I am trying to pull data from Youtube Analytics API using R and have hit a wall. I'm getting a Status 403 error. I can confirm that:
I have tried logging out of all accounts, rebooting, re-authenticating and then logging into 1 account and it didn't work
I have tried using just the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.readonly scope (which is supposed to be correct) and all youtube analytics scopes are authorized within the app (each with their own credential key), it didn't work.
I have tried authenticating from different browsers, it didn't work
I can confirm that the call worked from https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/#p/youtubeAnalytics/v2/youtubeAnalytics.reports.query.
UPDATE
I have found the solution and updated the code to what is now working
scopes<- c('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.readonly')
endpoint<- oauth_endpoints('google')
youtubeapp<- oauth_app(appname='Youtube Analytics API',
key=client_id,
secret=client_secret)
youtube_token<- oauth2.0_token(
endpoint= oauth_endpoints('google'),
app = youtubeapp,
scope = scopes)
raw_data<- GET(paste("https://youtubeanalytics.googleapis.com/v2/reports?dimensions=",dimensions,"&endDate=",enddate,"&ids=",ids,"&metrics=",metrics,"&startDate=",startdate,sep=""),
config=youtube_token,content_type('application/json'))
content(raw_data, as= 'text')
I have figured out that access permissions are dictated by Youtube (not API IAM), so for example even though my personal email is owner of Brand account and API I still need to authenticate the call using the Brand Account or it won't work (I get 403 error for personal email). I tried switching my Youtube channel from Brand to personal and then my personal email worked. However, I need it under the brand account, so I have switched back.
I will leave this code up regardless because I found that good examples using R were lacking, I hope you find this useful.

I've been looking all the answers to this same question, but the solutions seem to be too old or not working...
I am using geocode from the ggmap library in R, I am using it to transform 100,000 addresses to a latitude and longitude...
Everything was working fine for 25,000 and suddenly I started getting the message
"This API project is not authorized to use this API" and now I'm unable to do anything anymore.
I enabled the geocoding API and the google cloud APIs in the google cloud platform..
I also changed the API key, it first said my key expired but after a while it started saying "This API project is not authorized to use this API" again..
As an additional note, my billing method is enabled and working fine
Why do you think this is happening? How to solve it?
well, after an hour or so it seems that it started working again... I assume considering that enabling the geocoding API was the only actual action I did and changing the API key, the only conclusion is that after you do that it's important to wait until all the changes are propagated or something.
I am creating a project to be able to share a Calendar among some users.
The strange thing is that when one of the users wants to connect, the following error appears telling him "This app isn't verified"
https://prnt.sc/p87wvm
I am not a programmer so it is difficult for me but I think I am doing everything right.
The only api that I am using is that of Google Calendar.
The email with which I am creating the Api is a #gmail.com
https://prnt.sc/p88o0g
I am not using any special scope that requires some type of verification.
I did not exceed any quota limit or anything like that.
And the send to verification button is disabled and tells me that my changes do not require verification
I want any user with a Gmail email to connect to the calendar
What i need to do??
For the doubts I have verified the domain thinking that it was that but it did not solve the problem either
We running a wordpress website use google oauth for third-party social login. (via WP Social Login plugin.) Former engineer is leave, and we cannot have past google account credential.
We face a problem shows:
Error 401
Error: deleted_client
The OAuth client was deleted.
but we can only see old client id and secret from website admin panel.
I wanna to know,
if we set up a new google oauth application id/secret, will it make user crash from login website?
Or, is it possible for us to restore/retrieve former application ownership and make it live again?
This happened to me when I was working on an Add-On (maybe not completely related to this question but similar). I mistakenly deleted a Client ID that I thought we weren't using.
How I solved it:
Created a new project in Google Cloud
Associated the Apps Script project (Add-on) to this new Google Cloud project
Then I re-associated the App Script project with my previous Google Cloud project
The previous step will re-compile, create and associate the Client ID to the App Script project. It will contain all settings from the Client ID manually created and associated with your project in the code.
