Ares API Documentation

Overview

The Ares API is a powerful tool that takes a query as input and generates a detailed response along with the URLs from which the answer was derived. It is particularly useful for obtaining information related to specific queries.

Get your api key here

Sample Code for Python

import requests
import json

url = "https://api-ares.traversaal.ai/live/predict"

payload = { "query": ["taco spots in San Francisco"] }
headers = {
"x-api-key": "_your api key_",
"content-type": "application/json"
}

response = requests.post(url, json=payload, headers=headers)

Sample Endpoints using Curl:

curl --request POST \
--url https://api-ares.traversaal.ai/live/predict \
--header 'content-type: application/json' \
--header 'x-api-key: _your_api key_' \
--data '{
"query":
["Good Indian food in Seattle?"]
}'

Sample Endpoint using JavaScript (Node.js):

const fetch = require('node-fetch');

const apiUrl = 'https://api-ares.traversaal.ai/live/predict';
const apiKey = "_your api key_",;

const requestData = {
query: ['taco spots in San Francisco']
};

fetch(apiUrl, {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'x-api-key': apiKey
},
body: JSON.stringify(requestData)
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => console.log(data))
.catch(error => console.error('Error:', error));

Note: Make sure to install the node-fetch library if you're running this in a Node.js environment.

These examples demonstrate how to make a POST request to the Ares API's predict endpoint using both curl and JavaScript. You can modify the requestData object to include different queries as needed.

Output Format

The generated output is provided in JSON format and contains two main components:

1. Response Text
