I faced the same problem when hitting a YouTube API through postman.

Url - 

 https://content.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?id=H61xC_BUros&part=snippet%2CcontentDetails%2Cstatistics&key=

Error faced - 

{
    "error": {
        "errors": [
            {
                "domain": "usageLimits",
                "reason": "ipRefererBlocked",
                "message": "The request did not specify any referer. Please ensure that the client is sending referer or use the API Console to remove the referer restrictions.",
                "extendedHelp": "https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials?project=292824132082"
            }
        ],
        "code": 403,
        "message": "The request did not specify any referer. Please ensure that the client is sending referer or use the API Console to remove the referrer restrictions."
    }
}

Working Solution -

Add the following (in headers when hitting through postman)
