TL;DR

The most likely fix is to re-check and ensure the correct permissions are set for the Google account being used for authentication.

Guidance

  • Verify that the Google account used for login has the necessary permissions and access rights to use the Google AI Pro features.
  • Check the Google Cloud Console to ensure that the correct permissions are enabled for the project associated with the Google AI Pro purchase.
  • Review the authentication flow and ensure that the OAuth personal auth type is correctly configured and authorized.
  • Consider re-authorizing the Google account or re-purchasing the Google AI Pro subscription if the issue persists.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to authentication and permissions rather than code.

Notes

The issue may be specific to the user's Google account or the Google AI Pro subscription, and further investigation is needed to determine the root cause.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Re-check and ensure the correct permissions are set for the Google account being used for authentication, as the issue seems to be related to authentication and permissions rather than a version-specific bug.
