URI Parameters
Name | In | Required | Type | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
api-version | query | True | string | The version of the API in the format "YYYY-MM-DD" or "YYYY-MM-DD-preview". |
Request Header
Name | Required | Type | Description |
---|---|---|---|
extra-parameters | string | The behavior of the API when extra parameters are indicated in the payload. Using pass-through makes the API to pass the parameter to the underlying model. Use this value when you want to pass parameters that you know the underlying model can support. Using ignore makes the API to drop any unsupported parameter. Use this value when you need to use the same payload across different models, but one of the extra parameters may make a model to error out if not supported. Using error makes the API to reject any extra parameter in the payload. Only parameters specified in this API can be indicated, or a 400 error is returned. |
|
azureml-model-deployment | string | Name of the deployment you want to route the request to. Supported for endpoints that support multiple deployments. |
Request Body
Name | Required | Type | Description |
---|---|---|---|
model | string | The model name. This parameter is ignored if the endpoint serves only one model. | |
input | True | EmbeddingInput[] | Input image to embed. To embed multiple inputs in a single request, pass an array. The input must not exceed the max input tokens for the model. |
dimensions | integer | The number of dimensions the resulting output embeddings should have. Passing null causes the model to use its default value. Returns a 422 error if the model doesn't support the value or parameter. | |
encoding_format | EmbeddingEncodingFormat | The format to return the embeddings in. Either base64, float, int8, uint8, binary, or ubinary. Returns a 422 error if the model doesn't support the value or parameter. |
