Code Examples
pip install google-cloud-aiplatformGOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECTmistral-large-1For Google-published models use the model name directly, e.g. "gemini-2.0-flash-001". For third-party publishers (Anthropic, Meta, etc.) use the full publisher path, e.g. "publishers/anthropic/models/claude-3-5-sonnet-v2@20241022".
