Google Gen AI SDK documentation
In order to have faster performance, you may install google-genai[aiohttp]. In Gen AI SDK we configure trust_env=True to match with the default behavior of httpx. Additional args of aiohttp.ClientSession.request() (see _RequestOptions args) can be passed through the following way: http_options = types.HttpOptions( async_client_args={'cookies': ..., 'ssl': ...}, ) client=Client(..., http_options=http_options) Both httpx and aiohttp libraries use urllib.request.getproxies from environment variables.

For python; adding "aio" when declaring the client will expose the async version of the functions. chat = client.aio.chats.create(model='gemini-2.0-flash-001') response = await chat.send_message('tell me a story') print(response.text) More info here: https://googleapis.github.io/python-genai/index.html#id6
