I am working on an Android app that records video and allows the user to upload it directly to YouTube using the YouTube Data API v3.
I have set up my app in Google's API console. Under services, I have YouTube Data API v3 enabled. Under API access I have both a section "Client ID for installed applications" (including a Client ID and Client Secret) and a section "Simple API Access" -> "Key for Android apps (with certificates)" (which includes an API key and an "Android Apps" section, which is left blank for now, i.e. allow all Android apps, but I have tried it with setting my android key).
I have based my code from a number of places, primarily:
https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/code_samples/java#upload_a_video
and
The upload initialises OK, starts the AsyncTask, but then I get an IOException thrown saying:
{
"code": 403,
"errors": [
{
"domain": "usageLimits",
"message": "Access Not Configured",
"reason": "accessNotConfigured"
}
],
"message": "Access Not Configured"
}
Similar SO posts suggest it is to do with my Google API console settings, but I can't find anything wrong. Any suggestions? I wonder if it is because I am not providing my client ID or secret anywhere ...
Thanks.
My code runs from a fragment containing a list of videos. The relevant sections are:

The answer provided by @Ibrahim was almost correct for me. What I needed to do was edit my API configuration. However, it was not the "Simple API access" section I needed to edit, it was the settings after clicking the button "Create another client Id".
Then I could select "Installed application" -> "Android". After inputting my package name and SHA1, and waiting 15 minutes, my app worked as expect. I also have the "Simple API access" set up. I am not sure if you need both or not.
