Quota issue in YouTube Data API V3

votes

When we created 3 or more live streams in less than a minute, we got the message below and the YouTube Data API was unavailable for a day.

"User requests exceeded the rate limit."

I know the above message is a quota problem, but I don't know how to increase the quota.

We use the following YouTube Data API to create and terminate broadcasts.

    youtube.api.v3.V3DataLiveStreamService.List
    youtube.api.v3.V3DataLiveBroadcastService.Insert
    youtube.api.v3.V3DataLiveBroadcastService.Bind
    youtube.api.v3.V3DataLiveBroadcastService.Transition

    Total number of queries: 4 queries, Total costs: 1701 costs

It is known as quota per query in 'YouTube Data API v3 > Quota' in GCP Console, and as cost per API in 'YouTube Data API (v3) - Quota Calculator'.

How do I apply for a quota?

According to YouTube Data API Overview about quota:

Note: If you reach the quota limit, you can request additional quota by completing the Quota extension request form for YouTube API Services.
