I have cut and pasted a python code sample from Google API to access You Tube video viewing data of my companies videos.  The application will be scheduled and get usage data then write to a database on the server ( CENTOS ).  I have tried both Simple API and installed application types.  Is there a solid samle type that you know of or anyone else having issues with the API calls?  My latest error is that the JSON file is not organized correctly ( which I got from the API page unaltered ).
Most google api code snippet require the user to input their personal API KEY.  Please be sure you have appropriately updated the code snippet to use your api key.
