SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Enables developers to build AI-powered applications by providing a unified Interactions API for Gemini models and agents.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Stateful conversations with server-side history via previous_interaction_id
  • Streaming responses via Server-Sent Events (SSE)
  • Tool orchestration: function calling, Google Search, code execution, URL context, file search, remote MCP
  • Access to built-in agents like Deep Research
  • Multimodal understanding and generation
  • End-to-end workflows including background tasks and asynchronous processing

Quick Start

Instantiate a Gemini Interactions client and start a first interaction to a model using the unified Interactions API.

Frequently Asked Questions about gemini-interactions-api

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build a stateful chatbot with Gemini models using server-side history?

Build stateful chatbots with Gemini models by using a unified Interactions API that maintains server-side conversation history via the previous_interaction_id parameter. This allows your AI agents to retain context across multiple user turns without managing history client-side.

What is the best way to implement streaming responses for Gemini AI agents?

Implement streaming responses for Gemini AI agents using Server-Sent Events (SSE) through the Interactions API. SSE enables real-time token streaming directly to your application, providing immediate feedback to users during long generations.

Does the Gemini Interactions API support function calling and tool orchestration?

The Gemini Interactions API supports tool orchestration including function calling, Google Search, code execution, URL context, file search, and remote MCP. This enables AI agents to autonomously select and execute tools to complete complex automation pipelines.

Can I use Gemini interactions for multimodal applications and asynchronous background tasks?

Gemini interactions support multimodal understanding and generation alongside end-to-end workflows with asynchronous background tasks. This allows your applications to process images and text while running long-running research or automation jobs without blocking the main thread.

Do I need Python or TypeScript SDKs to start an interaction with a Gemini model?

You need either Python or TypeScript SDKs to instantiate a Gemini Interactions client and start an interaction. You must also provide valid model or agent IDs to route your requests correctly to the underlying Gemini architecture.

How do I access built-in agents like Deep Research through the Gemini API?

Access built-in agents like Deep Research through the unified Gemini Interactions API by specifying the appropriate agent ID when instantiating your client. This provides immediate entry to advanced research and automation capabilities without custom agent configuration.
