# Create an Google AI Studio inference endpoint

Availability: 8.15+

## Paths

- `PUT` `/_inference/{task_type}/{googleaistudio_inference_id}`

- [Api key auth](/elastic/docs-builder/docs/4371/api/doc/elasticsearch/v9/authentication#apikeyauth)
- [Basic auth](/elastic/docs-builder/docs/4371/api/doc/elasticsearch/v9/authentication#basicauth)
- [Bearer auth](/elastic/docs-builder/docs/4371/api/doc/elasticsearch/v9/authentication#bearerauth)

#### Path Parameters

- `task_type` (enum GoogleAiStudioTaskType)
  The type of the inference task that the model will perform.
  Values: `completion`, `text_embedding`
- `googleaistudio_inference_id` (string Id)
  The unique identifier of the inference endpoint.

## Description

Create an inference endpoint to perform an inference task with the `googleaistudio` service.

## Required authorization

* Cluster privileges: `manage_inference`

## Query String Parameters

- `timeout` (string Duration · default: 30s)
  Specifies the amount of time to wait for the inference endpoint to be created.

## Request Body

`application/json`

- `chunking_settings` ({} InferenceChunkingSettings) — optional
  The chunking configuration object.
Applies only to the `text_embedding` task type.
Not applicable to the `completion` task type.
  - `max_chunk_size` (number · default: 250) — optional
    The maximum size of a chunk in words.
This value cannot be lower than `20` (for `sentence` strategy) or `10` (for `word` strategy).
This value should not exceed the window size for the associated model.
  - `overlap` (number · default: 100) — optional
    The number of overlapping words for chunks.
It is applicable only to a `word` chunking strategy.
This value cannot be higher than half the `max_chunk_size` value.
  - `sentence_overlap` (number · default: 1) — optional
    The number of overlapping sentences for chunks.
It is applicable only for a `sentence` chunking strategy.
It can be either `1` or `0`.
  - `separator_group` (string) — optional
    Only applicable to the `recursive` strategy and required when using it.

Sets a predefined list of separators in the saved chunking settings based on the selected text type.
Values can be `markdown` or `plaintext`.

Using this parameter is an alternative to manually specifying a custom `separators` list.
  - `separators` ([] string) — optional
    Only applicable to the `recursive` strategy and required when using it.

A list of strings used as possible split points when chunking text.

Each string can be a plain string or a regular expression (regex) pattern.
The system tries each separator in order to split the text, starting from the first item in the list.

After splitting, it attempts to recombine smaller pieces into larger chunks that stay within
the `max_chunk_size` limit, to reduce the total number of chunks generated.
  - `strategy` (string · default: sentence) — optional
    The chunking strategy: `sentence`, `word`, `none` or `recursive`.

 * If `strategy` is set to `recursive`, you must also specify:

- `max_chunk_size`
- either `separators` or`separator_group`

Learn more about different chunking strategies in the linked documentation.
- `service` (enum GoogleAiServiceType) — required
  The type of service supported for the specified task type. In this case, `googleaistudio`.
  Values: `googleaistudio`
- `service_settings` ({} GoogleAiStudioServiceSettings) — required
  Settings used to install the inference model. These settings are specific to the `googleaistudio` service.
  - `api_key` (string) — required
    A valid API key of your Google Gemini account.
  - `model_id` (string) — required
    The name of the model to use for the inference task.
Refer to the Google documentation for the list of supported models.
  - `rate_limit` ({} RateLimitSetting) — optional
    This setting helps to minimize the number of rate limit errors returned from Google AI Studio.
By default, the `googleaistudio` service sets the number of requests allowed per minute to 360.
    - `requests_per_minute` (number) — optional
      The number of requests allowed per minute.
By default, the number of requests allowed per minute is set by each service as follows:

* `alibabacloud-ai-search` service: `1000`
* `amazonbedrock` service: `240`
* `anthropic` service: `50`
* `azureaistudio` service: `240`
* `azureopenai` service and task type `text_embedding`: `1440`
* `azureopenai` service and task types `completion` or `chat_completion`: `120`
* `cohere` service: `10000`
* `contextualai` service: `1000`
* `elastic` service and task type `chat_completion`: `240`
* `fireworksai` service: `6000`
* `googleaistudio` service: `360`
* `googlevertexai` service: `30000`
* `hugging_face` service: `3000`
* `jinaai` service: `2000`
* `llama` service: `3000`
* `mistral` service: `240`
* `openai` service and task type `text_embedding`: `3000`
* `openai` service and task type `completion`: `500`
* `openshift_ai` service: `3000`
* `voyageai` service: `2000`
* `watsonxai` service: `120`
