AI API Configuration for Netlify Deployment

Google API Key Setup for Netlify

To ensure the generate functionality works properly on your Netlify deployment, you need to configure the Google API key as an environment variable.

Steps:

  1. Get your Google API Key:

    • Go to Google AI Studio
    • Create an account or sign in
    • Create a new API key for your project
    • Copy the API key

  2. Configure the Environment Variable on Netlify:

    • Go to your Netlify dashboard
    • Select your project
    • Go to "Site settings" → "Build & deploy" → "Environment"
    • Click "Edit variables"
    • Add a new variable:
      • Key: GOOGLE_API_KEY
      • Value: [Your copied API key]
    • Save the changes

  3. Redeploy your site:

    • Trigger a new build to apply the environment variable changes

Troubleshooting:

  • If you're still getting 504 errors after setting up the API key:
    • Check that the environment variable is properly set in Netlify
    • Make sure your Google API key has the necessary permissions for the Gemini API
    • Verify your billing is properly set up with Google Cloud if required
    • Ensure your API key hasn't exceeded usage quotas

Timeout Configuration:

The application is configured with:

  • 60-second timeout for API requests
  • 2 retry attempts for failed requests
  • Proper error handling for timeout scenarios

This should help prevent the 504 errors you were experiencing with the generate functionality.
