API de Interactions

La API de Interactions es una interfaz unificada para interactuar con modelos y agentes de Gemini. Simplifica la administración del estado, la organización de herramientas y las tareas de larga duración. Para obtener una vista completa del esquema de la API, consulta la referencia de la API.

En el siguiente ejemplo, se muestra cómo llamar a la API de Interactions con una instrucción de texto.

Python

from google import genai

client = genai.Client()

interaction =  client.interactions.create(
    model="gemini-3-pro-preview",
    input="Tell me a short joke about programming."
)

print(interaction.outputs[-1].text)

JavaScript

import { GoogleGenAI } from '@google/genai';

const client = new GoogleGenAI({});

const interaction =  await client.interactions.create({
    model: 'gemini-3-pro-preview',
    input: 'Tell me a short joke about programming.',
});

console.log(interaction.outputs[interaction.outputs.length - 1].text);

REST

curl -X POST "https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/interactions" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "x-goog-api-key: $GEMINI_API_KEY" \
-d '{
    "model": "gemini-3-pro-preview",
    "input": "Tell me a short joke about programming."
}'

Interacciones básicas

La API de Interactions está disponible a través de nuestros SDKs existentes. La forma más sencilla de interactuar con el modelo es proporcionar una instrucción de texto. input puede ser una cadena, una lista que contiene objetos de contenido o una lista de turnos con roles y objetos de contenido.

Python

from google import genai

client = genai.Client()

interaction =  client.interactions.create(
    model="gemini-2.5-flash",
    input="Tell me a short joke about programming."
)

print(interaction.outputs[-1].text)

JavaScript

import { GoogleGenAI } from '@google/genai';

const client = new GoogleGenAI({});

const interaction =  await client.interactions.create({
    model: 'gemini-2.5-flash',
    input: 'Tell me a short joke about programming.',
});

console.log(interaction.outputs[interaction.outputs.length - 1].text);

REST

curl -X POST "https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/interactions" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "x-goog-api-key: $GEMINI_API_KEY" \
-d '{
    "model": "gemini-2.5-flash",
    "input": "Tell me a short joke about programming."
}'

Conversación

Puedes crear conversaciones de varios turnos de dos maneras:

  • Con estado, haciendo referencia a una interacción anterior
  • Sin estado, proporcionando todo el historial de conversaciones

Conversación con estado

Pasa el id de la interacción anterior al parámetro previous_interaction_id para continuar una conversación.

Python

from google import genai

client = genai.Client()

# 1. First turn
interaction1 = client.interactions.create(
    model="gemini-2.5-flash",
    input="Hi, my name is Phil."
)
print(f"Model: {interaction1.outputs[-1].text}")

# 2. Second turn (passing previous_interaction_id)
interaction2 = client.interactions.create(
    model="gemini-2.5-flash",
    input="What is my name?",
    previous_interaction_id=interaction1.id
)
print(f"Model: {interaction2.outputs[-1].text}")

JavaScript

import { GoogleGenAI } from '@google/genai';

const client = new GoogleGenAI({});

// 1. First turn
const interaction1 = await client.interactions.create({
    model: 'gemini-2.5-flash',
    input: 'Hi, my name is Phil.'
});
console.log(`Model: ${interaction1.outputs[interaction1.outputs.length - 1].text}`);

// 2. Second turn (passing previous_interaction_id)
const interaction2 = await client.interactions.create({
    model: 'gemini-2.5-flash',
    input: 'What is my name?',
    previous_interaction_id: interaction1.id
});
console.log(`Model: ${interaction2.outputs[interaction2.outputs.length - 1].text}`);

REST

# 1. First turn
curl -X POST "https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/interactions" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "x-goog-api-key: $GEMINI_API_KEY" \
-d '{
    "model": "gemini-2.5-flash",
    "input": "Hi, my name is Phil."
}'

# 2. Second turn (Replace INTERACTION_ID with the ID from the previous interaction)
# curl -X POST "https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/interactions" \
# -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
# -H "x-goog-api-key: $GEMINI_API_KEY" \
# -d '{
#     "model": "gemini-2.5-flash",
#     "input": "What is my name?",
#     "previous_interaction_id": "INTERACTION_ID"
# }'

Recupera interacciones anteriores con estado

Usar la interacción id para recuperar turnos anteriores de la conversación

Python

previous_interaction = client.interactions.get("<YOUR_INTERACTION_ID>")

print(previous_interaction)

JavaScript

const previous_interaction = await client.interactions.get("<YOUR_INTERACTION_ID>");
console.log(previous_interaction);

REST

curl -X GET "https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/interactions/<YOUR_INTERACTION_ID>" \
-H "x-goog-api-key: $GEMINI_API_KEY"

Conversación sin estado

Puedes administrar el historial de conversaciones de forma manual en el cliente.

