La chiamata di funzioni consente di collegare i modelli a strumenti e API esterni. Anziché generare risposte di testo, il modello determina quando chiamare funzioni specifiche e fornisce i parametri necessari per eseguire azioni nel mondo reale. Ciò consente al modello di fungere da ponte tra il linguaggio naturale e le azioni e i dati del mondo reale. Le chiamate di funzione hanno tre casi d'uso principali:
- Esegui azioni:interagisci con sistemi esterni utilizzando API, ad esempio pianificare appuntamenti, creare fatture, inviare email o controllare dispositivi per la smart home.
- Aumenta le conoscenze:accedi alle informazioni da fonti esterne come database, API e knowledge base.
- Estendi le funzionalità:utilizza strumenti esterni per eseguire calcoli ed estendere i limiti del modello, ad esempio utilizzando una calcolatrice o creando grafici.
Di seguito puoi sfogliare alcuni esempi di questi casi d'uso:
Pianifica riunione
Questo esempio mostra come definire una funzione che pianifica una riunione con i partecipanti a un'ora specifica, consentendo al modello di analizzare le richieste degli utenti e restituire argomenti strutturati per attivare azioni in sistemi esterni.

Come funziona la chiamata di funzioni

La chiamata di funzioni prevede un'interazione strutturata tra l'applicazione, il modello e le funzioni esterne:
- Definisci la dichiarazione di funzione:definisci il nome, i parametri e lo scopo della funzione per il modello.
- Chiama LLM con dichiarazioni di funzione: invia il prompt dell'utente insieme alle dichiarazioni di funzione al modello.
- Esecuzione del codice della funzione (tua responsabilità): il modello non esegue la funzione stessa. Estrai il nome e gli argomenti ed esegui nell'applicazione.
- Crea una risposta intuitiva: invia il risultato al modello per una risposta finale e intuitiva.
Questa procedura può essere ripetuta in più turni. Il modello supporta la chiamata di più funzioni in un singolo turno (chiamata di funzione parallela) e in sequenza (chiamata di funzione compositiva).
Passaggio 1: definisci una dichiarazione di funzione

Chiamata di funzione stateless
Puoi anche utilizzare la chiamata di funzioni in modalità stateless gestendo la cronologia della conversazione sul lato client e impostando store=false.
In modalità stateless, devi trasmettere la cronologia completa della conversazione nel campo input di ogni richiesta successiva. Questa cronologia deve includere:
1. Il passaggio iniziale user_input.
2. Tutti i passaggi generati dal modello restituiti nel Turno 1 (inclusi i passaggi thought e function_call) esattamente come ricevuti.
3. Il passaggio function_result contenente l'output della funzione eseguita.

Dichiarazioni di funzione
Una dichiarazione di funzione viene passata come strumento e include:
type(stringa): deve essere"function"per le funzioni personalizzate.name(stringa): nome univoco della funzione (utilizza trattini bassi o camelCase).description(stringa): spiegazione chiara dello scopo della funzione.parameters(oggetto): parametri di input previsti dalla funzione.type(stringa): tipo di dati complessivo, ad esempioobject.properties(oggetto): singoli parametri con tipo e descrizione.required(array): nomi dei parametri obbligatori.
Chiamata di funzione con modelli di ragionamento
I modelli della serie Gemini 3 utilizzano un processo interno di "pensiero" che migliora la chiamata di funzioni. Gli SDK gestiscono automaticamente le firme del pensiero.
Chiamata di funzione parallela
Chiama più funzioni contemporaneamente quando sono indipendenti:

Modalità di chiamata di funzione
Controlla il modo in cui il modello utilizza gli strumenti utilizzando tool_choice in generation_config:
auto(predefinito): il modello decide se chiamare una funzione o rispondere direttamente.any: il modello è vincolato a prevedere sempre una chiamata di funzione.none: Il modello non può effettuare chiamate di funzione.validated: Il modello garantisce il rispetto dello schema della funzione.

Utilizzo di multiutensili
Puoi attivare più strumenti, combinando quelli integrati con la chiamata a funzioni nella stessa richiesta. I modelli Gemini 3 possono combinare strumenti integrati con la chiamata di funzioni
pronte all'uso in Interazioni. Il passaggio di previous_interaction_id
fa circolare automaticamente il contesto dello strumento integrato.

