Abstract

The Gemini API generates different outputs depending on the prompts. This report explains how to use function calling in the new Gemini 1.5 API to control the output format (string, number, etc.) within a script during a chat session. This allows for more flexibility in using the Gemini API’s results.

Introduction

The appearance of Gemini has already brought a wave of innovation to various fields. When the Gemini API returns a response, the format of the response is highly dependent on the input text provided as a prompt. For instance, to retrieve the output value as a JSON object, you need to explicitly include a prompt like “Return JSON” within your input. However, there can be situations where the API doesn’t return the data in the desired format.

Overview

This Google Apps Script helps identify and analyze regions of colored cells in a Google Sheet.

Description

Recently, I encountered a situation where I needed to identify colored cell regions in Google Sheets. For instance, consider the following spreadsheet:

The region enclosed by the red cells (B2:D4) is a rectangle. In this case, the closed region can be easily identified using a simple script in Google Sheets. However, the region enclosed by the blue cells (H3, I2, J2,,,) is more complex. It consists of multiple disconnected cells that form a single shape. Identifying such irregular shapes using a script can be challenging.

Abstract

This report explores using Gemini, a new AI model, to parse invoices in Gmail attachments. Traditional text searching proved unreliable due to invoice format variations. Gemini’s capabilities can potentially overcome this inconsistency and improve invoice data extraction.

Introduction

After Gemini, a large language model from Google AI, has been released, it has the potential to be used for modifying various situations, including information extraction from documents. In my specific case, I work with invoices in PDF format. Until now, I relied on the direct search by a Google Apps Script to achieve this task. The script’s process involved:

Abstract

Gemini API on Vertex AI/Studio unlocks new applications with data retrieval and content generation through function calls. This report explores using the API for reverse engineering with a sample interpreter in Google Apps Script.

Introduction

The recent release of the LLM model Gemini as an API on Vertex AI and Google AI Studio unlocks a vast potential for new applications and methodologies. It significantly expands capabilities across diverse situations, paving the way for groundbreaking applications. Notably, the Gemini API allows data retrieval and content generation through function calls. In my recent report, “Guide to Function Calling with Gemini and Google Apps Script”, I explore function calls as a launchpad for various applications. This report showcases reverse engineering using the Gemini API, with a sample interpreter for creating sample values from a given regex using Google Apps Script.
