Rendering Google Drive video files on my website using Google API key - wordpress

I am managing a Wordpress website that uses the Ultimate Video Player plugin in order to render video files that are stored in my Google Drive account.
Plugin details: https://www.webdesign-flash.ro/p/uvp/
In order to render the Google Drive video files, this plugin needs the video file sources to be created using the following format:
https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/[file_id]?alt=media&key=[api_key]&v=[.mp4/.mp3/etc]
Therefore I have created a Google API key that I’m using to build my video source links.
So here are my questions:
Are there any limitations as to how many times a video can be visualised on my website (how many hits it gets) using the GoogleAPI key created?
Is there a download quota that can be exceeded by rendering these video files on my website as described above?
Thank you very much for your assistance.

YouTube Data API for anonymous search

I am using the YouTube Data API v3.0 for a project querying many videos. I am looking to recapitulate how a search would be done on incognito mode in a browser, such that previous browsing history does not influence search results, but am trying to avoid searching manually on incognito mode. Hence, what I have done is created a new, unused Google account (since I have read that browsing data is associated with one's Google account 1) and used this for making a new YouTube API account and project. Then, I logged into this account to run the YouTube API in R. I am wondering if this is an acceptable method to recapitulate searching on incognito mode? If not, any recommendations? Would it be wise to clear browser history before running YouTube API in R - if so, which browser does YouTube API leverage - Chrome? I would really appreciate any assistance/advice, as I am very new to this and haven't been able to find any resources online for how "anonymous" YouTube API searches are or how exactly it works in the background. Thanks.
Edit: I do notice that running the YouTube API in R and pulling search results gives me different results versus when I perform the same search on incognito mode. Hence my question of whether YouTube API relies on your own Google account's stored data and/or your local browsing history (i.e., is YouTube API "incognito", in a sense?)

Google Drive API 1 billion queries per day limitation

I am managing a Wordpress website that uses the Ultimate Video Player plugin in order to render video files that are stored in my Google Drive account.
Plugin details: https://www.webdesign-flash.ro/p/uvp/
In order to render the Google Drive video files, this plugin needs the video file sources to be created using the following format:
https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/[file_id]?alt=media&key=[api_key]&v=[.mp4/.mp3/etc] (which is actually the download link for the specific file)
Therefore I have created a Google API key that I’m using to build my video source links.
In the Quotas section, I see that there is a limitation of 1 billion queries per day.
Does this mean that my video files can be played by my website’s users 1 billion times without exceeding the limit? Does watching an entire video (one full movie) just decrease this 1 billion limitation by 1? Or does the download quota decrease in a different way when it comes to watching videos?
Thank you!

Recommended way to check Google Analytics is running correctly on every page (wordpress)

I have a Wordpress site that has multiple plugins & that has somehow over time got the same Analytics tracking link (albeit slightly different implementations of it) in a few places on the site.
I want to remove one of them so the site 'touch wood' only uses a single tracking link throughout, is there a website scanning tool or desktop application that will scan an app and help me find each location of this tracking link?
Used the Google Tag Assistant for Chrome extension

APIs to get most downloaded Files details from Google Analytics

We need to track the count of File Downloaded through Google Analytics.
We found that, through below code we can track the file download :
Download my file
This works fine.
But, in our website we want to show most downloaded(top 5) files in a specific section.
So, can anyone suggest that is such API available in Google Analytics to retrive top N number of downloads? Or should we go with the Custom tracking implementation to achieve this feature?
Thanks in advance,

can we use google drive functionality in asp.net website?

I want to use google drive functionality in my website, like user can view, download and upload their google drive content after providing login credentials using my website.
Is this functionality possible? Feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.
You can embed google drive functionality in your website. For that google provides google drive api. For CMS like Joomla can be used for embedding it into your webpage. Here is one link which lists the steps for plugging in the Google drive api into your webpage:

Using Google Drive SDK for .NET, file-explorer could be developed which can connect Google Drive for saving and retrieving changes. Read start-up guide here and try hands-on DrEdit Web Application example which clearly demonstrates how to implement the same.
