Self Provided Google API No Longer Works

[ChristianNorth]

Describe the Bug

I am getting the following error whenever I try to use my self provided google api key, which I know 100% is valid. It looks like some of the model names in the google API has changed, and Cursor has not updated it. I was using Azure OpenAI before and now Google doesn’t work either. I might as well switch to github copilot at this rate…

We encountered an issue when using your API key: Provider was unable to process your request API Error: Request failed with status code 404: [{ "error": { "code": 404, "message": "models/gemini-2.5-pro-latest is not found for API version v1main, or is not supported for generateContent. Call ListModels to see the list of available models and their supported methods.", "status": "NOT_FOUND" } } ]

Steps to Reproduce

1. Add google API key
2. Send a message
3. Get a bug

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

I am seeing a similar issue without a custom API key

[ChristianNorth]

For anyone looking, a temporary fix is to add a custom model with the new gemini model names: e.g., gemini-2.5-pro-preview-06-05

Hey, do you have MCP servers enabled? Try disabling them and check again.
