Hello user, how are you?

I noticed that you use a wait to wait for the file generation; have you considered checking if the file exists before proceeding with the base64 conversion?

Take a look at this example, adjust the if, because since I don’t have access to the output of “Vertex AI-fetch” I simulated the data.

If this helps you, mark this answer as the solution. I’m glad I could help.

Hey, please run the fetch node, right click > Pin to pin the data and then copy the node and paste it here, inside a code block ( </> button ). This will share just that node with the pinned data.

Thanks you are the best!