Python

from google import genai

client = genai.Client()

conversation_history = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "What are the three largest cities in Spain?"
    }
]

interaction1 = client.interactions.create(
    model="gemini-2.5-flash",
    input=conversation_history
)

print(f"Model: {interaction1.outputs[-1].text}")

conversation_history.append({"role": "model", "content": interaction1.outputs})
conversation_history.append({
    "role": "user", 
    "content": "What is the most famous landmark in the second one?"
})

interaction2 = client.interactions.create(
    model="gemini-2.5-flash",
    input=conversation_history
)

print(f"Model: {interaction2.outputs[-1].text}")

JavaScript

import { GoogleGenAI } from '@google/genai';

const client = new GoogleGenAI({});

const conversationHistory = [
    {
        role: 'user',
        content: "What are the three largest cities in Spain?"
    }
];

const interaction1 = await client.interactions.create({
    model: 'gemini-2.5-flash',
    input: conversationHistory
});

console.log(`Model: ${interaction1.outputs[interaction1.outputs.length - 1].text}`);

conversationHistory.push({ role: 'model', content: interaction1.outputs });
conversationHistory.push({
    role: 'user',
    content: "What is the most famous landmark in the second one?"
});

const interaction2 = await client.interactions.create({
    model: 'gemini-2.5-flash',
    input: conversationHistory
});

console.log(`Model: ${interaction2.outputs[interaction2.outputs.length - 1].text}`);

Cómo funciona la API de Interactions

La API de Interactions se diseñó en torno a un recurso central: Interaction. Un Interaction representa un turno completo en una conversación o tarea. Actúa como un registro de sesión, ya que contiene todo el historial de una interacción, incluidas todas las entradas del usuario, las reflexiones del modelo, las llamadas a herramientas, los resultados de las herramientas y los resultados finales del modelo.

Cuando llamas a interactions.create, creas un nuevo recurso Interaction.

De manera opcional, puedes usar el id de este recurso en una llamada posterior con el parámetro previous_interaction_id para continuar la conversación. El servidor usa este ID para recuperar el contexto completo, lo que te evita tener que volver a enviar todo el historial de chat. Esta administración de estado del servidor es opcional. También puedes operar en modo sin estado enviando el historial de conversación completo en cada solicitud.

Almacenamiento y retención de datos

De forma predeterminada, todos los objetos Interaction se almacenan (store=true) para simplificar el uso de las funciones de administración de estado del servidor (con previous_interaction_id), la ejecución en segundo plano (con background=true) y los fines de observabilidad.

  • Nivel pagado: Las interacciones se conservan durante 55 días.
  • Nivel gratuito: Las interacciones se conservan durante 1 día.

Si no quieres esto, puedes establecer store=false en tu solicitud. Este control es independiente de la administración del estado. Puedes inhabilitar el almacenamiento para cualquier interacción. Sin embargo, ten en cuenta que store=false no es compatible con background=true y evita el uso de previous_interaction_id en turnos posteriores.

Puedes borrar las interacciones almacenadas en cualquier momento con el método de eliminación que se encuentra en la Referencia de la API. Solo puedes borrar interacciones si conoces su ID.

Una vez que venza el período de retención, tus datos se borrarán automáticamente.

Los objetos de interacciones se procesan según las condiciones.

Prácticas recomendadas

  • Tasa de aciertos de caché: Usar previous_interaction_id para continuar las conversaciones permite que el sistema utilice con mayor facilidad el almacenamiento en caché implícito para el historial de conversaciones, lo que mejora el rendimiento y reduce los costos.
  • Combinación de interacciones: Tienes la flexibilidad de combinar interacciones del agente y del modelo en una conversación. Por ejemplo, puedes usar un agente especializado, como el agente de Deep Research, para la recopilación inicial de datos y, luego, usar un modelo estándar de Gemini para tareas de seguimiento, como resumir o reformatear, y vincular estos pasos con previous_interaction_id.

SDK

Puedes usar la versión más reciente de los SDKs de IA generativa de Google para acceder a la API de Interactions.

  • En Python, este es el paquete google-genai a partir de la versión 1.55.0.
  • En JavaScript, este es el paquete @google/genai a partir de la versión 1.33.0.

Puedes obtener más información para instalar los SDKs en la página Libraries.

Limitaciones

  • Estado beta: La API de Interactions está en versión beta o de vista previa. Las funciones y los esquemas pueden cambiar.
  • Funciones no admitidas: Las siguientes funciones aún no son compatibles, pero lo serán pronto:

  • Orden de salida: El orden del contenido de las herramientas integradas (google_search y url_context) a veces puede ser incorrecto, y el texto aparece antes de la ejecución y el resultado de la herramienta. Este es un problema conocido y se está trabajando en una solución.

  • Combinaciones de herramientas: Aún no se admite la combinación de MCP, llamadas a funciones y herramientas integradas, pero pronto estará disponible.

  • MCP remoto: Gemini 3 no admite MCP remoto. Esta función estará disponible pronto.

Cambios rotundos

Actualmente, la API de Interactions se encuentra en una etapa de versión beta inicial. Estamos desarrollando y perfeccionando de forma activa las capacidades de la API, los esquemas de recursos y las interfaces del SDK en función del uso en el mundo real y los comentarios de los desarrolladores.

Como resultado, pueden producirse cambios rotundos. Las actualizaciones pueden incluir cambios en lo siguiente:

  • Esquemas de entrada y salida.
  • Firmas de métodos y estructuras de objetos del SDK
  • Comportamientos específicos de las funciones

Para las cargas de trabajo de producción, debes seguir usando la API de generateContent estándar. Sigue siendo la ruta recomendada para las implementaciones estables y se seguirá desarrollando y manteniendo de forma activa.
