Method Details

close()
Close httplib2 connections.
converse(name, body=None, x__xgafv=None)
Converses a conversation.

Args:
  name: string, Required. The resource name of the Conversation to get. Format: `projects/{project}/locations/{location}/collections/{collection}/dataStores/{data_store_id}/conversations/{conversation_id}`. Use `projects/{project}/locations/{location}/collections/{collection}/dataStores/{data_store_id}/conversations/-` to activate auto session mode, which automatically creates a new conversation inside a ConverseConversation session. (required)
  body: object, The request body.
    The object takes the form of:

{ # Request message for ConversationalSearchService.ConverseConversation method.
  "boostSpec": { # Boost specification to boost certain documents. # Boost specification to boost certain documents in search results which may affect the converse response. For more information on boosting, see [Boosting](https://cloud.google.com/retail/docs/boosting#boost)
    "conditionBoostSpecs": [ # Condition boost specifications. If a document matches multiple conditions in the specifictions, boost scores from these specifications are all applied and combined in a non-linear way. Maximum number of specifications is 20.
      { # Boost applies to documents which match a condition.
        "boost": 3.14, # Strength of the condition boost, which should be in [-1, 1]. Negative boost means demotion. Default is 0.0. Setting to 1.0 gives the document a big promotion. However, it does not necessarily mean that the boosted document will be the top result at all times, nor that other documents will be excluded. Results could still be shown even when none of them matches the condition. And results that are significantly more relevant to the search query can still trump your heavily favored but irrelevant documents. Setting to -1.0 gives the document a big demotion. However, results that are deeply relevant might still be shown. The document will have an upstream battle to get a fairly high ranking, but it is not blocked out completely. Setting to 0.0 means no boost applied. The boosting condition is ignored. Only one of the (condition, boost) combination or the boost_control_spec below are set. If both are set then the global boost is ignored and the more fine-grained boost_control_spec is applied.
        "boostControlSpec": { # Specification for custom ranking based on customer specified attribute value. It provides more controls for customized ranking than the simple (condition, boost) combination above. # Complex specification for custom ranking based on customer defined attribute value.

          "controlPoints": [ # The control points used to define the curve. The monotonic function (defined through the interpolation_type above) passes through the control points listed here.
            { # The control points used to define the curve. The curve defined through these control points can only be monotonically increasing or decreasing(constant values are acceptable).
              "attributeValue": "A String", # Can be one of: 1. The numerical field value. 2. The duration spec for freshness: The value must be formatted as an XSD `dayTimeDuration` value (a restricted subset of an ISO 8601 duration value). The pattern for this is: `nDnM]`.
              "boostAmount": 3.14, # The value between -1 to 1 by which to boost the score if the attribute_value evaluates to the value specified above.
            },
          ],
          "fieldName": "A String", # The name of the field whose value will be used to determine the boost amount.

Filter expression is case-sensitive. This will be used to filter search results which may affect the summary response. If this field is unrecognizable, an `INVALID_ARGUMENT` is returned. Filtering in Vertex AI Search is done by mapping the LHS filter key to a key property defined in the Vertex AI Search backend -- this mapping is defined by the customer in their schema.

  "summarySpec": { # A specification for configuring a summary returned in a search response. # A specification for configuring the summary returned in the response.
    "ignoreAdversarialQuery": True or False, # Specifies whether to filter out adversarial queries. The default value is `false`. Google employs search-query classification to detect adversarial queries. No summary is returned if the search query is classified as an adversarial query. For example, a user might ask a question regarding negative comments about the company or submit a query designed to generate unsafe, policy-violating output. If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating summaries for adversarial queries and return fallback messages instead.
    "ignoreJailBreakingQuery": True or False, # Optional. Specifies whether to filter out jail-breaking queries. The default value is `false`. Google employs search-query classification to detect jail-breaking queries. No summary is returned if the search query is classified as a jail-breaking query. A user might add instructions to the query to change the tone, style, language, content of the answer, or ask the model to act as a different entity, e.g. "Reply in the tone of a competing company's CEO". If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating summaries for jail-breaking queries and return fallback messages instead.
    "ignoreLowRelevantContent": True or False, # Specifies whether to filter out queries that have low relevance. The default value is `false`. If this field is set to `false`, all search results are used regardless of relevance to generate answers. If set to `true`, only queries with high relevance search results will generate answers.
    "ignoreNonSummarySeekingQuery": True or False, # Specifies whether to filter out queries that are not summary-seeking. The default value is `false`. Google employs search-query classification to detect summary-seeking queries. No summary is returned if the search query is classified as a non-summary seeking query. For example, `why is the sky blue` and `Who is the best soccer player in the world?` are summary-seeking queries, but `SFO airport` and `world cup 2026` are not. They are most likely navigational queries. If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating summaries for non-summary seeking queries and return fallback messages instead.
    "includeCitations": True or False, # Specifies whether to include citations in the summary. The default value is `false`. When this field is set to `true`, summaries include in-line citation numbers. Example summary including citations: BigQuery is Google Cloud's fully managed and completely serverless enterprise data warehouse [1]. BigQuery supports all data types, works across clouds, and has built-in machine learning and business intelligence, all within a unified platform [2, 3]. The citation numbers refer to the returned search results and are 1-indexed. For example, [1] means that the sentence is attributed to the first search result. [2, 3] means that the sentence is attributed to both the second and third search results.

Uses a generally available, fine-tuned model. For more information, see [Answer generation model versions and lifecycle](https://cloud.google.com/generative-ai-app-builder/docs/answer-generation-models). * `preview`: string.

    },
    "summaryResultCount": 42, # The number of top results to generate the summary from. If the number of results returned is less than `summaryResultCount`, the summary is generated from all of the results. At most 10 results for documents mode, or 50 for chunks mode, can be used to generate a summary. The chunks mode is used when SearchRequest.ContentSearchSpec.search_result_mode is set to CHUNKS.
    "useSemanticChunks": True or False, # If true, answer will be generated from most relevant chunks from top search results. This feature will improve summary quality. Note that with this feature enabled, not all top search results will be referenced and included in the reference list, so the citation source index only points to the search results listed in the reference list.

Values can be empty and have a maximum length of 63 characters. * Keys and values can contain only lowercase letters, numeric characters, underscores, and dashes. All characters must use UTF-8 encoding, and international characters are allowed. * The key portion of a label must be unique. However, you can use the same key with multiple resources. * Keys must start with a lowercase letter or international character.
