title: Quota Limits For You-Tube Data API V3?
body: <p>The new Google Developers console shows the following limit for YouTube Data API v3: </p>
  
  <p><strong>PER USER LIMIT  2 requests/second/user</strong></p>
  
  <p>Whereas the old Google Developers console shows:</p>
  
  <p><strong>2.0 units/second/user</strong></p>
  
  <p>(i.e. one is requests per second, the other is units per second which are quite different).</p>
  
  <p>From - <a href="https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/determine_quota_cost" rel="nofollow">https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/determine_quota_cost</a> - the Search request appears to have a cost of 200 units, if the latter case above is correct would this mean we can only make one of these requests every 100 seconds?</p>
  
  <p>This does seem to tie in more closely with what we are experiencing which is regular occurrences of the following 403 forbidden error after paging through only a few results from a YouTube search:</p>
  
  <pre><code>"error": {
  "errors": [
  {
  "domain": "youtube.quota",
  "reason": "quotaExceeded",
  "message": "Quota Exceeded"
  }
  ],
  "code": 403,
  "message": "Quota Exceeded"
  }
  }
  </code></pre>
