[Bug]: AttributeError: 'Candidate' object has no attribute 'grounding_metadata' in intro-grounding-gemini.ipynb

[MrCsabaToth]

File Name

intro-grounding-gemini.ipynb

What happened?

For some reason the step

tool = Tool.from_google_search_retrieval(grounding.GoogleSearchRetrieval())

response = model.generate_content(PROMPT, tools=[tool])

print_grounding_response(response)

resulted in this.

Holt Skinner asked me to file this bug. I was executing the lab in a Workbench instance, not Colab. The %pip install --upgrade --user --quiet google-cloud-aiplatform didn't seem to upgrade, it outputted:

%pip install --upgrade --user --quiet google-cloud-aiplatform

Hello Team,

I can take up this issue.

[holtskinner]

I think there was a change to the API service in how it outputs this field.

[MrCsabaToth]

What was weird to me is that the print showed that field the error complains about, however the dir didn't
