Google Gen AI .Net SDK provides an interface for developers to integrate Google's generative models into their .Net applications. It supports the Gemini Developer API and Vertex AI APIs.

Install

dotnet add package Google.GenAI

Imports

using Google.GenAI;
using Google.GenAI.Types;

Create a client

Please run one of the following code blocks to create a client for different services (Gemini Developer API or Vertex AI).

using Google.GenAI;

//  Only run this block for Gemini Developer API
var client = new Client(apiKey: apiKey);

using Google.GenAI;

// only run this block for Vertex AI API
client = new Client(
    project: project, location: location, vertexAI: true
)

(Optional) Using environment variables:

You can create a client by configuring the necessary environment variables. Configuration setup instructions depends on whether you're using the Gemini Developer API or the Gemini API in Vertex AI.

Gemini Developer API: Set the GOOGLE_API_KEY. It will automatically be picked up by the client.

export GEMINI_API_KEY='your-api-key'

Gemini API on Vertex AI: Set GOOGLE_GENAI_USE_VERTEXAI, GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT and GOOGLE_CLOUD_LOCATION, as shown below:

export GOOGLE_GENAI_USE_VERTEXAI=true
export GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT='your-project-id'
export GOOGLE_CLOUD_LOCATION='us-central1'

using Google.GenAI;

client = new Client();

Types

Parameter types are specified in the Google.GenAI.Types namespace.

Models

The client.Models module exposes model inferencing. See Create a client section above to initialize a client.

Generate Content

With simple text content
var response = await client.Models.GenerateContentAsync(
        model: "gemini-2.0-flash", contents: "why is the sky blue?"
    );
