Gemini 3.1 flash image preview shutdown: Sume model ids
Google lists gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview and gemini-3-pro-image-preview for June 25, 2026 shutdown. Sume callers use catalog ids like google/nano-banana-2.

Google's deprecations page lists gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview and gemini-3-pro-image-preview with a June 25, 2026 shutdown date, and names gemini-3.1-flash-image and gemini-3-pro-image as the replacements. Calls through Sume do not use those ids: you send a catalog id such as google/nano-banana-2.
What does Google's deprecations page say?
The page defines a shutdown as the model being completely turned off, with the endpoint no longer available. It lists the two preview image ids below.
| Preview id | Shutdown date | Replacement |
|---|---|---|
gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview | June 25, 2026 | gemini-3.1-flash-image |
gemini-3-pro-image-preview | June 25, 2026 | gemini-3-pro-image |
Which id do I use on Sume?
Sume's image catalog lists google/nano-banana-2, and the bare router id nano-banana-2 is accepted as an alias for it. Sume serves every catalog model through a single sume endpoint in v1, and GET /v1/images/models shows what is available. See the Image API docs.
Do I have to migrate anything on Sume?
If your Sume code already sends a catalog id, nothing here names a preview id to change. If a script still carries a Gemini preview string in a model field, replace it with a catalog id from GET /v1/images/models. Related: the earlier Gemini 2.5 Flash Image shutdown.
What if I do not care which family runs?
model: "sume/auto" lets Sume pick the family and never discloses which one ran, so use a catalog id when you need a specific model.
