Released on January 2, 2026, prompt2json v0.1.1 brings significant improvements to the robustness of our Google Cloud Platform (GCP) integration and a comprehensive expansion of our documentation to help users get started more quickly.

What’s new

Robust GCP Input Validation

To reduce API errors and provide faster feedback, v0.1.1 introduces strict input validation for GCP components. By integrating gcpvalidate, the tool now verifies Project IDs, regions, and Vertex AI model names before any API calls are made. This means you’ll know immediately if your configuration is incorrect, rather than waiting for a response from the cloud.

Improved Global Model Support

We’ve refined how prompt2json handles Vertex AI global models. When the location is set to global, the tool now automatically routes requests to the correct global endpoint, ensuring seamless compatibility with global model deployments.

Expanded Documentation

Getting started with prompt2json is now easier than ever. We’ve added a full suite of documentation, including:

  • Detailed Installation Guide: Step-by-step instructions for using pre-built binaries, go install, or building from source.
  • Comprehensive Usage Guide: In-depth coverage of CLI options, provider-specific flags, and authentication methods.
  • Practical Examples: Real-world scenarios to help you master the tool’s capabilities.

Why it matters

For developers relying on Vertex AI, these changes mean a more reliable and predictable experience. The addition of pre-flight validation eliminates the frustration of malformed requests, while the improved global endpoint handling ensures that the tool works as expected regardless of your deployment region. Furthermore, the new documentation lowers the barrier to entry, making it easier for new users to integrate structured JSON prompting into their workflows.
