Parameters
`servingConfig`	`string` Required. The resource name of the servingConfigs.search serving config, such as `projects//locations/global/collections/default_collection/engines//servingConfigs/default_serving_config`, or `projects//locations/global/collections/default_collection/dataStores//servingConfigs/default_serving_config`.

{
  "query": {
    object (Query)

    object (SafetySpec)

    object (RelatedQuestionsSpec)
  },

}

Fields
`query`	`object (Query)` Required. Current user query.
`session`	`string` The session resource name. Not required. When session field is not set, the API is in sessionless mode. We support auto session mode: users can use the wildcard symbol `-` as session ID. A new ID will be automatically generated and assigned.
`safetySpec`	`object (SafetySpec)` Model specification.
`relatedQuestionsSpec`	`object (RelatedQuestionsSpec)` Related questions specification.
`groundingSpec`	`object (GroundingSpec)` Optional. Grounding specification.
`answerGenerationSpec`	`object (AnswerGenerationSpec)` Answer generation specification.
`searchSpec`	`object (SearchSpec)` servingConfigs.search specification.
`queryUnderstandingSpec`	`object (QueryUnderstandingSpec)` Query understanding specification.
`asynchronousMode (deprecated)`	`boolean` Deprecated: This field is deprecated. Streaming Answer API will be supported. Asynchronous mode control. If enabled, the response will be returned with answer/session resource name without final answer. The API users need to do the polling to get the latest status of answer/session by calling `ConversationalSearchService.GetAnswer` or `ConversationalSearchService.GetSession` method.
`userPseudoId`	`string` A unique identifier for tracking visitors. For example, this could be implemented with an HTTP cookie, which should be able to uniquely identify a visitor on a single device. This unique identifier should not change if the visitor logs in or out of the website. This field should NOT have a fixed value such as `unknown_visitor`. The field must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 128 characters. Otherwise, an `INVALID_ARGUMENT` error is returned.
`userLabels`	`map (key: string, value: string)` The user labels applied to a resource must meet the following requirements: Each resource can have multiple labels, up to a maximum of 64. Each label must be a key-value pair. Keys have a minimum length of 1 character and a maximum length of 63 characters and cannot be empty. Values can be empty and have a maximum length of 63 characters. Keys and values can contain only lowercase letters, numeric characters, underscores, and dashes. All characters must use UTF-8 encoding, and international characters are allowed. The key portion of a label must be unique. However, you can use the same key with multiple resources. Keys must start with a lowercase letter or international character. See Google Cloud Document for more details.
