Using visual search

To make the most of the visual search feature, follow these best practices:

  • Do not use visual search to count objects. For example, using the search criteria of three people will not necessarily return assets with three people.

  • Do not include distance measurements. For example, search criteria of a photo of a car, a bike, and an airplane, where the airplane is closer to the bike than the car will not return relevant results.

  • Do not describe classification tasks in the search criteria. For example, differences between types of flowers.

  • Do not describe the absence of something. For example, car without people.

Aim to provide enough specific detail to locate the images you want. Too much information, or too little, can cause inaccurate or irrelevant results. Here are some examples.
