Today I faced with following error - "Storage quota exceed", while creating new contact. I using Google Contacts API v3.0.
I didn't find any notes about "Storage quota" or API limits at contact docs - https://developers.google.com/google-apps/contacts/v3/
Google contacts doesn't have any api methods for work with storage quota.
I checked gmail quota for this user, and found a lot of free storage.
What does "Storage quota exceed" error mean?
How we can check available storage for user?
Is there any limits for Contacts creation via API?
Thanks.
Do you think it could be a possibility that you might be hitting your actual contact quota? Here is an article that explains Google Apps contacts limitations: http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1146409. Can you see if it's the case for you at all?
I only had around 2,000 contacts under "my contacts", but found thousands of doublicates of contacts under "other contacts". Try looking under "other contacts" and see if you have doublicates too.

We've discovered that old token with the Google Contacts scope https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/ can be used to access Google People API to access user' contacts. Migration guide provided by Google explains what new scopes Google People API needs, but doesn't explain whether the old token can be kept (https://developers.google.com/people/contacts-api-migration).
Keeping the old token is the preferred option because it doesn't require user interaction (user doesn't have to re-authorize his/her Google account on our system).
According to Google - on December 15th - 100% of Contacts API requests will return an error, but what will happen if requests are made to Google People API, but with the Google Contacts access scope?
It will work for reading and writing contacts and contact groups, but not "Other contacts" or directory data. See https://developers.google.com/people/contacts-api-migration#scope_migration
I am trying to get the remaining space of one's Google Contact.
This FAQ says every account has 20MB / 25000 contacts. But the People API does not have any REST resource to list one's storage.
How can I get the storage usage/space through People API?
Answer:
This information is not available to People API nor the deprecated Contacts API.
Workaround:
In order to see how many contacts you can still add, you can check how many contacts you currently have via people.connections.list and deduct that from the contact limit (25,000).

I'm having a problem with the 2 APIs above. Given the next scenario: I have 2 different google accounts. One that doesn't use Google+ and a second account that uses Google+
When using Contacts API on the first account that doesn't use Google+ I can see all my contacts:
GET /m8/feeds/contacts/<email>/full
Same for the second account that uses Google+.
When I'm using People API for the first account that doesn't use Google+, I'm getting an empty response (actually I'm getting just the next sync token:
GET https://people.googleapis.com/v1/people/me/connections
With the next scope:
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/contacts
Returns:
{
"nextSyncToken": "CMe6...."
}
The same call for the second account (with Google+) works like a charm
The only difference between the 2 accounts is Google+, is it possible that People API only works for accounts with Google+? Or is it something else that I'm missing
I found the difference between the 2 APIs and it has nothing to do with the fact that one of the accounts is connected to Google+ or not
People API will only fetch the contacts that are under the account "My contacts" contacts, while Contacts API will also fetch the other contacts lists ("Other contacts", "Most contacts", ...)
The People API is the newer version.
From Google APIs related to People API page:
The Google Contacts API will be deprecated in the future. The People API is the recommended replacement for apps that read contact data.
It is also important to note that the People API does in fact allow the developer to use "other contacts" just like Contacts API did. In addition, when migrating you should not have to re-ask for user consent to the following:
https://www.google.com/m8/feeds
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/contacts
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/contacts.readonly

I basically just copy/pasted most of this stuff but hopefully, some people find this helpful as I too was curious to find these answers :)
I've looked everywhere to a solution for this, and I guess I've missed something obvious:
My web application (Civicrm 4.6.17) allows me to insert a Google GeoLocation API key for it's mapping and GeoLocation services. I've gone through the process described by Google GeoCoding Developer's guide:
setup a project,
got an API key,
Linked that key to my domain(s)
Even enabled billing for Pay as you go in case of over-limits.
Each step appeared to be successful. We have a project, we have an API key, we have billing enabled for it... all of this is reflected in the Google developer's console.
However, while we are processing 100s of GeoLocation requests per day, none are appearing in my project's Quota information. And we are hitting the 2,500 complementary limit.
What can I do to find out why the API key isn't linking to our Project?
Thanks for your help!
While the Google API has an unauthenticated limit of 2,500 requests per day per IP, using an API key currently gives a quota of 100,000 requests per day.
CiviCRM was not using the API key, but I've just opened an issue to address that here: CRM-18830: Google Geocoding - use SSL, restore API key.
Once that fix is merged (assuming it is), you should be able to geocode a larger number of addresses.
The Google Licensing Manager API, https://developers.google.com/google-apps/licensing/, can be used to assign Drive licenses to users in an Apps domain. How can you retrieve the amount of storage a given user is actually using and not just what their total quota is?
This can't be done in the Licensing Manager API, it only retrieves information about the actual storage licences. The amount of quota a user has actually used can be found with about call in the Drive API, documented at https://developers.google.com/drive/v2/reference/about/get. Specifically the quotaBytesUsed property.
