Concerns About API Text Preservation in App Development

·Sep 17, 2025 04:32 AM·

Hello, I'm continuing to build my app using the API, but i've noticed something, like even if i place preserve text, even in the web browser prompt, gamma still adds and sometimes alot of info on its own, is this normal?

I am looking to do the same thing this is what i got, havent tested it yet Use the textMode parameter set to preserve—this tells the API to retain your original text instead of rewriting or summarising it developers.gamma.app. To lock it down completely, add an additionalInstructions value such as “do not modify the text” so the system won’t even restructure it.

Hi there, we currently have a bug with Preserve that we're working on fixing. In the meantime try this workaround: In the additionalInstructions parameter, add: "Do not add any text. Keep the text as is." Similar to what Alaa stated above.
