Note: last link from Nikkei Asia doesn’t exist on website
Is there a way to natively output the links from grounded search in the python output? This would greatly improved output’s trustworthiness

response.to_json_dict()["candidates"][0]["grounding_metadata"]["grounding_chunks"]

It should include something similar to the following
google_search_tool = Tool(google_search=GoogleSearch())
generate_content_config = types.GenerateContentConfig(
thinking_config=types.Th…
