I was able to use Tools with Vertex AI api but it seems to be missing for AI Studio. Any reason why? What is the current workaround for this? I want to ground Gemini’s responses and provide accurate answers to users.

Tools (function calling) is available at service endpoint [https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/](https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/)  
The documentation is here [https://ai.google.dev/api/rest/v1beta/Tool](https://ai.google.dev/api/rest/v1beta/Tool)  
Hope this is helpful.
