Hello Google AI Team,
I would like to request allowlist access for my Vertex AI project to enable the Gemini 3 Preview models.
Models Requested:
- gemini-3.1-flash-lite-preview
- gemini-3.1-pro-preview
- gemini-3-flash-preview
Project Information:
- Project ID: arctic-robot-496920-..
- Use Case: Developing “Almonjez Pro,” an AI-powered document automation, formatting, and professional translation platform. We need the speed and cost-efficiency of the 3.1 Flash Lite model to handle high-volume text generation in our backend.
- Current Status: I am receiving a 404 NOT_FOUND error when attempting to call the model via the SDK:
Error 404, Message: Publisher Model projects/arctic-robot-496920-d0/locations/us-central1/publishers/google/models/gemini-3.1-flash-lite-preview was not found or your project does not have access to it.
Technical Setup:
- SDK: Vertex AI via Python SDK (using the new google-genai package)
- Authentication: Service Account JSON with Editor / Vertex AI User roles
- Region: us-central1
Thank you for considering this request. I look forward to testing these preview capabilities to enhance our production backend.
