Integrate Gemini API into Firebase Studio

We need to integrate Google’s Gemini AI capabilities directly into Firebase Studio. The primary objective is to provide a seamless experience for Firebase developers to leverage Gemini AI functionalities through a simple, native API.

Key Requirements:

  • Enable API interactions with Gemini directly within Firebase Cloud Functions and Extensions.
  • Provide secure, managed authentication and credential handling within Firebase.
  • Allow configuration via Firebase environment settings for easy setup.
  • Support standard Gemini features such as text generation, chat interactions, multimodal input handling, and embeddings.

Acceptance Criteria:

  • Firebase Cloud Functions should be able to securely call Gemini endpoints without external SDK or manual credential management.
  • Gemini interactions should be logged and monitored through Firebase analytics and logging tools.
  • Documentation and sample code for common Gemini use cases within Firebase should be provided.
  • Demonstrate basic Gemini integration functionality in Firebase Studio through an example project.

Priority: High

Impact: This integration will significantly streamline Firebase developers’ workflows, enabling advanced AI features within Firebase applications without complex setups or external dependencies.
