How do I get an API key for 2.5 Pro? I've paid for AI Studio Pro but only see `gemini-2.0-flash`

Alright, I see a lot of people asking, so here's how to set up Gemini for your Proxy.

It seems from https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/billing I need to pay for Google Cloud to get any API besides the 2.0 free? Really?!
edit - someone posted then deleted:
Gemini Pro only gives you Pro in Gemini Web. AI studio is a separate thing where they give you access for free (but train on your chats in exchange).
The API is free, but they blocked the newer models from the free tier, and you dont unlock access to Pro on the API if you bought Pro web.
Confused yet? Welcome to Google. Corpo boolicking is irresistible to some people on this sub.
So, I actually paid for 'Google Workspace Business Standard' - even though it was not sold as that when I was prompted to upgrade from within AI Studio. "Unlock the full power of AI" it promises - but clearly that "full power" does not include the API.
Thanks for all the replies that made some effort to actually assist - rather than just demonstrate a desperate need to appear superior when not having the first clue what they are talking about!

First, go to https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey and sign in with your Google account. There, you'll generate an API key.
From there it's just a bunch of copy pasting. https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/chat/completions goes in your chat completion URL, and for model, the free one is gemini-2.5-flash.
Yes, it does do NSFW, though it's a bit iffy sometimes, a bit of regenerating will get it to do NSFW.
Yes, it does dead dove.
Yes, it's decent. Not as good as Deepseek R1, but really fucking good for being free.
Edit: Apparently, some people are having a problem with no generation, and I have no solution. For me, I have that exact same problem with Deepseek and ChatGPT. I don't know what causes it, so I can't fix it.

A note from Gemini itself:
Hi, I created a Gemini api key to use with Langchain code, about 4-5 months ago. This api key still works. I want to delete it from Google console. But I cannot find the key to delete. This key starts with "AIz..... "
I tried both Google Cloud console and Google AI Studio console. But I couldn't find this key listed anywhere. Please advise on how I can find this key. Thanks.
