Para usar Gemini en Vertex AI, debes autenticarte con una Google Cloud clave de API o con credenciales predeterminadas de la aplicación. Te recomendamos que uses una clave de API para las pruebas y credenciales predeterminadas de la aplicación para la producción. En esta página, se muestra cómo configurar las credenciales predeterminadas de la aplicación.
Antes de comenzar
Selecciona un proyecto, habilita la facturación y la API de Vertex AI, e instala gcloud CLI
Después de configurar las credenciales predeterminadas de la aplicación, consulta la guía de inicio rápido de la API para obtener información sobre cómo realizar tu primera solicitud.
