Hello Google AI Studio Team,

I am using Google AI Studio Build mode to develop my application

I repeatedly receive the “Quota limits exceeded” / “Limit reached” error. I waited until the next day and started a new chat, but the issue still persists.

Google One Support informed me that this may be a server-side issue and advised me to contact the developer community.

Could you please investigate whether this is a server-side issue, a Build Agent quota problem, or an account entitlement issue?

I can provide screenshots of the error and the relevant app/project details privately if needed.

Thank you.

Hello @Tushar_Fulare ,

Please try the below steps:

- Start a new chat in your existing app in [AI Studio Build mode](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/aistudio-build-mode) instead of retrying in the same conversation thread (your existing application files remain intact).
- If you have a Cloud Billing-enabled project, check the Usage section in the Build chat settings to verify that your paid Gemini API key is selected, as AI Studio uses free tier requests unless a paid API key is linked ([Google AI Studio billing FAQ](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/billing#is-AI-Studio-free)).
- If you are using the free quota without a paid API key linked, please let us know if the error still shows up even after 24 hours.
- If the issue persists after starting a new chat, please share your Applet ID and a screenshot of the Build chat settings Usage section via direct message.
