Doesn't seem to be working with Youtube API 3 about ivy-youtube HOT 9 OPEN

Tried multiple times and I keep getting the error "symbol's value as variable is void: API KEY" where the API KEY is the one I got from following the steps in the description and replacing 'nil' with that API key.

@ragreenburg i also had that problem and what i did was type literally "API KEY" then save it , then reopen and now place the good API key and it works!!
Now i can search youtube video tags in my minibuffer! but when i press enter to play the video andddddd:
error in process sentinel: apply: Invalid function: "searching..." . this is what i get so tell me if that happends to you as well i hope @squiter could help us out or someone ! :)) cheers folks

I just had to prepend the API key with ' in M-x customize-variable ivy-youtube-key to save it, else I was getting this "void" issue as well.

@Kabouik so u are now able to do search and log into youtube? cause as i mention before i did that and everything fine but it stops in "searching..." and then it dies with process sentinel

Yes, with ivy-youtube version 20220818.2146 (installed in Guix using the guix-emacs channel):

Then all I did was M-x customize-variable ivy-youtube-key and paste my API v3 key after a ' character (which was not in the README here), and M-x customize-variable ivy-youtube-play-at and set it to use mpv.

It works beautifully so far, even after restarting my emacs daemon. However I think what would be even more awesome would be to use an approach similar to that of ytfzf, which does not require a Google account at all (and yet allows subscriptions from a list of channels URLs).

thanks man! glad people still using this and more so , this issue thread! :3

Just curious, did adding the ' before your API key solve your issue? In that post, that is not exactly what you did. If that works for you, then it would likely just require a little change in the README.
