Request

This endpoint expects an object.
vectorlist of doubles or objectRequired
Vector data separator for named and unnamed modes Unnamed mode: { "vector": [1.0, 2.0, 3.0] } or named mode: { "vector": { "vector": [1.0, 2.0, 3.0], "name": "image-embeddings" } }
limitintegerRequired
Max number of result to return
shard_keystring or integer or list of strings or integers or anyOptional

paramsobject or anyOptional
Additional search params
offsetintegerOptional
Offset of the first result to return. May be used to paginate results. Note: large offset values may cause performance issues.
with_payloadboolean or list of strings or object or anyOptional
Select which payload to return with the response. Default is false.
with_vectorboolean or list of strings or anyOptional
Options for specifying which vectors to include into response. Default is false.
score_thresholddoubleOptional
Define a minimal score threshold for the result. If defined, less similar results will not be returned. Score of the returned result might be higher or smaller than the threshold depending on the Distance function used. E.g. for cosine similarity only higher scores will be returned.
