QUOTA EXCEED BLAZING FAST

[rapz]

Well title explains all, I even created like 10 apiKeys, but it burns hell fast.

Is there a work around or I need to apply for more quota?

How are you blowing through your quota so fast? Purely from chat or are you using your key for something else?

This library fetches live chat per specific milliseconds as yt.listen(1000)
If you get a Quota exceeded error, the time lag also increases, but you can increase the interval.

I have the s ame issue. And it makes no sense that update / 1 second would do 10000 queries over few minutes!
Please have a look at this issue because it's real and it's not related of how we set the refresh interval

anyone?? Anyone is willing to help here? @yuta0801?

TL;DR @iamisti i have the same problem with my own python-based youtube api wrapper. the issue seems to be that it costs 5 quota points to poll for messages on the youtube api :( this means you can do like 30mins of requests if you do 1 request/second before you hit your daily quota.

I haven't tried this library, rather I'm developing a python equivalent. Having the same issue, my youtube data api quota is disappearing very quickly, even with a reasonable polling interval of 1s (1s is also the polling interval that gets returned by most of my requests).

So I looked into the number of points it costs to request, see this post on stackoverflow.

There seem to be accounts of folks increasing their quotas in this support thread.

At the current point in time, consider turning to youtube scrapers (instead of the API) for low-latency interaction with youtube.
