Gemini Embeddings Free Tier Quota Stuck at 0 After Overage – No Reset Across Projects

Hi,

I’m encountering the same error when using the Generative Language / Gemini API:

Quota exceeded for metric: generativelanguage.googleapis.com/embed_content_free_tier_requests, limit: 0

It seems that my quota for that metric is set to 0, even though the documentation mentions a free tier.

Could you please help clarify:

Is there indeed a Free Tier for embed_content (or embedding) requests?

Why is my quota for that metric 0 — is this a default, a misconfiguration, or a limitation in my region/project?

If there is a free tier, how can I enable or request it (or increase it)?

My project Project ID is : gen-lang-client-0328127297

Thanks in advance for your help.

PS:
If quota doesn’t work for gemini-embedding-001 looks like it’s working for the text-embedding-004
