Intro to YouTube API and cost based quota.
Answer from Linda Lawton - DaImTo on Stack OverflowI am currently using the Google API (specifically, YouTube data API) for a few projects I am working on. These are solely for myself and I never intend other people to use it (will never publish anything).
For now, I added myself as a test user, but the 10,000 daily quota is not enough.
I do not mind paying for an additional quota, but a few 100,000 is what I need for my goals. I am wondering, what is the best way to set up such a system?
TLDR: developing app solely for myself using YT Data API, need more daily quota, do not mind paying for it - how to set this up?

The screenshot says it all: You are already using the maximum allowed daily API calls allowed by your subscription plan. If you still need more than that, you need to pay for an upgrade of your subscription.
Is there any way to increase the YouTube API v3 Quota Limits? - Stack Overflow
Has anyone increased their YouTube Data V3 API quota before? What's the highest quota you have been granted?
Youtube data API quota increase
But I don't have any of that, since I am just developing a simple app, which is not even published yet.
If you're not developing an app that uses the Youtube API for something meaningful, they aren't going to give you an increased quota. If simple apps for personal use or hobby-scale release were intended to be eligible for a quota increase, they wouldn't waste time with quotas in the first place.

Yes, there is an elaborate form for applying for higher quota.
It is linked in the developer console for example at: http://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/youtube-json.googleapis.com/quotas?project=YOURPROJECTID
The form starts off with some statements:
This Application will ask you detailed questions about:
(i) your business, (ii) your use of each YouTube API (current and proposed use, as applicable), and (iii) each of your website or software application that uses or will use YouTube API(s) (each an “API Client”).
This application also requires you to submit screenshots and design documents relating to your API Client(s) and your use of YouTube API(s). If you do not have these ready, please apply once these are available.
We will strive to respond to your application as soon as possible, provided that, all required supporting materials are submitted and sufficient, and all questions are thoroughly answered.
Note: Please do not apply for more quota unless you are actually close to hitting your current limit.
There is a Form but they do not approve extra quota at the moment. Maybe in the future. Best would be to contact your Google Account Manager (If you have one assigned)

I've currently got 100k quota (received an increase). But I can't really scale it at the moment because costs are high for quota (e.g posting a comment is 50 unitsx20 comments day = 100 users). I'd like to know if anyone has received any quota beyond this, thanks!
