YouTube Analytics by MAQ Software - API connection issue

Hi

 

I have just installed the new YouTube Analytics app by MAQ Software and I have an issue connecting to data via API. I have created the API key & creds in the Google API console. I can see the API is properly configured / green light. I am an owner of the channel I wish to get data from - a company channel (I have all the owner rights in YT CMS). In the console, i can see the call coming but 100% is in error. 

 

Here is the error:

 

Something went wrong
There was an error when processing the data in the dataset.
Please try again later or contact support. If you contact support, please provide these details.
Data source error: {"error":{"code":"ModelRefresh_ShortMessage_ProcessingError","pbi.error":{"code":"ModelRefresh_ShortMessage_ProcessingError","parameters":{},"details":[{"code":"Message","detail":{"type":1,"value":"The credentials provided for the Web source are invalid.

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks

Have you check if the key has expired? Also, if this issue persists, I would suggest you contact with MAQ with link below:

Hi there,

 

I seem to have the same issue.

My best guess would be, that the generated URL to connect to the API is using your default Channel ID instead of ours.

 

This is just my guess from actually opening the URL given in the sign in screens of your app.
