Overview

For access to the AI Search API (excluding the 'Caption' endpoint), please Contact Us

Bria's AI Search API equips builders with advanced visual search capabilities that go beyond traditional label or keyword matching.

The API enables searching through registered images using either text queries or image references, with results sorted by match scores.

Developers can leverage features including image captioning, similarity search, and search refinements through style, atmosphere, and camera angle filters.

Search by text

Request

Description

By using the Search Route, you can utilize Bria's generative search capabilities, which don't require labels or keywords. The user can send any text query and receive relevant images that match the query.

The Search Route returns the images, sorted by the match score, from highest match to lowest match. The images are returned in batches, and you can specify how many images to receive in one batch, and which batch to receive in each call.

Search will only work on images that have been onboarded using the register endpoint. Note: To use this endpoint, please Contact Us.

Query
querystring

the text query for which the user is looking for matching images.

Example: query=woman traveling in the world

Example: num_results_per_page=1
pageinteger

which batch of images you would like to receive in the current call. Synthetic results will only be included in page no. 1. The default value is 1. For each query, we support 800 results, so if you set num_results_per_page=50, you will have 16 pages of results.

Example: page=1

results[].​visual_idstring

visual id of the image, documented in Bria.

Example: "a169a6862f24de75"
