Overview

Visual Search has three searchable libraries. Each library has its own search endpoints — choose based on what content you want to find.

Search runs across your entire account by default. To narrow a search to one folder, pass folder_id (see Folders).

Three Libraries

Library	Content	Populated by
Private Video Library	Videos you uploaded	Upload Video, Upload from Social Media
Private Image Library	Images you uploaded	Upload Image
Public Video Library	Public TikTok / YouTube / Instagram	Pre-indexed by Memories.ai

The Private Video Library and Private Image Library are separate — they use different search endpoints and return different result formats.

Library	Input	Endpoint
Private Video	Text (semantic)	`POST /search` with `BY_CLIP` or `BY_AUDIO`
Private Video	Image (library-wide)	`POST /search_similar_images`
Private Video	Image (within one video)	`POST /search_clips_by_image`
Private Video	Keyword (exact transcript)	`GET /search_audio_transcripts`
Private Image	Text (semantic)	`POST /search` with `BY_IMAGE`
Public Video	Text (semantic)	`POST /search_public`
Public Video	Image	`POST /search_public_similar_images`
Public Video	Keyword (exact transcript)	`GET /search_public_audio_transcripts`
