Getting error 500 for read requests to google spreadsheet using gspread - google-sheets-api

Question

I have a script python script trying to access a google spreadsheet, but I am getting a 500 error from trying to get the list of worksheets with gc.worksheets()
APIError: {'code': 500, 'message': 'Internal error encountered.', 'status': 'INTERNAL'}

The Code I am using is the following:
import pandas as pd
import gspread
from oauth2client.service_account import ServiceAccountCredentials
CREDENTIALS_JSON = 'credentials.json'
SCOPES = ['https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds','https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive']
creds = ServiceAccountCredentials.from_json_keyfile_name(CREDENTIALS_JSON, SCOPES)
client = gspread.authorize(creds)
gc = client.open_by_url('<I use the url of the file here>')
worksheets = gc.worksheets() # This like is returning an error
sheet1 = gc.get_worksheet_by_id(<sheet id>) # This line is also returning an error
Everything was working just fine a day before, and I haven't made any changes to the script.
