Input
Parameter defines the prompt you want to send to Google Gemini.
Parameter defines the token used to continue a Google Gemini conversation. Pass this token with a new `q` to send a follow-up prompt that includes the previous prompts and answers as context (multi-turn). The token is returned by the API from your previous request using our Google Gemini API. Gemini keeps a conversation only for a limited time, so the token **expires**: send the follow-up soon after the previous request.
Parameter defines the fields you want to include in the output, reducing payload size for faster response. See the JSON Restrictor documentation for more details.
