Advanced tools
Analyze API (Beta): Use the Analyze API to analyze any external asset and return details based on the type of analysis requested.
Currently supports the following analysis options:
Notes:
The API supports both Basic Authentication using your Cloudinary API Key and API Secret (which can be found on the Dashboard page of your Cloudinary Console) or OAuth2 (Contact support for more information regarding OAuth).
The SDK can be installed with either npm, pnpm, bun or yarn package managers.
npm add @cloudinary/analysis
pnpm add @cloudinary/analysis
bun add @cloudinary/analysis
yarn add @cloudinary/analysis zod
# Note that Yarn does not install peer dependencies automatically. You will need
# to install zod as shown above.
For supported JavaScript runtimes, please consult RUNTIMES.md.
import { CloudinaryAnalysis } from "@cloudinary/analysis";
const cloudinaryAnalysis = new CloudinaryAnalysis({
security: {
cloudinaryAuth: {
apiKey: "CLOUDINARY_API_KEY",
apiSecret: "CLOUDINARY_API_SECRET",
},
},
});
async function run() {
const result = await cloudinaryAnalysis.analyze.aiVisionGeneral({
source: {
uri: "https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/sample.jpg",
},
prompts: [
"Describe this image in detail",
"Does this image contain an insect?",
],
});
// Handle the result
console.log(result);
}
run();
The default server https://api.cloudinary.com/v2/analysis/{cloud_name} contains variables and is set to https://api.cloudinary.com/v2/analysis/CLOUD_NAME by default. To override default values, the following parameters are available when initializing the SDK client instance:
| Variable | Parameter | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
cloud_name | cloudName: string | "CLOUD_NAME" | Your Cloud Name. |
import { CloudinaryAnalysis } from "@cloudinary/analysis";
const cloudinaryAnalysis = new CloudinaryAnalysis({
cloudName: "<value>",
security: {
cloudinaryAuth: {
apiKey: "CLOUDINARY_API_KEY",
apiSecret: "CLOUDINARY_API_SECRET",
},
},
});
async function run() {
const result = await cloudinaryAnalysis.analyze.aiVisionGeneral({
source: {
uri: "https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/sample.jpg",
},
prompts: [
"Describe this image in detail",
"Does this image contain an insect?",
],
});
// Handle the result
console.log(result);
}
run();
The default server can be overridden globally by passing a URL to the serverURL: string optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:
import { CloudinaryAnalysis } from "@cloudinary/analysis";
const cloudinaryAnalysis = new CloudinaryAnalysis({
serverURL: "https://api.cloudinary.com/v2/analysis/CLOUD_NAME",
security: {
cloudinaryAuth: {
apiKey: "CLOUDINARY_API_KEY",
apiSecret: "CLOUDINARY_API_SECRET",
},
},
});
async function run() {
const result = await cloudinaryAnalysis.analyze.aiVisionGeneral({
source: {
uri: "https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/sample.jpg",
},
prompts: [
"Describe this image in detail",
"Does this image contain an insect?",
],
});
// Handle the result
console.log(result);
}
run();
This SDK supports the following security schemes globally:
| Name | Type | Scheme | Environment Variable |
|---|---|---|---|
cloudinaryAuth | http | Custom HTTP | CLOUDINARY_CLOUDINARY_AUTH |
oAuth2 | oauth2 | OAuth2 token | CLOUDINARY_O_AUTH2 |
You can set the security parameters through the security optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected scheme will be used by default to authenticate with the API for all operations that support it. For example:
import { CloudinaryAnalysis } from "@cloudinary/analysis";
const cloudinaryAnalysis = new CloudinaryAnalysis({
security: {
cloudinaryAuth: {
apiKey: "CLOUDINARY_API_KEY",
apiSecret: "CLOUDINARY_API_SECRET",
},
},
});
async function run() {
const result = await cloudinaryAnalysis.analyze.aiVisionGeneral({
source: {
uri: "https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/sample.jpg",
},
prompts: [
"Describe this image in detail",
"Does this image contain an insect?",
],
});
// Handle the result
console.log(result);
}
run();
All the methods listed above are available as standalone functions. These functions are ideal for use in applications running in the browser, serverless runtimes or other environments where application bundle size is a primary concern. When using a bundler to build your application, all unused functionality will be either excluded from the final bundle or tree-shaken away.

If you use the SDK without any configuration, it will fall back to the default retry strategy provided by the API. However, the default retry strategy can be overridden on a per-operation basis, or across the entire SDK.
To change the default retry strategy for a single API call, simply provide a retryConfig object to the call:
import { CloudinaryAnalysis } from "@cloudinary/analysis";
const cloudinaryAnalysis = new CloudinaryAnalysis({
security: {
cloudinaryAuth: {
apiKey: "CLOUDINARY_API_KEY",
apiSecret: "CLOUDINARY_API_SECRET",
},
},
});
async function run() {
const result = await cloudinaryAnalysis.analyze.aiVisionGeneral({
source: {
uri: "https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/sample.jpg",
},
prompts: [
"Describe this image in detail",
"Does this image contain an insect?",
],
}, {
retries: {
strategy: "backoff",
backoff: {
initialInterval: 1,
maxInterval: 50,
exponent: 1.1,
maxElapsedTime: 100,
},
retryConnectionErrors: false,
},
});
// Handle the result
console.log(result);
}
run();
If you'd like to override the default retry strategy for all operations that support retries, you can provide a retryConfig at SDK initialization:
import { CloudinaryAnalysis } from "@cloudinary/analysis";
const cloudinaryAnalysis = new CloudinaryAnalysis({
retryConfig: {
strategy: "backoff",
backoff: {
initialInterval: 1,
maxInterval: 50,
exponent: 1.1,
maxElapsedTime: 100,
},
retryConnectionErrors: false,
},
security: {
cloudinaryAuth: {
apiKey: "CLOUDINARY_API_KEY",
apiSecret: "CLOUDINARY_API_SECRET",
},
},
});
async function run() {
const result = await cloudinaryAnalysis.analyze.aiVisionGeneral({
source: {
uri: "https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/sample.jpg",
},
prompts: [
"Describe this image in detail",
"Does this image contain an insect?",
],
});
// Handle the result
console.log(result);
}
run();
Some methods specify known errors which can be thrown. All the known errors are enumerated in the models/errors/errors.ts module. The known errors for a method are documented under the Errors tables in SDK docs. For example, the aiVisionGeneral method may throw the following errors:
| Error Type | Status Code | Content Type |
|---|---|---|
| errors.ErrorResponse | 400, 401, 403, 404 | application/json |
| errors.RateLimitedResponse | 429 | application/json |
| errors.ErrorResponse | 500 | application/json |
| errors.APIError | 4XX, 5XX | */* |
If the method throws an error and it is not captured by the known errors, it will default to throwing a APIError.
