I've tried restarting VScode, deleting my whole baml_client directory and regenerating it, and a few other things. What could explain how my BAML function is working while the playground only raises an error?

is tehre an api key set in the playground?

yes my vertex api key is set in the playground. Here is my full error:

Can you copy the curl request? From the playground

I can't copy the whole thing, to avoid sharing secrets, but I do see something strange there:

curl 'http://localhost:61301/' \
>   -H 'sec-ch-ua-platform: "macOS"' \
>   -H 'baml-original-url: https://$GEMINI_REGION-aiplatform.googleapis.com/v1/projects/...

I don't know why the

$GEMINI_REGION

variable is not getting picked up here; I have it defined both in my

.env

and

.bash_profile

and restarted my terminal and vscode etc. In the process of poking around there I also noticed that my vscode extension had been upgraded to 0.212.0, out of sync with my baml-py version (0.211.2) so I downgraded the extension to match, but that did not help.

and if you run the curl request in your terminal you get the same error right? you can try to see what the request looks like in python by doing

b.request.MyFunction()

, and compare it to the playground. Sorry you're running into these issues, I'll track an issue on our end

thanks -- I'll report back if I get a chance to explore your suggestions here, but for now my quick fix is to define

GEMINI_REGION

in the API keys section of the playground. I thought other variables were getting read directly from my global environment, but possibly I was wrong about that
