Unable to intercept requests to generativelanguages.google

[Jeevan Prakash]

So I'm using a MITM proxy and when I run hit the API endpoint using requests python library, I'm successfully able to see the network trace in my middle man proxy log, but when I use this python package for the same task I'm unable to see the network trace to the generativelanguage.googleapis endpoint.

Hi, this library uses GRPC by default. You can switch it to use rest with:

genai.configure(transport="rest")

Does that fix it for you?

Hi @MarkDaoust, i Iwent through the transport param and you're right if I give it a value of rest it needs to use the rest protocol for the Gemini service, but I'm still unable to see any traces in my MITM network calls when I use that param. I will check if there is anything else wrong and get back

import google.generativeai as genai
genai.configure(transport="rest")

GOOGLE_API_KEY=''

genai.configure(api_key=GOOGLE_API_KEY)

model = genai.GenerativeModel('gemini-1.5-flash')
response = model.generate_content("What is the meaning of life?")

Those are my mitm logs while I was running the code on vscode
as you can see there is no called to generativeai google apis.
Im successfully able to fetch the response though
