Editors Pick Agentic AI Technology AI Shorts Artificial Intelligence New Releases Software Engineering If you ve ever built a production AI pipeline that runs long jobs — processing thousands of prompts overnight, kicking off Deep Research agent, or generating a long video — you ve almost certainly dealt with the polling problem. Your code sits in a loop, firing requests every few seconds asking, Is the job done yet? It s wasteful, it
Google introduced event-driven Webhooks for the Gemini API — a push-based notification system that eliminates the need for inefficient polling. The feature is available now for all developers using the Gemini API and targets a core pain point in agentic and high-volume AI workflows.
To understand the problem, it helps to know what Long-Running Operation (LRO) is. Webhooks allow the Gemini API to push real-time notifications to your server when asynchronous or Long-Running Operations complete, replacing the need to poll the API for status updates and reducing latency and overhead.
