I am encountering an error in the Google Gemini Embeddings node. It was previously working fine, but now it displays a validation error stating: “The value ‘models/text-embedding-004’ is not supported!” Details: Node Name: Google Gemini Embeddings Model Selected: models/text-embedding-004 Error Message: The value is flagged as not supported in the parameter dropdown. Credential: Google Gemini API (Verified and active) I have tried re-selecting the model and refreshing the credentials, but the issue persists. Could you please check if there is a mismatch in the model naming convention or if an update is required for this node? n8n 2.6.3 ## Describe the problem/error/question ## What is the error message (if any)? ## Please share your workflow ```auto (Select the nodes on your canvas and use the keyboard shortcuts CMD+C/CTRL+C and CMD+V/CTRL+V to copy and paste the workflow.) ``` ## Share the output returned by the last node ## Information on your n8n setup - **n8n version:** - **Database (default: SQLite):** - **n8n EXECUTIONS\_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):** - **Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):** - **Operating system:** ---

Hi @Itsdevelopment Welcome! The error “The value ‘models/text-embedding-004’ is not supported” occurs because the `text-embedding-004` model has been deprecated or retired by Google. You can solve this by using another model which is currently active like `gemini-embedding-001` , hope this helps. ---

This isn’t a solution because the embedding dimensions are not the same. ---

As Anshul and Prince\_NoCode already pointed out, this unfortunately means you’ll need to either re-embed your existing data with the new model or keep the old vectors as they are and plan a migration, since mixing dimensions won’t work. ---

Is there no other way? There seems to be a way to adjust gemini-embedding-001 to other sizes according to the API docs: ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/n8n/original/3X/d/4/d401b35ddc62dbbf662ad46d286ecfbb2fd7beef.png) ---
