Inputs

idsarray
(Deprecated alias for 'urls') A list of document IDs or URLs. Use 'urls' parameter instead for consistency with the Exa API.
text
Controls text extraction. Accepts a boolean or a `TextOptions` object. If `True` (the default for this tool), sends Exa's documented `text=true` mode and extracts full-page text using default settings. If `False` or `None`, no text is extracted. Provide a `TextOptions` object to…
urlsarray
A list of fully qualified URLs (e.g., 'https://example.com/article') or document IDs (strings obtained from Exa search results) for which to retrieve content. At least one URL or ID must be provided.
extrasobject
Configuration for extracting additional metadata from documents.
summary
Controls AI-generated summary extraction. Accepts a boolean or `SummaryOptions`. If `True`, generates a summary; if `False` or `None`, no summary. Use `SummaryOptions` for custom settings (e.g., `query`, `schema`).
subpagesinteger
Number of subpages to crawl per URL. Enables crawling linked pages within a site in one request. Defaults to 0 (no subpage crawling).
highlights
Controls highlight extraction. Accepts a boolean or `HighlightOptions`. If `True`, extracts AI highlights (default settings); if `False` or `None`, no highlights. Use `HighlightOptions` for custom settings (e.g., `query`, `max_characters`).
maxAgeHoursinteger
Controls content freshness. `0` = always livecrawl, `-1` = never livecrawl (cache only), `None` or positive integer = livecrawl as fallback if cached content is older than specified hours.
subpageTarget
Keywords to prioritize for subpage selection when crawling subpages. Can be a single string or list of strings. Only relevant when `subpages` > 0.
livecrawlTimeoutinteger
Timeout in milliseconds for livecrawl operations. Recommended: 10000-15000 when forcing livecrawl. Defaults to 10000.
