Hello, I am a beginner who is currently learning how to code and experiment with AI tools on my personal computer. My Gemini API project was recently restricted due to a policy violation, and I have already submitted an appeal. I wanted to post here politely in case anyone from the team or community can offer guidance on what I should do next. Project: My First Project Project ID: project-064d28ef-3763-4ec… Ticket Reference ID: DHFPTMWQWLNKVFS4FEEBDV5KR4 To be fully honest, I was testing some open-source local AI agent scripts while learning. I now realize that some automated requests or tool behaviors may have unintentionally violated the Gemini API terms or policies. This was not intentional misuse, and I stopped everything as soon as I received the notice. I have already shut down the related scripts and I am reviewing the code and Google’s policy documents more carefully so I can avoid making the same mistake again. I truly apologize for the mistake. I would be very grateful if anyone could help me understand: 1. Whether there is any update I should wait for regarding the appeal 2. Whether there is anything else I can provide to support the review 3. Whether beginners in cases like this should simply wait, or take any additional step I sincerely respect Google’s policies, and I am willing to correct anything necessary. I would really appreciate any guidance. Thank you very much.
