Integrations
Google Gemini
Use Google's Gemini models for answer generation, with an OpenAI key for embeddings.
Google's Gemini models generate the answers answerLoops drafts. This integration covers chat only — knowledge-base search still needs an OpenAI key for embeddings alongside it.
Available on every plan. Usage bills to your Google AI account.
1. Get an API key
Create a key in Google AI Studio. The free tier is generous for evaluation; add billing for production traffic.
2. Configure in answerLoops
- Settings → AI Model → Edit (owner or admin).
- Chat provider: Google Gemini.
- Model ID: e.g.
gemini-2.5-flash,gemini-2.5-pro,gemini-2.0-flash— the field suggests current options; see the Gemini models list for exact names. - API key: paste your Google AI Studio key.
- Embeddings: leave the provider on OpenAI and enter an OpenAI API key in the embedding key field — required, or knowledge-base search and KB imports fail after you save.
- Click Test connection, then Save.
