Web Search

Web Search is a basic online search tool that helps your large model obtain real-time public online information (such as news, products, weather, etc.).

Core Capabilities

Flexible search modes: Supports forced search and intent recognition. With intent recognition enabled, the model will autonomously decide whether to perform an online search without manual triggering.
Early search source return: In the streaming response, the first packet will return all search sources.
Hybrid multi-tool invocation: Can work with custom functions and tools; the model will automatically determine invocation priority and necessity.
Flexible response modes: Supports both streaming and non-streaming responses, and both methods will return search and summary content.

Quick Start

The Web Search Plugin must be activated prior to use.

Enable the Service

Go to Console → Plugin Management, and activate the Web Search Plugin.
Web Search Plugin fee, refer to the Pricing. Note: Search invocation is determined by the model. A single search round (if required by the model) may initiate multiple keywords concurrently, resulting in multiple invocations of the Internet Content Plugin. You may use the max_keyword parameter to limit the maximum number of keywords per search round, thereby further controlling invocation frequency and costs.

Note：For preparations such as obtaining an API Key, please refer to First API Call.

Supported models

Currently, the mimo-v2.6-flash, mimo-v2.6-pro, mimo-v2.6-pro-ultraspeed models are supported.

Price

The billing for the Web Search Plugin consists of the following two parts:

Usage of Web Search: The number of times internet resources appear in one response of the Internet Service Plugin.
Cost per 1,000 calls from the Web Search tool: China ¥16 / 1K requests、Overseas $5 / 1K requests.

When invoking Web Search via API, one search round will initiate concurrent keyword searches according to the max_keyword value, resulting in multiple uses of this plugin.

Model token fee: The webpage content from internet search will be appended to the prompt, increasing the model’s input tokens. Billing is based on the model’s standard price. For price details, please refer to Pricing and Rate Limits.

FAQ

Why doesn’t the model perform a web search after enabling online search?

There may be three reasons:

Cache: There is a 5-minute cache period after enabling / disabling online search. The online search switch will not take effect immediately within 5 minutes.
Model determines no need for search: The model judges that the current query does not involve real-time information and can be answered directly with its own knowledge. To force a search, set force_search: true.
Model not supported: Currently, mimo-v2.6-flash, mimo-v2.6-pro, mimo-v2.6-pro-ultraspeed support web search.
