answer(servingConfig, body=None, x__xgafv=None)
Answer query method.
Close httplib2 connections.
patch(name, body=None, updateMask=None, x__xgafv=None)
Updates a ServingConfig. Returns a NOT_FOUND error if the ServingConfig does not exist.
recommend(servingConfig, body=None, x__xgafv=None)
Makes a recommendation, which requires a contextual user event.
search(servingConfig, body=None, x__xgafv=None)
Performs a search.
searchLite(servingConfig, body=None, x__xgafv=None)
Performs a search. Similar to the SearchService.Search method, but a lite version that allows API key for authentication, where OAuth and IAM checks are not required. Only public website search is supported by this method. If data stores and engines not associated with public website search are specified, a `FAILED_PRECONDITION` error is returned. This method can be used for easy onboarding without having to implement an authentication backend. However, it is strongly recommended to use SearchService.Search instead with required OAuth and IAM checks to provide better data security.

streamAnswer(servingConfig, body=None, x__xgafv=None)
Answer query method (streaming). It takes one AnswerQueryRequest and returns multiple AnswerQueryResponse messages in a stream.
answer(servingConfig, body=None, x__xgafv=None)
Answer query method.
Args:
servingConfig: string, Required. The resource name of the Search serving config, such as `projects/*/locations/global/collections/default_collection/engines/*/servingConfigs/default_serving_config`, or `projects/*/locations/global/collections/default_collection/dataStores/*/servingConfigs/default_serving_config`. This field is used to identify the serving configuration name, set of models used to make the search. (required)
body: object, The request body.
The object takes the form of:

"answerLanguageCode": "A String", # Language code for Answer. Use language tags defined by [BCP47](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/bcp/bcp47.txt). Note: This is an experimental feature.
"ignoreAdversarialQuery": True or False, # Specifies whether to filter out adversarial queries. The default value is `false`. Google employs search-query classification to detect adversarial queries. No answer is returned if the search query is classified as an adversarial query. For example, a user might ask a question regarding negative comments about the company or submit a query designed to generate unsafe, policy-violating output. If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating answers for adversarial queries and return fallback messages instead.
"ignoreJailBreakingQuery": True or False, # Optional. Specifies whether to filter out jail-breaking queries. The default value is `false`. Google employs search-query classification to detect jail-breaking queries. No summary is returned if the search query is classified as a jail-breaking query. A user might add instructions to the query to change the tone, style, language, content of the answer, or ask the model to act as a different entity, e.g. "Reply in the tone of a competing company's CEO". If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating summaries for jail-breaking queries and return fallback messages instead.
"ignoreLowRelevantContent": True or False, # Specifies whether to filter out queries that have low relevance. If this field is set to `false`, all search results are used regardless of relevance to generate answers. If set to `true` or unset, the behavior will be determined automatically by the service.
"ignoreNonAnswerSeekingQuery": True or False, # Specifies whether to filter out queries that are not answer-seeking. The default value is `false`. Google employs search-query classification to detect answer-seeking queries. No answer is returned if the search query is classified as a non-answer seeking query. If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating answers for non-answer seeking queries and return fallback messages instead.
"includeCitations": True or False, # Specifies whether to include citation metadata in the answer. The default value is `false`.
"modelSpec": { # Answer Generation Model specification. # Answer generation model specification.

If enabled, the response will be returned with answer/session resource name without final answer. The API users need to do the polling to get the latest status of answer/session by calling ConversationalSearchService.GetAnswer or ConversationalSearchService.GetSession method.
"groundingSpec": { # Grounding specification. # Optional. Grounding specification.
"filteringLevel": "A String", # Optional. Specifies whether to enable the filtering based on grounding score and at what level.

An extractive answer is a verbatim answer extracted from the original document, which provides a precise and contextually relevant answer to the search query. If the number of matching answers is less than the `max_extractive_answer_count`, return all of the answers. Otherwise, return the `max_extractive_answer_count`. At most five answers are returned for each SearchResult.
"maxExtractiveSegmentCount": 42, # The max number of extractive segments returned in each search result. Only applied if the DataStore is set to DataStore.ContentConfig.CONTENT_REQUIRED or DataStore.solution_types is SOLUTION_TYPE_CHAT.