import { CloudinaryAnalysis } from "@cloudinary/analysis";
import {
ErrorResponse,
RateLimitedResponse,
SDKValidationError,
} from "@cloudinary/analysis/models/errors";
const cloudinaryAnalysis = new CloudinaryAnalysis({
security: {
cloudinaryAuth: {
apiKey: "CLOUDINARY_API_KEY",
apiSecret: "CLOUDINARY_API_SECRET",
},
},
});
async function run() {
let result;
try {
result = await cloudinaryAnalysis.analyze.aiVisionGeneral({
source: {
uri: "https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/sample.jpg",
},
prompts: [
"Describe this image in detail",
"Does this image contain an insect?",
],
});
// Handle the result
console.log(result);
} catch (err) {
switch (true) {
// The server response does not match the expected SDK schema
case (err instanceof SDKValidationError): {
// Pretty-print will provide a human-readable multi-line error message
console.error(err.pretty());
// Raw value may also be inspected
console.error(err.rawValue);
return;
}
case (err instanceof ErrorResponse): {
// Handle err.data$: ErrorResponseData
console.error(err);
return;
}
case (err instanceof RateLimitedResponse): {
// Handle err.data$: RateLimitedResponseData
console.error(err);
return;
}
case (err instanceof ErrorResponse): {
// Handle err.data$: ErrorResponseData
console.error(err);
return;
}
default: {
// Other errors such as network errors, see HTTPClientErrors for more details
throw err;
}
}
}
}
run();
Validation errors can also occur when either method arguments or data returned from the server do not match the expected format. The SDKValidationError that is thrown as a result will capture the raw value that failed validation in an attribute called rawValue. Additionally, a pretty() method is available on this error that can be used to log a nicely formatted multi-line string since validation errors can list many issues and the plain error string may be difficult read when debugging.
In some rare cases, the SDK can fail to get a response from the server or even make the request due to unexpected circumstances such as network conditions. These types of errors are captured in the models/errors/httpclienterrors.ts module:
| HTTP Client Error | Description |
|---|---|
| RequestAbortedError | HTTP request was aborted by the client |
| RequestTimeoutError | HTTP request timed out due to an AbortSignal signal |
| ConnectionError | HTTP client was unable to make a request to a server |
| InvalidRequestError | Any input used to create a request is invalid |
| UnexpectedClientError | Unrecognised or unexpected error |
The TypeScript SDK makes API calls using an HTTPClient that wraps the native
Fetch API. This
client is a thin wrapper around fetch and provides the ability to attach hooks
around the request lifecycle that can be used to modify the request or handle
errors and response.
The HTTPClient constructor takes an optional fetcher argument that can be
used to integrate a third-party HTTP client or when writing tests to mock out
the HTTP client and feed in fixtures.
The following example shows how to use the "beforeRequest" hook to to add a
custom header and a timeout to requests and how to use the "requestError" hook
to log errors:
import { CloudinaryAnalysis } from "@cloudinary/analysis";
import { HTTPClient } from "@cloudinary/analysis/lib/http";
const httpClient = new HTTPClient({
// fetcher takes a function that has the same signature as native `fetch`.
fetcher: (request) => {
return fetch(request);
}
});
httpClient.addHook("beforeRequest", (request) => {
const nextRequest = new Request(request, {
signal: request.signal || AbortSignal.timeout(5000)
});
nextRequest.headers.set("x-custom-header", "custom value");
return nextRequest;
});
httpClient.addHook("requestError", (error, request) => {
console.group("Request Error");
console.log("Reason:", `${error}`);
console.log("Endpoint:", `${request.method} ${request.url}`);
console.groupEnd();
});
const sdk = new CloudinaryAnalysis({ httpClient });
You can setup your SDK to emit debug logs for SDK requests and responses.
You can pass a logger that matches console's interface as an SDK option.
[!WARNING] Beware that debug logging will reveal secrets, like API tokens in headers, in log messages printed to a console or files. It's recommended to use this feature only during local development and not in production.
import { CloudinaryAnalysis } from "@cloudinary/analysis";
const sdk = new CloudinaryAnalysis({ debugLogger: console });
You can also enable a default debug logger by setting an environment variable CLOUDINARY_DEBUG to true.
This SDK is in beta, and there may be breaking changes between versions without a major version update. Therefore, we recommend pinning usage to a specific package version. This way, you can install the same version each time without breaking changes unless you are intentionally looking for the latest version.
While we value open-source contributions to this SDK, this library is generated programmatically. Any manual changes added to internal files will be overwritten on the next generation. We look forward to hearing your feedback. Feel free to open a PR or an issue with a proof of concept and we'll do our best to include it in a future release.
