You're not sending your API key correctly. Like the bot said (using Gemini to read your messages), you need to share your code.
i did set it up using the "set GEMINI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here" with my key in it
Where'd you put that?
in the commandprompt?
It's hard to answer without seeing your code.

there
If you print out the api key do you see the correct key?
from the google studio? yes
I mean in your code, print it out to see what is actually being sent as the x-goog-api-key header
Also make it all lowercaes, no capital X
im gonna be honest with you i dont know how to do that 😭 im a total noob
Just change that X to x and see if it works
nope its still showing the same
Ok, after
GEMINI_API_KEY = os.getenv("GEMINI_API_KEY")
put
print("'" + GEMINI_API_KEY + "'")
You should see something like 'nklTV0yMYEQ4iFkdlnbcXjxU7VOfzirqoLfSbj8' and it should EXACTLY MATCH the key you set in the command prompt.
okayy
I put quotes around it so you can see if there are any spaces or if it is empty