If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating summaries for adversarial queries and return fallback messages instead.
"ignoreJailBreakingQuery": True or False, # Optional. Specifies whether to filter out jail-breaking queries. The default value is `false`. Google employs search-query classification to detect jail-breaking queries. No summary is returned if the search query is classified as a jail-breaking query. A user might add instructions to the query to change the tone, style, language, content of the answer, or ask the model to act as a different entity, e.g. "Reply in the tone of a competing company's CEO". If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating summaries for jail-breaking queries and return fallback messages instead.
"ignoreLowRelevantContent": True or False, # Specifies whether to filter out queries that have low relevance. The default value is `false`. If this field is set to `false`, all search results are used regardless of relevance to generate answers. If set to `true`, only queries with high relevance search results will generate answers.
"ignoreNonSummarySeekingQuery": True or False, # Specifies whether to filter out queries that are not summary-seeking. The default value is `false`. Google employs search-query classification to detect summary-seeking queries. No summary is returned if the search query is classified as a non-summary seeking query. For example, `why is the sky blue` and `Who is the best soccer player in the world?` are summary-seeking queries, but `SFO airport` and `world cup 2026` are not. They are most likely navigational queries. If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating summaries for non-summary seeking queries and return fallback messages instead.
"includeCitations": True or False, # Specifies whether to include citations in the summary. The default value is `false`. When this field is set to `true`, summaries include in-line citation numbers. Example summary including citations: BigQuery is Google Cloud's fully managed and completely serverless enterprise data warehouse [1]. BigQuery supports all data types, works across clouds, and has built-in machine learning and business intelligence, all within a unified platform [2, 3].

recommend(servingConfig, body=None, x__xgafv=None)
Makes a recommendation, which requires a contextual user event.
Args:
servingConfig: string, Required. Full resource name of a ServingConfig: `projects/*/locations/global/collections/*/engines/*/servingConfigs/*`, or `projects/*/locations/global/collections/*/dataStores/*/servingConfigs/*` One default serving config is created along with your recommendation engine creation. The engine ID is used as the ID of the default serving config. For example, for Engine `projects/*/locations/global/collections/*/engines/my-engine`, you can use `projects/*/locations/global/collections/*/engines/my-engine/servingConfigs/my-engine` for your RecommendationService.Recommend requests. (required)
body: object, The request body.
The object takes the form of:
{ # Request message for Recommend method.
"filter": "A String", # Filter for restricting recommendation results with a length limit of 5,000 characters. Currently, only filter expressions on the `filter_tags` attribute is supported. Examples: * `(filter_tags: ANY("Red", "Blue") OR filter_tags: ANY("Hot", "Cold"))` * `(filter_tags: ANY("Red", "Blue")) AND NOT (filter_tags: ANY("Green"))` If `attributeFilteringSyntax` is set to true under the `params` field, then attribute-based expressions are expected instead of the above described tag-based syntax. Examples: * (language: ANY("en", "es")) AND NOT (categories: ANY("Movie")) * (available: true) AND (language: ANY("en", "es")) OR (categories: ANY("Movie")) If your filter blocks all results, the API returns generic (unfiltered) popular Documents. If you only want results strictly matching the filters, set `strictFiltering` to `true` in RecommendRequest.params to receive empty results instead. Note that the API never returns Documents with `storageStatus` as `EXPIRED` or `DELETED` regardless of filter choices.
"pageSize": 42, # Maximum number of results to return. Set this property to the number of recommendation results needed. If zero, the service chooses a reasonable default. The maximum allowed value is 100. Values above 100 are set to 100.
"params": { # Additional domain specific parameters for the recommendations. Allowed values: * `returnDocument`: Boolean. If set to `true`, the associated Document object is returned in RecommendResponse.RecommendationResult.document. * `returnScore`: Boolean. If set to true, the recommendation score corresponding to each returned Document is set in RecommendResponse.RecommendationResult.metadata. The given score indicates the probability of a Document conversion given the user's context and history. * `strictFiltering`: Boolean. True by default. If set to `false`, the service returns generic (unfiltered) popular Documents instead of empty if your filter blocks all recommendation results. * `diversityLevel`: String. Default empty. If set to be non-empty, then it needs to be one of: * `no-diversity` * `low-diversity` * `medium-diversity` * `high-diversity` * `auto-diversity` This gives request-level control and adjusts recommendation results based on Document category. * `attributeFilteringSyntax`: Boolean. False by default. If set to true, the `filter` field is interpreted according to the new, attribute-based syntax.

