Hi,
I’m trying to use the Gemini API from a Google Apps Script automation connected to a Google Form and Google Sheet.
I’m using a personal Google account and created a new Google Cloud project specifically for this.
The project is:
Plumbing AI Enquiries
The Gemini API is enabled and I have created an API key in the correct project.
However, AI Studio shows the project status as “Restricted” and says:
“This project’s API access is restricted. Please set up billing to continue.”
When my Apps Script calls the Gemini API, I receive:
403 PERMISSION_DENIED
“Your project has been denied access. Please contact support.”
I would like to use the Gemini API on the Free Tier and do not want to enable paid billing.
Could someone please review the project restriction and advise whether free-tier access can be enabled?
Thank you.
