How to create Gemini API Keys in 2024

Hello everyone! In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through the process of generating a Gemini API key absolutely free. This key allows you to access Gemini, an AI model similar to GPT, for content generation tasks. Unlike traditional AI models that often require paid subscriptions, Gemini is currently in beta and does not cost anything to use.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, ensure you meet the following requirements:

  • You must be in a country where Google AI Studio and Gemini are available. Currently, Gemini is accessible in the US and several other countries, but not yet in Europe.
  • If you’re not in a supported country, you’ll need to use a VPN to change your IP address to an American one. I recommend Express VPN, which offers a 30-day free trial. You can cancel anytime for a full refund if you’re not satisfied.
  • Installing Gemini for Google Sheets
  1. Visit the Gemini for Sheets Add-On on the Google Workspace Marketplace.
  2. Click on “Install”.

    • Change your IP address to an American one to proceed with Google AI Studio.
  2. Access Google AI Studio
    • Visit AI Studio and sign in with the Google account where you want to create the API key.
  3. Navigate to API Key Creation
    • Once logged in, navigate to the API Key section by clicking on your profile icon and selecting “Get API key.”
  4. Create a New Project
    • If you don’t have an existing Google Cloud project, you can create a new one directly from the AI Studio interface.
  5. Generate the API Key
    • Click on “Create API key” and follow the prompts to either select an existing project or create a new one. The API key will be generated instantly.
  6. Copy and Secure Your API Key
    • The API key will be displayed on your screen. Important: Do not share this key publicly. Copy it to your clipboard and store it securely on your computer.
  7. Start Using Gemini API
    • Now that you have your Gemini API key, you can integrate it into various applications, including Google Sheets, for content generation and automation tasks.
