Hello,

I am consistently receiving a `404 Not Found` error when trying to use the Inference API, and I suspect there may be an issue with my account’s access.

- I have tried multiple popular models (e.g., `google/gemma-2b-it`, `mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2`) and they all fail with the same error.

- I have confirmed the issue is not with my code, because a direct `curl` request also fails with a `404 Not Found` error.

- I have generated several brand new **`read`** tokens to ensure the key is valid, but they all result in the same error.

Could you please check if my account is properly enabled for Inference API access? Thank you.

[That model is currently not deployed](https://huggingface.co/models?inference_provider=all&sort=trending&search=google%2Fgemma-2b-it). Also, [the Inference API has changed](https://discuss.huggingface.co/t/persistent-404-not-found-errors-with-public-inference-api/154119/13), so the implementation needs to be reviewed.