"userEvent": { # UserEvent captures all metadata information Discovery Engine API needs to know about how end users interact with your website. # Required. Context about the user, what they are looking at and what action they took to trigger the Recommend request. Note that this user event detail won't be ingested to userEvent logs. Thus, a separate userEvent write request is required for event logging. Don't set UserEvent.user_pseudo_id or UserEvent.user_info.user_id to the same fixed ID for different users. If you are trying to receive non-personalized recommendations (not recommended; this can negatively impact model performance), instead set UserEvent.user_pseudo_id to a random unique ID and leave UserEvent.user_info.user_id unset.
"attributes": { # Extra user event features to include in the recommendation model. These attributes must NOT contain data that needs to be parsed or processed further, e.g. JSON or other encodings. If you provide custom attributes for ingested user events, also include them in the user events that you associate with prediction requests. Custom attribute formatting must be consistent between imported events and events provided with prediction requests. This lets the Discovery Engine API use those custom attributes when training models and serving predictions, which helps improve recommendation quality. This field needs to pass all below criteria, otherwise an `INVALID_ARGUMENT` error is returned: * The key must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 5,000 characters. * For text attributes, at most 400 values are allowed. Empty values are not allowed. Each value must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 256 characters. * For number attributes, at most 400 values are allowed. For product recommendations, an example of extra user information is `traffic_channel`, which is how a user arrives at the site. Users can arrive at the site by coming to the site directly, coming through Google search, or in other ways.

"attributionToken": "A String", # Token to attribute an API response to user action(s) to trigger the event. Highly recommended for user events that are the result of RecommendationService.Recommend. This field enables accurate attribution of recommendation model performance. The value must be one of: * RecommendResponse.attribution_token for events that are the result of RecommendationService.Recommend. * SearchResponse.attribution_token for events that are the result of SearchService.Search. This token enables us to accurately attribute page view or conversion completion back to the event and the particular predict response containing this clicked/purchased product. If user clicks on product K in the recommendation results, pass RecommendResponse.attribution_token as a URL parameter to product K's page. When recording events on product K's page, log the RecommendResponse.attribution_token to this field.

This mixes the custom conversion event with predefined events like `search`, `view-item` etc.
"dataStore": "A String", # The DataStore resource full name, of the form `projects/{project}/locations/{location}/collections/{collection_id}/dataStores/{data_store_id}`. Optional. Only required for user events whose data store can't by determined by UserEvent.engine or UserEvent.documents. If data store is set in the parent of write/import/collect user event requests, this field can be omitted.
"directUserRequest": True or False, # Should set to true if the request is made directly from the end user, in which case the UserEvent.user_info.user_agent can be populated from the HTTP request. This flag should be set only if the API request is made directly from the end user such as a mobile app (and not if a gateway or a server is processing and pushing the user events). This should not be set when using the JavaScript tag in UserEventService.CollectUserEvent.
"documents": [ # List of Documents associated with this user event. This field is optional except for the following event types: * `view-item` * `add-to-cart` * `purchase` * `media-play` * `media-complete` In a `search` event, this field represents the documents returned to the end user on the current page (the end user may have not finished browsing the whole page yet). When a new page is returned to the end user, after pagination/filtering/ordering even for the same query, a new `search` event with different UserEvent.documents is desired.
{ # Detailed document information associated with a user event.
"conversionValue": 3.14, # Optional. The conversion value associated with this Document. Must be set if UserEvent.event_type is "conversion". For example, a value of 1000 signifies that 1000 seconds were spent viewing a Document for the `watch` conversion type.

One example is for `search` events, the associated SearchRequest may contain a filter expression in SearchRequest.filter conforming to https://google.aip.dev/160#filtering. Similarly, for `view-item-list` events that are generated from a RecommendRequest, this field may be populated directly from RecommendRequest.filter conforming to https://google.aip.dev/160#filtering. The value must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 1,000 characters. Otherwise, an `INVALID_ARGUMENT` error is returned.

"pageCategory": "A String", # The most specific category associated with a category page. To represent full path of category, use '>' sign to separate different hierarchies. If '>' is part of the category name, replace it with other character(s). Category pages include special pages such as sales or promotions. For instance, a special sale page may have the category hierarchy: `"pageCategory" : "Sales > 2017 Black Friday Deals"`. Required for `view-category-page` events. Other event types should not set this field. Otherwise, an `INVALID_ARGUMENT` error is returned.
"pageviewId": "A String", # A unique ID of a web page view. This should be kept the same for all user events triggered from the same pageview. For example, an item detail page view could trigger multiple events as the user is browsing the page.