Maybe this will give some light to anyone having a similar problem.

You have to reach google and they will help you out, this is the only solution you can do.
In my case, the simplest/only path (though certainly not ideal) ended up being to create a new Firebase project and start using that.
This of course can be problematic if you have a lot of data to move and/or a nontrivial data schema - say, with nested collections. For me, it was worth the effort to get unblocked from Sign-In suddenly failing to work.
... ah, OAuth fun
=======
If you are trying to make the new Client ID work .. though it's not a total solution, but after searching for a while, found this config option in Firebase console - where you enable Google Sign In.
So if you generate a new OAuth Client ID, update the ID & secret there.
After I did this, it went from a 401 error to a 400 mis_direct , which I think was step in the right direction.
Meteor can let a user authenticate that she controls a Twitter account without logging in:
Standalone OAuth client use
If you just want to authenticate to an Oauth service like Twitter,
Facebook, or Google without using Accounts – that is, if you don't
want to log the user in, you just want an OAuth token – you can use
the underlying service packages such as twitter, facebook, and google
directly.
But, I haven't been able to find any information on how to do this in the documentations. I tried reading the packages for twitter and oauth, but it seems you have to change the code to make a call to Twitter without creating an account.
There are some solutions to a similar problem, like using Accounts.onCreateUser(function(options, user), where you can hinder external services from making an account on your app. But, I want to let some twitter accounts create a normal account, and others to not be able to create one at all.
I tried adding a custom object to Twitter.requestCredential(options, callback) and to Meteor.loginWithTwitter(options, callback), but neither worked.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem of letting users verify their twitter accounts without creating an account (and without completely stopping people from creating an account with twitter)?
I inherited a program that was written with the old LinkedIn API, and I'm trying to migrate it to the new API. When I try to get the r_basicprofile permission, my oauth token works. However, when I try r_network or rw_nus, I get a response
invalid scope -- your application has not been authorized for
r_network.
Yet, when I go to www.linkedin.com/developer/apps/xxxx/auth, the boxes for r_network and rw_nus are checked.
I.e., A request to
https://www.linkedin.com/uas/oauth2/authorization?response_type=code&client_id=xxxxxx&scope=r_basicprofile&state=yyyy&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Fkalatublog.com%2Fwp-content%2Fmu-plugins%2Fimb-en%2Fhelpers%2Fsocial-connect%2Fapi%2Ffinalize.php%3Fapi%3Dlinkedin%26ch%zzzzz
works, but a request to
https://www.linkedin.com/uas/oauth2/authorization?response_type=code&client_id=xxxxxx&scope=r_network&state=yyyy&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Fkalatublog.com%2Fwp-content%2Fmu-plugins%2Fimb-en%2Fhelpers%2Fsocial-connect%2Fapi%2Ffinalize.php%3Fapi%3Dlinkedin%26ch%zzzzz
gives that error. What am I doing wrong?
As of May 15,
After the grace period expires, several REST API endpoints will no longer be available for general use. The following endpoints are the only ones that will remain available for use:
Profile API — /v1/people/~ `
Share API — /v1/people/~/shares
Companies API — /v1/companies/{id}
If your application is currently using any other API services (e.g. Connections, Groups, People Search, Invitation, Job Search, etc.) you will have to apply to become a member of a relevant Partner Program that provides the necessary API access to continue to leverage any of the endpoints that are not listed above.
It looks like linkedin no longer wants to share anything with their API. Creating a new app indicates that the only possible options are r_basicprofile, r_emailaddress, rw_company_admin, and w_share:
TLDR: they have locked down the API and restricted the usage to an extremely limited set of access points.
I did some more digging. The linkedin website is misleading. On my app linkedin page, it says that I'm approved for rw_nus and r_network, but on this page
https://developer.linkedin.com/support/developer-program-transition
it says those are no longer approved.
So the app home page in linkedin incorrectly said I had those permissions.
Heres the link if you want to Apply for Linkedin
