I think that's better.

I don't think there's a perfect value according to the docs. Select quotes:

  • "Selecting a global endpoint for your requests can improve overall availability while reducing resource exhausted (429) errors"
  • Usage of the global endpoint is supported for the following Google models... [gemini 2.0 and 2.5]
  • For some models, Google also offers a global endpoint (Preview)

Currently us-central1 supports the most models by far of any region including global, but not all of them. us-central1 has all google models but is missing some Anthropic partner models, which use us-east5 instead. global has fewer models but higher availability.

Google is not making like easy!

If not all models support global, I guess we have to stick to us-central1 - @Kludex let's add a comment with @dhimmel's details.
