Google Enforces the Interactions API for its Gemini Models
Google DeepMind has announced that the Interactions API is now the default interface for Gemini models and agents. This API, in beta since December 2025, is now generally available and replaces the old generateContent interface in Google AI Studio along with all associated documentation. The old API is still operational, but new features for agents will now only be accessible through the Interactions API. "Interactions paves the way for a new era of agents," writes Logan Kilpatrick, head of developer relations at Google. Google has released a migration guide to facilitate this transition.
Recent additions include:
- Managed agents with their own Linux sandbox
- Background execution for long-running tasks
- Tool chaining with Google Search and Maps
- Media generation for images, music, and speech
Google has also streamlined the schema since the beta version. The previous role structure with labels like "user" and "model" has now been replaced by typed steps, where each action, from user input to function calls, is defined as a distinct step. Developers can choose between Flex mode and Priority mode. Flex mode reduces costs by 50%, while Priority mode optimizes speed.