Google employs search-query classification to detect summary-seeking queries. No summary is returned if the search query is classified as a non-summary seeking query. For example, `why is the sky blue` and `Who is the best soccer player in the world?` are summary-seeking queries, but `SFO airport` and `world cup 2026` are not. They are most likely navigational queries. If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating summaries for non-summary seeking queries and return fallback messages instead.

If set to false, the position of this facet in the response is the same as in the request, and it is ranked before the facets with dynamic position enable and all dynamic facets. For example, you may always want to have rating facet returned in the response, but it's not necessarily to always display the rating facet at the top. In that case, you can set enable_dynamic_position to true so that the position of rating facet in response is determined automatically. Another example, assuming you have the following facets in the request: * "rating", enable_dynamic_position = true * "price", enable_dynamic_position = false * "brands", enable_dynamic_position = false And also you have a dynamic facets enabled, which generates a facet `gender`. Then the final order of the facets in the response can be ("price", "brands", "rating", "gender") or ("price", "brands", "gender", "rating") depends on how API orders "gender" and "rating" facets.

Listing a facet key in this field allows its values to appear as facet results, even when they are filtered out of search results. Using this field does not affect what search results are returned. For example, suppose there are 100 documents with the color facet "Red" and 200 documents with the color facet "Blue". A query containing the filter "color:ANY("Red")" and having "color" as FacetKey.key would by default return only "Red" documents in the search results, and also return "Red" with count 100 as the only color facet. Although there are also blue documents available, "Blue" would not be shown as an available facet value. If "color" is listed in "excludedFilterKeys", then the query returns the facet values "Red" with count 100 and "Blue" with count 200, because the "color" key is now excluded from the filter. Because this field doesn't affect search results, the search results are still correctly filtered to return only "Red" documents. A maximum of 100 values are allowed. Otherwise, an `INVALID_ARGUMENT` error is returned.

searchLite(servingConfig, body=None, x__xgafv=None)
Performs a search. Similar to the SearchService.Search method, but a lite version that allows API key for authentication, where OAuth and IAM checks are not required. Only public website search is supported by this method. If data stores and engines not associated with public website search are specified, a `FAILED_PRECONDITION` error is returned. This method can be used for easy onboarding without having to implement an authentication backend. However, it is strongly recommended to use SearchService.Search instead with required OAuth and IAM checks to provide better data security.
Args:
servingConfig: string, Required. The resource name of the Search serving config, such as `projects/*/locations/global/collections/default_collection/engines/*/servingConfigs/default_serving_config`, or `projects/*/locations/global/collections/default_collection/dataStores/default_data_store/servingConfigs/default_serving_config`.

If this field is set to `true`, we skip generating summaries for jail-breaking queries and return fallback messages instead.
"ignoreLowRelevantContent": True or False, # Specifies whether to filter out queries that have low relevance. The default value is `false`.

For example, you may always want to have rating facet returned in the response, but it's not necessarily to always display the rating facet at the top. In that case, you can set enable_dynamic_position to true so that the position of rating facet in response is determined automatically. Another example, assuming you have the following facets in the request: * "rating", enable_dynamic_position = true * "price", enable_dynamic_position = false * "brands", enable_dynamic_position = false And also you have a dynamic facets enabled, which generates a facet `gender`. Then the final order of the facets in the response can be ("price", "brands", "rating", "gender") or ("price", "brands", "gender", "rating") depends on how API orders "gender" and "rating" facets.

For example, suppose there are 100 documents with the color facet "Red" and 200 documents with the color facet "Blue". A query containing the filter "color:ANY("Red")" and having "color" as FacetKey.key would by default return only "Red" documents in the search results, and also return "Red" with count 100 as the only color facet. Although there are also blue documents available, "Blue" would not be shown as an available facet value. If "color" is listed in "excludedFilterKeys", then the query returns the facet values "Red" with count 100 and "Blue" with count 200, because the "color" key is now excluded from the filter. Because this field doesn't affect search results, the search results are still correctly filtered to return only "Red" documents. A maximum of 100 values are allowed. Otherwise, an `INVALID_ARGUMENT` error is returned.

Example #1 (multi-turn /search API calls): 1. Call /search API with the auto-session mode (see below). 2. Call /search API with the session ID generated in the first call. Here, the previous search query gets considered in query standing. I.e., if the first query is "How did Alphabet do in 2022?" and the current query is "How about 2023?", the current query will be interpreted as "How did Alphabet do in 2023?". Example #2 (coordination between /search API calls and /answer API calls): 1. Call /search API with the auto-session mode (see below). 2. Call /answer API with the session ID generated in the first call. Here, the answer generation happens in the context of the search results from the first search call.
