Watch out for

Base64 strings can exceed n8n's default data size limits so you must increase the maxDataSize setting in your workflow configuration.
Vertex AI operations may take several minutes to complete so ensure your Wait Node is configured with a sufficient retry and timeout policy.
GCP access tokens expire after one hour so add logic to refresh the token if the workflow runs longer than expected.
The Google Drive API requires specific scope permissions so verify that the service account has read/write access to the target folder.
