thinkingLevel con i modelli Gemini 2.5 (o di thinkingBudget con i modelli Gemini 3) può causare errori. Usa il parametro corretto per la versione del tuo modello.streamGenerateContent?alt=sse come operator per ricevere Server-Sent Events mentre il modello genera contenuti. Ogni evento SSE contiene una riga data: con un oggetto JSON GenerateContentResponse.
