Request Syntax

response = client.retrieve(
    knowledgeBaseId='string',
    nextToken='string',
    retrievalConfiguration={
        'vectorSearchConfiguration': {
            'numberOfResults': 123,
            'overrideSearchType': 'HYBRID'|'SEMANTIC'
        }
    },
    retrievalQuery={
        'text': 'string'
    }
)
Parameters:
  • knowledgeBaseId (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The unique identifier of the knowledge base to query.

  • nextToken (string) – If there are more results than can fit in the response, the response returns a nextToken. Use this token in the nextToken field of another request to retrieve the next batch of results.

  • retrievalConfiguration (dict) –

    Contains configurations for the knowledge base query and retrieval process. For more information, see Query configurations.

    • vectorSearchConfiguration (dict) – [REQUIRED]

      Contains details about how the results from the vector search should be returned. For more information, see Query configurations.

      • numberOfResults (integer) –

        The number of source chunks to retrieve.

      • overrideSearchType (string) –

        By default, Amazon Bedrock decides a search strategy for you. If you’re using an Amazon OpenSearch Serverless vector store that contains a filterable text field, you can specify whether to query the knowledge base with a HYBRID search using both vector embeddings and raw text, or SEMANTIC search using only vector embeddings. For other vector store configurations, only SEMANTIC search is available. For more information, see Test a knowledge base.

  • retrievalQuery (dict) –

    [REQUIRED]

    Contains the query to send the knowledge base.

    • text (string) – [REQUIRED]

      The text of the query made to the knowledge base.

Return type:

dict

Returns:

Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • nextToken (string) –

    • retrievalResults (list) –

      A list of results from querying the knowledge base.

      • (dict) –

        Details about a result from querying the knowledge base.

        • location (dict) –

          Contains information about the location of the data source.

          • s3Location (dict) –

            Contains the S3 location of the data source.

            • uri (string) –
