Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
allowSourceExpansionbooleanNoDeprecated / ignored — Exa is a single index. Use scope for deliberate scoping.
date_fromstringNoStart date filter (YYYY-MM-DD)
date_tostringNoEnd date filter (YYYY-MM-DD)
filterReferencesbooleanNoDefault true upstream — drop off-topic refs. Set false for raw/unfiltered refs (debug).
includeRejectedbooleanNoDefault false — when true, completed responses include rejectedReferences[] and relevance.reason on rejected refs.
maxResultsnumberNoMax results to return
modestringNoSearch depth One of: fast, deep.
perSourceLimitnumberNoDeprecated / ignored — Exa is a single index (no per-source cap).
privacyModestringNoOptional plaintext privacy mode forwarded to Aubrai when provided.
questionstringYesResearch question
retrievalProfilestringNoOptional retrieval profile: "default" or "litqa-recall". One of: default, litqa-recall.
scopestringNoOpt-in scoping mapped to Exa domains: preprints (biorxiv/medrxiv/arxiv), no-preprints (exclude those), trials (clinicaltrials.gov). Omit for full index. One of: preprints, no-preprints, trials.
sourceProfilestringNoOptional source profile. Omit for Aubrai defaults. One of: fast-default, deep-default, clinical, paperclip, litqa-recall.
sourcesarray of stringNoDeprecated / ignored — retrieval is one Exa index (already covers pubmed/arxiv/biorxiv/etc.). Use scope instead.
tagModestringNoUse fanout for independent tracked-term searches; use combined only when tags must be searched together. One of: fanout, combined.
tagsarray of stringNoTracked terms for radar-style searches. With tagMode=fanout, each tag is searched separately.
yearstringNoFilter by publication year

Call it from code

The curl command shows the payment challenge. The JavaScript and Python versions pay and call, and never pay more than $0.03.
