSION, developerKey=DEVELOPER_KEY)

I get the following error message.

Traceback (most recent call last):

If you want to use google-api-python-client version 1.6 do the following. Go to https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials. Select create credentials, choose service account key, choose App Engine default service account, download the JSON file and put it in your project folder. Then set the it as the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS.

os.environ["GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS"] = "./google_application_credentials.json"

It is an issue with version 1.6 of google-api-python-client. Using the previous version (1.5.5) should solve the problem.
