# Gemini Cloud Assist A2A investigation AI agent

# Gemini Cloud Assist A2A investigation AI agent {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
This AI agent investigates Google Cloud alerts by driving a Gemini Cloud Assist investigation through Google's A2A investigation endpoint. It starts an investigation, polls task status, and retrieves the structured investigation result with
root-cause hypotheses and next steps.

## Workflow {#itom-obs-gemini-cloud-assist-a2a-investigation-agent-ai-agent__zsmdlwierhjt}

1. Identify what to investigate. The agent uses the sys_id of the provided Google Cloud alert to determine what to investigate.

2. Use Gemini Cloud Assist to investigate the alert and gather relevant information.
3. Return the findings, including root-cause hypotheses and recommended actions.
