| Hello 布丁, We’re writing to inform you that the following Imagen 4 model endpoints will be discontinued on August 17, 2026:
- Imagen 4 Standard (
imagen-4.0-generate-001)
- Imagen 4 Ultra (
imagen-4.0-ultra-generate-001)
- Imagen 4 Fast (
imagen-4.0-fast-generate-001)
To ensure your application continues to function without interruptions and achieve greater stability, migrate your workloads to the newer model endpoints. What you need to knowAfter the discontinuation date, any API calls sent to the legacy endpoints will fail and return a 404 - Not Found error. The newer Gemini image generation models provide higher capabilities and better performance at the same cost. Please refer to the table below for the recommended migration paths:
