Google Gemini 2.5 Flash parameters

These are the parameters modelparams.dev tracks for Google Gemini 2.5 Flash. Each row gives the type, default, valid range or values, and the conditions that gate it. It's the same data the JSON API serves.

Length 1 param
Parameter Type Default Description Condition
Max output tokens
generationConfig.maxOutputTokens
integer (1…65536) Maximum number of tokens to include in a response candidate.
Sampling 4 params
Parameter Type Default Description Condition
Temperature
generationConfig.temperature
number (0…2 step 0.1) 1 Controls randomness. Lower values make outputs more focused; higher values make them more varied.
Top P
generationConfig.topP
number (0…1 step 0.01) 0.95 Controls nucleus sampling by limiting generation to tokens within the selected cumulative probability.
Top K
generationConfig.topK
integer (0…+∞) 64 Limits token sampling to the top K most likely next tokens.
Seed
generationConfig.seed
integer Optional seed used for decoding when reproducible sampling is desired.
Reasoning 2 params
Parameter Type Default Description Condition
Thinking budget
generationConfig.thinkingConfig.thinkingBudget
integer (-1…24576) -1 Number of thinking tokens Gemini should use; 0 disables thinking and -1 uses dynamic thinking.
Include thoughts
generationConfig.thinkingConfig.includeThoughts
boolean false Controls whether Gemini returns available thought summaries in the response parts.
Output 1 param
Parameter Type Default Description Condition
Response MIME type
generationConfig.responseMimeType
enum (text/plain | application/json) "text/plain" MIME type for generated text candidates.

modelparams.dev is an open, community-maintained catalog of model parameters. Each entry shows the knobs you can turn — type, default, range, and the conditions that gate it.

The same model accessed via an API key and via a subscription usually exposes a different set of parameters. We list both as separate entries so the data stays honest.

Catalog API

The full catalog is static JSON, CORS-enabled, served from the edge.

curl https://modelparams.dev/api/v1/models.json

Each entry is keyed by provider/model for API-key variants; subscription variants append -subscription.

If you only need the params for one model contract, use the providerless endpoint. Subscription contracts are model slugs with -subscription.

curl https://modelparams.dev/api/v1/params/gpt-5.5.json
curl https://modelparams.dev/api/v1/params/gpt-5.5-subscription.json

Single model

curl https://modelparams.dev/api/v1/models/anthropic/claude-opus-4-7.json
curl https://modelparams.dev/api/v1/models/anthropic/claude-opus-4-7-subscription.json

JSON Schema

Every entry validates against a JSON Schema you can use in your editor or pipeline.

curl https://modelparams.dev/api/v1/schema.json

Add this header to any YAML you author for autocomplete in VS Code:

# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://modelparams.dev/api/v1/schema.json

Logos

Provider logos are available at /assets/logos/{provider}.svg where {provider} is the provider slug. They use currentColor so they inherit your text color.

curl https://modelparams.dev/assets/logos/anthropic.svg

Logos are sourced from the models.dev repo (MIT) and used under nominative fair use.

Contribute

The data lives in YAML under models/{provider}/{model}-{auth}.yaml in the GitHub repo. Open a PR; CI validates against the schema and rebuilds.
