Request allowlist access for gemini-3.1-flash-live-preview — project gen-lang-client-02591885

Gemini API
1

Hi team,

Requesting allowlist access for gemini-3.1-flash-live-preview.

Model: gemini-3.1-flash-live-preview
API surface: Gemini API (AI Studio), not Vertex
Project ID: [gen-lang-client-02591885..]
Project number: [9415414813..]
Billing: [Enabled]

Use case: Real-time voice and vision assistant application (BLOPY AI)
that watches a user’s screen or camera and provides live voice feedback
using audio+video bidirectional streaming via WebSocket. Currently
blocked — API key only has access to gemini-3.5-transcribe-live,
not the conversational Live models needed for two-way audio+video.

Thank you!

Hello @Erick_Gtz,

No allowlist is required for accessing gemini-3.1-flash-live-preview. If you are still unable to access this model, can you share the complete error message you are receiving and a minimal code snippet containing the payload details to help debug this issue?

Hi Pooja,

Thanks for the quick reply. Here’s the concrete evidence:

1. Billing is now enabled on the project (gen-lang-client-0259188512 /

project number 941541481379).

2. Calling GET https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models?key=API_KEY

does NOT return gemini-3.1-flash-live-preview in the list of available

models for this key — the only “live” model returned is

gemini-3.5-transcribe-live.

3. When attempting to connect directly via the Live API using the

@google/genai Node SDK, the connection opens but closes immediately

with no useful detail:

const session = await ai.live.connect({

 model: "gemini-3.1-flash-live-preview",

 config: {

   responseModalities: \[Modality.AUDIO\],

   speechConfig: {

     voiceConfig: { prebuiltVoiceConfig: { voiceName: "Aoede" } }

   },

   systemInstruction: "...",

 },

 callbacks: {

   onclose: (event) => console.log("closed:", JSON.stringify(event)),

 }

});

Result: session closes within ~1 second, onclose event detail is an

empty object ({}), no error code or reason provided.

Could this be related to something other than allowlisting — e.g. API

version, region restriction, or a project-level setting that needs to be

enabled separately from billing? Any pointer on what to check next would

help a lot.

Thanks!
