- Enter your API token (e.g.
user:12345-abcdefg) and click Start Setup
- A remote browser will open below — log in with your dedicated Gmail account
- After you sign in, setup opens Gemini Notebook, connects your account and verifies it, usually within a few seconds.
Use a dedicated Gmail account with 2-Step Verification and Microsoft Authenticator — do not use your personal Gmail. The remote browser below signs in from the US, so no VPN is needed. After setup, the API uses this Google session.
