#Exa

Proxy requests to Exa via Replit-managed billing.

#Callback

Use externalApi__exa in code_execution.

#Allowed operations

• POST /search - Web search (auto, neural, fast, deep, deep-reasoning).
• POST /contents - Page contents retrieval (text, highlights, summary, subpages, livecrawl).
• POST /findSimilar - Find similar links by URL similarity (optional contents pulldown).
• POST /answer - Web-grounded answer (with optional SSE streaming).

Authorization is handled automatically by Replit. Do not pass an Authorization header.

#Skill

#Exa quickstart

Semantic web search through Exa passthrough billing. Send the required fields as an object in body (it is serialized for you — do not pre-stringify) — an empty body is rejected.

const result = await externalApi__exa({
  path: '/search',
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'},
  body: {query: 'latest advances in AI agents', numResults: 5},
})

for (const item of result.body.results) {
  console.log(item.title, item.url)
}

Authorization is managed by passthrough billing. Do not set an Authorization header manually.

Be conservative: each search is billed and adds latency. Start with one focused query and a small numResults, then refine — don't fan out many searches at once. Keep no more than ~5 searches in flight in parallel.

#Example

const result = await externalApi__exa({
  path: '/search',
  method: 'POST',
  query: {},
})

console.log(result.status)
console.log(result.body)
