Google Drive API call to insert Public Share permissions on Fusiontables causes Internal Error

Question

I have been trying to use the Google Drive API to make a Fusiontable publicly readable, and have not been able to get it to work. I am able to use the OAuth 2.0 Playground

Answer 1

Personally, the document I was attempting to add the permissions to had become invalid. This might also be an issue for someone else.
