Hi @TheoneThefool,

Could you please provide more details about the issue you're facing? It will help me understand whether it's a credential issue or a bug.

Thanks!

Hi @Yash-1511 , I don't know how to lookup for more details, that is all errors I can see in the git bash. Could you please show me how to check that ? Thank you for your help !

Hi @Yash-1511 . I seem to recall the credential error in the following step ↓ Thanks!

Hello @TheoneThefool ,

First please follow the link to create your Google API key for Gemini Pro Vision. The process is straightforward.

Once you have your API key, proceed by cloning the repository and following the installation instructions. Then, add your API key to the .env file.

To test if your API is functioning correctly, you can use the following sample request:

curl \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"contents":[{"parts":[{"text":"Write a story about a magic backpack"}]}]}' \
  -X POST https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-pro:generateContent?key=YOUR_API_KEY

Make sure to replace "YOUR_API_KEY" with the actual API key you obtained.

This process should help you get started with Gemini Pro Vision more effectively. If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.

Thank you @Yash-1511 , My API can be invoked successfully, but my google-generativeai version is 0.3.2 and SOC requires 0.3.0 dose this matter?
