Steps to reproduce

After following the authentication flow and get/set the bearer token, I'm trying to change a thumbnail of specific video. I'm using Laravel too.

Code example

// After flow of authentication....this is my code:
$service = new Google_Service_YouTube($this->client);

$videoId = "XG96bA9Q9OE";
$newThumbnailPath = storage_path('app/thumbs/1/test1.jpg');

$response = $service->thumbnails->set($videoId, [
    'mimeType' =>  'image/jpeg',
    'data' =>  file_get_contents($newThumbnailPath)
]);

dd($response);

Response error:

{
  "error": {
    "code": 403,
    "message": "The thumbnail can't be set for the specified video. The request might not be properly authorized.",
    "errors": [
      {
        "message": "The thumbnail can't be set for the specified video. The request might not be properly authorized.",
        "domain": "youtube.thumbnail",
        "reason": "forbidden",
        "location": "videoId",
        "locationType": "parameter"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Making sure to follow these steps will guarantee the quickest resolution possible.

Thanks!
