"I am really excited about this post as it's one of the most powerful changes I've seen to Google's Gemini APIs in quite some time. For a while now it's been really easy to perform searches against a document, or a group of documents. You would upload the file (or files), ask your questions, and that was all you needed."
"Gemini's new RAG support is centered around File Store. A File Store is simply a collection of documents. The APIs provide full control over them by letting you create, read, update, and delete. Files can be uploaded directly to a store, or you can use the "old" API for uploading files and then import it into a store. Within an existing store you can also get a list of files and add or delete. I don't believe you can "edit""
Gemini's RAG support centers on File Store, a permanent collection of documents that supports create, read, update, and delete operations. Files can be uploaded directly to a store or imported from the older file-upload API. Within a store, users can list, add, or remove files; editing requires deleting and re-uploading. File Store enables persistent document introspection over time and the rapid construction of basic retrieval-augmented generation systems. The practical usage will vary by application, from simple startup scripts that create stores and upload folders to more complex automation and management workflows. Code examples demonstrate the simplicity of these operations.
