Detect Web entities with a local image
You can use the Vision API to perform feature detection on a local image file.
For REST requests, send the contents of the image file as a base64 encoded string in the body of your request.
For gcloud and client library requests, specify the path to a local image in your
request.
REST
Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:
- BASE64_ENCODED_IMAGE: The base64
representation (ASCII string) of your binary image data. This string should look similar to the
following string:
/9j/4QAYRXhpZgAA...9tAVx/zDQDlGxn//2Q==
- RESULTS_INT: (Optional) An integer value of results to
return. If you omit the
"maxResults"field and its value, the API returns the default value of 10 results. This field does not apply to the following feature types:TEXT_DETECTION,DOCUMENT_TEXT_DETECTION, orCROP_HINTS. - PROJECT_ID: Your Google Cloud project ID.
HTTP method and URL:
POST https://vision.googleapis.com/v1/images:annotate
Request JSON body:
{
"requests": [
{
"image": {
"content": "BASE64_ENCODED_IMAGE"
},
"features": [
{
"maxResults": RESULTS_INT,
"type": "WEB_DETECTION"
},
]
}
]
}
To send your request, choose one of these options:
curl
Save the request body in a file named request.json,
and execute the following command:
curl -X POST \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
-H "x-goog-user-project: PROJECT_ID" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8" \
-d @request.json \
"https://vision.googleapis.com/v1/images:annotate"
PowerShell
Save the request body in a file named request.json,
and execute the following command:
$cred = gcloud auth print-access-token
$headers = @{ "Authorization" = "Bearer $cred"; "x-goog-user-project" = "PROJECT_ID" }
Invoke-WebRequest `
-Method POST `
-Headers $headers `
-ContentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8" `
-InFile request.json `
-Uri "https://vision.googleapis.com/v1/images:annotate" | Select-Object -Expand Content
If the request is successful, the server returns a 200 OK HTTP status code and
the response in JSON format.

Detect Web entities with a remote image
You can use the Vision API to perform feature detection on a remote image file that is located in Cloud Storage or on the Web. To send a remote file request, specify the file's Web URL or Cloud Storage URI in the request body.
REST
Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:
- CLOUD_STORAGE_IMAGE_URI: the path to a valid
image file in a Cloud Storage bucket. You must at least have read privileges to the file.
Example:
gs://cloud-samples-data/vision/web/carnaval.jpeg
- RESULTS_INT: (Optional) An integer value of results to
return. If you omit the
"maxResults"field and its value, the API returns the default value of 10 results. This field does not apply to the following feature types:TEXT_DETECTION,DOCUMENT_TEXT_DETECTION, orCROP_HINTS. - PROJECT_ID: Your Google Cloud project ID.
HTTP method and URL:
POST https://vision.googleapis.com/v1/images:annotate
Request JSON body:

"requests": [
{
"image": {
"source": {
"gcsImageUri": "CLOUD_STORAGE_IMAGE_URI"
