Google AI Studio is the fastest and easiest way to get started using Google’s latest Gemini models. Through AI Studio, you can also create and manage API keys for the Gemini API.
Today, Google also has a Generative AI Studio which is part of Google Cloud. Typically, Google Cloud is the best option for enterprise use cases as it has more customization and controls. Google AI Studio is best if you want to quickly get started and test the Gemini models.
We have more changes in the works to make it more clear how to access https://aistudio.google.com/, so stay tuned!
Hi, I am a complete newbie here, and wanted to know how to build an application using Gemini 1.5 in Google ai studio. I have code written in Google colab notebook, with api key and all.
I wanted to submit the code for the hackathon but they need a project id for that.
So, do i have to build it on the AI console from scratch?
If so, how? how to upload my code and get a project id?
Pl. guide. I could not find any videos. If there is any relevant link, Pl. share.
Thanks.
Where it says “Sandbox” is what would say either your organization or Google Cloud project.
Clicking that drop-down button will show your projects and their respective IDs.
afaik, you need a Google Cloud project in order to set up an API key for Gemini, so it should be the ID of whatever project you used to generate your API key for Gemini.
Thanks for the help. My questions don’t seem to end. Actually, I borrowed the free key they are offering until May 2. So, I did not go to cloud, but enabled its use in my colab as a secret.
So, just confirming, II have to go to google cloud and build a project there, by first entering credit card details, in order to gain access, right?
Thanks.
I believe so. If you do not already have a Google Cloud account, you will need one so you can make a project, and thus get your Cloud project ID. I thought you needed one to access the Gemini API, but I guess I’m wrong there.
Google has a big ecosystem, so don’t fret. We’re all figuring out what goes where right now.
On the bright side, Google Cloud stuff is actually really easy to navigate and set up. It’s not like AWS. It is far more beginner-friendly and no-nonsense.
