Youtube API does loadVideoById(videoId) affect quota - youtube-api

Not sure based on the docs whether the method loadVideoById(videoId) incurs any quota cost.
Would this equal a one quota cost or not?

How to Play a Playlist using YouTube JavaScript API
The first answer by jbx, does this answer require any quota (playing a playlist, no searching).

You probably would not affect your quota, if you are just using Youtube IFrame API. This would only add up to your quota if you will be using Youtube Data API (to get such as videos, playlists, and channels), Youtube Analytics and Youtube Reporting.
These APIs will be needing API Key or OAuth 2.0 client IDs to function (Credentials, access, security, and identity).
A related SO question also said, that "there is no API key needed and no quota limit specified in any documents or developer console."
Hope this helps!

YouTube API: Costs for a higher quota?

I need a higher daily quota for the Google API / YouTube API.
So I want to sign up for the free trial, but I can't seem to find any costs for that in the Google Cloud: https://cloud.google.com/pricing/list
Am I missing a major part here?
I had the same question and I didn't find a price list. When you enable a Youtube Data API in your google console you can go to section quotas for this API and set quota to value from 1 to 1 million. If you need more, you should do a manual request to Google through filling a special form, accessible by a link.

YouTube Analytics API Quota Extension Application?

In the past I've been able to access an online application for a quota extension to the YouTube Analytics API. Has this link been removed? I can no longer get to the application page.

You're right. There seems no way on to increase YouTube Analytics API quota (someone correct me if I'm wrong). Unlike any other Google APIs, YouTube Analytics API doesn't have an option to request for more quota in the Quota tab of your project in the Google APIs Console.
However, as stated in this thread, if you get an error and thought that it is related to quota limit, start an exponential backoff and keep trying again until the call succeeds.
