Google Sheets API 404 error: "Requested Entity Was Not Found" Uncaught Google\Service\Exception

first let me say i apologize if this is an easy solution, i've never used google api or anything similar, as well as i'm new to php

i'm currently trying to read a spreadsheet using google sheets api and just print it out. i think everything looks fine, but when i run it, it gives me this error:

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Google\Service\Exception: {

"error": { "code": 404, "message": "Requested entity was not found.", "errors": [ { "message": "Requested entity was not found.", "domain": "global", "reason": "notFound" } ], "status": "NOT_FOUND" } }

here is my php file:

        require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

        $client = new \Google_Client();
        $client->setApplicationName('Sheets Test');
        $client->setScopes([\Google_Service_Sheets::SPREADSHEETS]);
        $client->setAccessType('offline');
        $client->setAuthConfig(__DIR__ . '/credentials.json');
        $service = new \Google_Service_Sheets($client);
        $spreadsheetId = "1sefMmSCVnQRMVFuG8l5SKx7phpD2vvmwzq7opsgyuebYIU";
        $range = "currentRatings!A2:C4";
        $response = $service->spreadsheets_values->get($spreadsheetId, $range);
        $values = $response->getValues();
        if(empty($values)){
            print "No data found. \n";
        } else {
             $mask = "%10s %-10s $s\n";
             foreach($values as $row){
                echo sprintf($mask, $row[2], $row[1], $row[0]);
            }
        } 

as shown above, i did connect a credentials file which is the same service account that the sheet is shared to. i also know that the problem occurs/starts at this line:

$response = $service->spreadsheets_values->get($spreadsheetId, $range);

here's what i've tried:

• double checking the sheet id
• downgrading the version of google api via composer
• changing the "$range" values (nothing changed, even when i changed the name of the sheet to an incorrect name)
• creating a new service account in google console
• making sure the sheet is shared to the service account

okay so i found out that my id was too long, i was probably accidentally typing in it at some point which caused the error. i did check the id, but i only checked the front and back of the id.
