VERSION

version 0.003

SYNOPSIS

my $exa = Net::Async::WebSearch::Provider::Exa->new(
  api_key => $ENV{EXA_API_KEY},
);

DESCRIPTION

Provider for https://exa.ai, a neural (embeddings-based) search API. Parses the results array from the JSON response. Snippet text is requested via contents.text in the POST body — without it Exa returns hits carrying no passage text at all.

API KEY

Sign up at https://dashboard.exa.ai. The API key is issued in the account dashboard and sent as the x-api-key request header.

api_key

Required. Sent as x-api-key.

endpoint

Override the endpoint URL. Default https://api.exa.ai/search.

Honours limit (numResults, 1-100). Exa has no native language, region or safesearch parameters, so those options are silently ignored. Always requests contents.text so results carry a snippet.
