user in order to query image info, modify the image and use the search routes.



The  in the response of the /upload route will be used for all other routes. Store the visual_id in your database and map it to your image identification method for easy reference

    The image can be included in the Bria public gallery (is_private=false) or only in the Bria gallery of your organization (is_private=true). This parameter is optional and the default value is true.
