Hello,

I have a paid Tier 1 billing account and am currently receiving the following error when using the Python Gemini API (not Vertex AI) in Colab for the Gemini 2.5 Flash model, despite being under the quota limits:

ClientError: 429 RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED. {'error': {'code': 429, 'message': 'Resource has been exhausted (e.g. check quota).', 'status': 'RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED'}}

This is my API key page:

This is my quota usage (TPM went briefly over a few days ago but has stayed below since, and RPD and RPM have been far below the limit the whole time):
