AddImage - Image Search - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center

Adds an image to an Image Search instance.

Usage notes

You can call this operation to add an image to an Image Search instance.

QPS limits

By default, the concurrency limit for adding an image to instances whose image capacity specifications are 0.1 million images is 1. This means that the system can process up to one request of adding an image every second.

By default, the concurrency limit for adding an image to instances of other image capacity specifications is 5. This means that the system can process up to five requests of adding an image every second.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer. OpenAPI Explorer dynamically generates the sample code of the operation for different SDKs.

Request parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Example	Description
Action	String	Yes	AddImage	The operation that you want to perform. Set the value to AddImage.
InstanceName	String	Yes	demoinstance1	The name of the Image Search instance. The name can be up to 20 characters in length. If an Image Search instance is purchased, you can log on to the Image Search console to view the instance. If no Image Search instance is purchased, you must purchase an instance. For more information, see Activate Image Search and Create an instance. Note The instance name is not the instance ID.
ProductId	String	Yes	2092061_1	The product ID. The ID can be up to 512 characters in length. Note A product may have multiple images.
PicName	String	Yes	2092061_1.jpg	The name of the image. The name can be up to 512 characters in length. Note An image is uniquely identified by the values of ProductId and PicName. If you add an image whose product ID (ProductId) and image name (PicName) are the same as those of an existing image, the newly added image overwrites the existing image.
PicContent	String	Yes	AAAANSUhEUgAAAPcAAAEVCAYAAAA8d3NuAAAAAXNSR0IArs......RK5CYII=	The image file. The file size of the image cannot exceed 4 MB. The following image formats are supported: PNG, JPG, JPEG, BMP, GIF, WebP, TIFF, and PPM. The transmission timeout period cannot exceed 5 seconds. For trademark image search, the length and width of the image must range from 200 pixels to 4,096 pixels. For fabric image search, the length and width of the image must range from 448 pixels to 4,096 pixels. For product and generic image searches, the length and width of the image must range from 100 pixels to 4,096 pixels. The image cannot contain rotation settings. Note If you use SDKs to call this operation, you do not need to specify PicContent. The SDKs encapsulate this parameter and automatically encode its value in Base64. For more information about how to use Image Search SDK for Java, see SDK for Java. If you use OpenAPI Explorer to call this operation, you can select only the 2019-03-25 version. If you call this operation of other versions, the value of PicContent cannot be encoded in Base64.
CategoryId	Integer	No	88888888	The category ID of the image. For more information, see Category reference. Note For product image search, if you specify a category for an image, the specified category prevails. If you do not specify a category for an image, the system predicts the category, and returns the prediction result in the response. For generic image search, only 88888888 may be returned for this parameter in the response regardless of whether a category is specified.
Crop	Boolean	No	true	Specifies whether to identify the subject in the image and search for images based on the subject identification result. Default value: true. Valid values: true: The system identifies the subject in the image, and searches for images based on the subject identification result. The subject identification result is included in the response. false: The system does not identify the subject in the image, and searches for images based on the entire image.
Region	String	No	280,486,232,351	The subject area of the image, in the format of `x1,x2,y1,y2`. `x1 and y1` represent the upper-left point. `x2 and y2` represent the lower-right point. Note If you specify Region, the system searches for images based on the value of Region regardless of the value of Crop. The value of Region does not have a unit. The value is generated based on the length and width of the image. If the length and width of the image are scaled, the value of Region must be proportionally adjusted.
CustomContent	String	No	zidingyi	The user-defined content. The value can be up to 4,096 characters in length. Note If you specify this parameter, the response includes this parameter and its value. You can add text such as an image description.
IntAttr	Integer	No	22	The attribute, which is an integer. The attribute can be used to filter images when you search for images. If you specify this parameter, the response includes this parameter and its value.
StrAttr	String	No	ss	The attribute, which is a string. The value can be up to 128 characters in length. The attribute can be used to filter images when you search for images. If you specify this parameter, the response includes this parameter and its value. Note The value cannot contain the following special characters: \ ¥ $ & %
IntAttr2	Integer	No	22	The attribute, which is an integer. The attribute can be used to filter images when you search for images. If you specify this parameter, the response includes this parameter and its value. Note This parameter is applicable only to instances that are created after January 3, 2023.
StrAttr2	String	No	ss	The attribute, which is a string. The value can be up to 128 characters in length. The attribute can be used to filter images when you search for images. If you specify this parameter, the response includes this parameter and its value. Note The value cannot contain the following special characters: \ ¥ $ & % This parameter is applicable only to instances that are created after January 3, 2023.

Response parameters

Parameter	Type	Example	Description
Message	String	success	The returned message. Note No value is returned if the request was successful, and an error message is returned if the request failed.
RequestId	String	E0845DE6-52AF-4B50-9F15-51ED4044E6AB	The request ID.
Code	Integer	0	The response code. A value of 0 indicates that the request was successful. Values other than 0 indicate that the request failed.
PicInfo	Object		The results of category prediction and subject identification.
Region	String	94,691,206,650	The result of subject identification. The subject area of the image is in the format of `x1,x2,y1,y2`. `x1 and y1` represent the upper-left point. `x2 and y2` represent the lower-right point. If a subject area is specified in the request, the specified subject area prevails.
CategoryId	Integer	88888888	The result of category prediction. If a category is specified in the request, the specified category prevails.
Success	Boolean	true	Indicates whether the request was successful.
