Google app engine Youtube API

Question

Hi, We have a small YoutubeAPI mashup App hosted on Google App engine. From last friday; we have been getting yt:quota - too_many_recent_calls error from youtube even though we call once in an hour. We suspected Google App engine; and hosted our war to some hosting provider & it was Rock Solid & we are NOT getting those youtube quota limit errors (too_many_recent_calls). Unable to understand why we are getting that error only when we host on Google App engine . Are there any problems with Google App engine from the last few days?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks, -Satish

Answer 1

Have you followed these guidelines: http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/faq.html#quota

If not, your requests might not be seen as separate from all the other youtube api requests originating on appengine.

Answer 2

Hi, i have the same problem ! i have an app on appengine and youtubeAPI gives me quota limits errors since friday, although i submit the developer key on every request.

I think they have some problems with their server because the dashboard http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/dashboard/ gives me "Network or server error" and does not show api usage.
