summary: >
Creates a model response. Provide [text](/docs/guides/text) or
[image](/docs/guides/images) inputs to generate
[text](/docs/guides/text)
or [JSON](/docs/guides/structured-outputs) outputs. Have the model call
your own [custom code](/docs/guides/function-calling) or use built-in
[tools](/docs/guides/tools) like [web
search](/docs/guides/tools-web-search)
or [file search](/docs/guides/tools-file-search) to use your own data
as input for the model's response.
