Google Gemini not using tools correctly or at all

[macomuck]

Hello guys, quick question.

Is Google Gemini 2.0 Flash working well for you?

In my case it’s not using tools correctly.

Anyone else encountering this problem?

• n8n version: The lastest
• Database (default: SQLite): Default
• n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): Default
• Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): n8n cloud
• Operating system: Windows 11

Yes, I’ve gone through the same problem so I change to openai

This is the error I’m getting.
I don’t understand why I would need to use dynamic parameter.
I’m using {{$fromAi}} basically everywhere, even if I change it all to dynamic parameter, the agent does not understand the tools.
