Your API key might be OK, but the API call did not succeed or the response was not entirely expected. Technical error: forbidden

So, I have a blog that I have not done much with for a while and came back to it recently and get this error when testing the key:

Your API key might be OK, but the API call did not succeed or the response was not entirely expected. Technical error: forbidden

I have verified that the API key is correct and active. I'm not sure if this error is a problem or not, but am reporting it in case it is since I can't seem to find any information about this error. Maybe something changed?

afraid this is the reply from the YouTube API, see https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/errors @IITFA , maybe you have some restrictions set on the key? if not try generating a new key maybe?