Risposte di funzioni multimodali
Per i modelli della serie Gemini 3, puoi includere contenuti multimodali nelle parti della risposta della funzione che invii al modello. Il modello può elaborare questo contenuto multimodale nel turno successivo per produrre una risposta più informata.
Per includere dati multimodali in una risposta della funzione, includili come uno o più blocchi di contenuti nel campo result del passaggio function_result. Ogni blocco di contenuti deve specificare il relativo type (ad es. "text", "image").
Il seguente esempio mostra come inviare una risposta della funzione contenente dati immagine al modello in un'interazione:
Python

Chiamata di funzione con output strutturato
Per i modelli della serie Gemini 3, combina la chiamata di funzione con l'output strutturato per risposte formattate in modo coerente.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) remoto
L'API Interactions supporta la connessione a server MCP remoti per consentire al modello di accedere a strumenti e servizi esterni. Fornisci il server name e url nella configurazione degli strumenti.
Quando utilizzi Remote MCP, tieni presente i seguenti vincoli:
- Tipi di server: l'MCP remoto funziona solo con i server HTTP riproducibili in streaming. I server SSE (Server-Sent Events) non sono supportati.
- Denominazione: i nomi dei server MCP non devono includere il carattere
-. Utilizza invece i nomi dei serversnake_case.
| Campo | Tipo | Obbligatorio | Descrizione |
|---|---|---|---|
type |
string |
Sì | Deve essere "mcp_server". |
name |
string |
No | Un nome visualizzato per il server MCP. |
url |
string |
No | L'URL completo dell'endpoint del server MCP. |
headers |
object |
No | Coppie chiave-valore inviate come intestazioni HTTP con ogni richiesta al server (ad esempio, token di autenticazione). |
allowed_tools |
array |
No | Limita gli strumenti del server che l'agente può chiamare. |

Chiamate allo strumento di streaming
Quando utilizzi strumenti con lo streaming, il modello genera chiamate di funzione come
sequenza di eventi step.delta nello stream. Gli argomenti dello strumento possono essere trasmessi in streaming
come argomenti parziali utilizzando arguments. Devi aggregare questi delta per
ricostruire le chiamate agli strumenti complete prima di eseguirle.

Best practice
- Descrizioni di funzioni e parametri:sii chiaro e specifico.
- Denominazione:utilizza nomi descrittivi senza spazi o caratteri speciali.
- Tipizzazione forte:utilizza tipi specifici (numero intero, stringa, enum).
- Selezione degli strumenti:mantieni attivo un massimo di 10-20 strumenti.
- Prompt engineering: fornisci il contesto e le istruzioni.
- Convalida:convalida le chiamate di funzioni prima dell'esecuzione.
- Gestione degli errori:implementa una gestione degli errori efficace.
- Sicurezza:utilizza l'autenticazione appropriata per le API esterne.
Soluzioni alternative per i requisiti di testo pre-strumento
Problema:se il prompt richiede al modello di restituire testo strutturato (XML, YAML, JSON e così via) (ad es. <UPDATE>...</UPDATE>) immediatamente prima di effettuare una chiamata allo strumento, la chiamata allo strumento potrebbe occasionalmente non riuscire con Malformed_Function_Call.
Soluzioni:le seguenti soluzioni alternative risolvono il problema:
- PREFERITO: indica al modello di inserire le note pre-strumento all'interno di una chiamata di funzione
update()dedicata anziché in testo non elaborato (dettagli di seguito). - Chiedi al modello di scrivere le note come intestazioni Markdown (
# UPDATE,## PLAN) anziché come testo strutturato. - Non richiedere al modello di generare testo prima delle chiamate di strumenti.
Soluzione alternativa preferita: racchiudi le note di lavoro in una chiamata di funzione dedicata
Invece dell'istruzione originale:
Before calling a tool, in every response you MUST first output a single `<UPDATE>` part as specified, don't skip this part or any of required sub-tags within `<UPDATE>`.
Utilizza questa istruzione aggiornata:
Before calling any other tool, in every response you MUST first call `update` with all required parameters (previous_step, plan, next_step, external).
Aggiorna tutti i riferimenti al vecchio formato XML <UPDATE> nella richiesta del cliente. Poi aggiungi la dichiarazione di funzione corrispondente per la funzione di aggiornamento:
{
"name": "update",
"description": "Update working notes (previous step analysis, plan, next step, external note).",
"parameters": {
"type": "OBJECT",
"properties": {
"previous_step": {
"type": "STRING",
"description": "Key findings and outcomes since the previous step."
},
"plan": {
"type": "STRING",
"description": "The current status of the plan."
},
"next_step": {
"type": "STRING",
"description": "Brief explanation of the immediate next action according to the plan."
},
"external": {
"type": "STRING",
"description": "A short, plain-language note shown to the User about what you are ABOUT TO DO next."
}
},
"required": [
"previous_step",
"plan",
"next_step",
"external"
]
}
}
Il modello effettuerà quindi due chiamate nello stesso passaggio: la chiamata update() che sostituisce l'XML strutturato e la chiamata di funzione effettiva che vuole effettuare.
Note e limitazioni
- È supportato solo un sottoinsieme dello schema OpenAPI.
- Per la modalità
any, l'API potrebbe rifiutare schemi molto grandi o con molti livelli di nidificazione. - I tipi di parametri supportati in Python sono limitati.
