I’ve been getting this error all day on any and every project I try. Is there an outage that anyone knows of. Or is anyone experiencing the same?

I’m in a project trying to ask AI and any and everything I ask gets this.

Sorry, I hit a snag. Please try again shortly or modify your prompt.

okay, here is the link : [Temporary workaround for error due to exceeding input token count (unofficial)](https://community.firebasestudio.dev/t/temporary-workaround-for-error-due-to-exceeding-input-token-count-unofficial/12457) but this solution ain’t working anymore so read it just so that you understund the error. i mean the exact comands ain’t working anymore. firstly you’ll type in the terminal `timestamp=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S); \ mkdir -p "/home/user/studio/context_backup/" && \ cp "/home/user/.idx/ai/prototyper-context-state.json" "/home/user/studio/context_backup/prototyper-context-state-${timestamp}.json" && \ cp "/home/user/.idx/ai/prototyper-thread.json" "/home/user/studio/context_backup/prototyper-thread-${timestamp}.json"` this is to keep backup of your context file in case if things went wrong(trust me its important). then after you do, you’ll type `code /home/user/.idx/ai/prototyper-context-state.json` this is the file where the context of gemeni is stored, and thats why you are getting that problem. after you typed this in the terminal you’ll continue with step 9 in the link i sent you.

For anyone that this happend to. looks like Google found the bug and have updated something. The AI Should now fix itself. it said

" The error message you received is because I previously misconfigured your `firebase.json` file, leaving it in a state where Firebase didn’t know which part of your project to deploy.

I will now provide the correct configuration for `firebase.json` to explicitly point to your main Next.js application at the root of the project. This will resolve the deployment error."

Hello, I have this error in the prototyper view of my project. Any idea of how to solve this?

The error displays the following:

[{ “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [ “history”, 0, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 1, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 2, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 3, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 4, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 5, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 6, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 7, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 8, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 9, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 10, “content”], “message”: “Required” }, { “code”: “invalid\_type”, “expected”: “array”, “received”: “undefined”, “path”: [“history”, 11, “content”], “message”: “Required” } ]
