"Select key" dropdown closes dialogue automatically when upgrading to pay-per-request

Hi everyone,

I am running into a blocking UI issue in Google AI Studio when trying to upgrade my account to the “pay per request” tier.

When I reach my daily limit and the “Upgrade to continue your flow” prompt appears, I select the option to continue with pay per request. This brings up the “Link a paid API key” dialogue box. However, the moment I click on the “Select key” dropdown menu, the entire modal instantly closes without warning, and I am returned to the underlying page with no key linked.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Reach the daily limit in Google AI Studio.

  2. Click “Continue with pay per request” on the upgrade prompt.

  3. On the “Link a paid API key” dialogue, click the “Select key” dropdown.

  4. Expected behaviour: A list of available API keys expands for selection.

  5. Actual behaviour: The modal crashes/closes automatically.

Has anyone else experienced this, or is there an alternative settings page where I can manually force-link my Google Cloud API key to my AI Studio account? It is currently preventing me from transitioning to a paid tier.

Thanks in advance for your help!
