Gemini API

  • Feature Request: Allow Gemini to natively resolve and parse shortened Google Maps URLs (maps.app.goo.gl) shared by users.

  • ​User Impact: Enhances user experience for itinerary planning, travel recommendations, and local discovery without forcing manual text entry.

  • ​Proposed Solution: Integrate a URL-expansion middleware or dedicated Google Maps API lookup tool into the model’s function-calling pipeline to resolve redirects securely within the sandbox.
