Tools

Delete Enrichment

Remove an enrichment from a Webset. Cancels a running enrichment and removes its existing enrichment results; this does not undo consumed credits or history.

Get Webset Item

Retrieve a specific item from a Webset by its ID, including all properties and enrichment results.

Find Similar

Find web pages similar in meaning to a given URL. Useful for competitor analysis, discovering related content, or building recommendation systems. Supports filtering by domains, dates, and text content. Optionally retrieve full text, highlights, and summaries. Exa documents this endpoint as deprecated while retaining it; prefer Web Search with a query describing the source for new workflows.

List Websets

List all Websets in your account. Supports cursor-based pagination.

Get Export Status

Read historical Webset export metadata. This compatibility route is unverified in current public documentation; no file availability or renewal is promised. A returned URL is legacy metadata.

Create Webset

Create a new Webset — a structured collection of web entities discovered by Exa's search agents. Define a search query and criteria; Exa finds matching web entities and verifies them. Optionally include enrichments to extract additional structured data from found items.

Export Webset

Request the historical Webset export route for CSV, JSON or XLSX. This compatibility route is not corroborated by the current public API or SDK; confirm availability with Exa before use. The export runs asynchronously — use the returned export ID to check completion status.

Create Research

Start an asynchronous in-depth web research task. Exa explores the web, gathers sources, and synthesizes findings into a structured report with citations. Creates a retained, billable task. A failed receipt does not prove the task was not created; inspect before retrying. Returns a research ID for polling the status. Use the **Get Research Status** tool to check completion and retrieve results. Optionally provide an output schema for structured JSON results.

Update Webset

Update a Webset's title or metadata. externalId is retained as a compatibility field but the current update endpoint does not support changing it.

Create Enrichment

Add an enrichment to a Webset. Enrichments are agents that search the web to enhance Webset items with additional structured data. Define what data to extract and its expected format (text, number, date, etc.). The enrichment runs on all existing and future items.

List Webset Items

List items in a Webset. Each item represents a web entity found and verified by Exa's search agents. Items include source URLs, properties, and enrichment results. Supports cursor-based pagination and native sourceId filtering.

Cancel Webset

Cancel all running operations on a Webset, including active searches and enrichments.

Delete Webset

Permanently delete a Webset and all its items, searches, enrichments, and monitors.

Delete Monitor

Delete a monitor from a Webset, stopping its scheduled operations.

Create Monitor

Create a monitor on a Webset to automatically keep it updated on a schedule. **Search** behavior runs recurring, billable searches with automatic deduplication. The retained refresh input is unsupported by the current native endpoint and is refused before creation. Schedules use cron expressions.

Get Contents

Retrieve content from a list of URLs without performing a search. Extracts full text as markdown, key highlights, and AI-generated summaries from web pages. Useful when you already have specific URLs and need to extract their content.

Get Research Status

Check the status of an asynchronous research task and retrieve its results when completed. Returns the current status, and when completed, the full research output with content and cost information.

Delete Webset Item

Remove a specific item from a Webset.

Get Webset

Retrieve details of a specific Webset by its ID, including status, metadata, and associated searches, enrichments, and monitors.

Answer Question

Get a direct AI-generated answer to a question with citations from the web. Exa searches the web and synthesizes an answer backed by source references. Ideal for factual questions, research queries, and getting quick answers grounded in web sources.

Update Enrichment

Update an enrichment's description or format on a Webset.

Web Search

Search the web using Exa's AI-native search engine. Supports neural search, auto mode, fast search, and deep search with query expansion. Use **categories** to focus on specific content types like companies, people, news, tweets, or research papers. Filter results by domains, dates, and text content. Optionally retrieve full text, highlights, and summaries inline.

Get Team Info

Read the API key’s native team context and Websets concurrency limits. This identifies the team, not a person; product access depends on the key and plan.
