Filtering TinEye API results

TinEye API results can be filtered in two ways:

  • restricting results to “stock” or “collection” sites, and
  • restricting results to a single domain

Restricting results to "stock" or "collection" sites

The TinEye API indicates results found in curated collections such as Wikipedia, Flickr and NASA (which we call collection sites) and results found on sites where you can license images (which we call stock sites).

You can restrict your results to only collection sites or only stock sites by including the argument tags=collection or tags=stock in your request. To restrict results to either stock or collection sites, include the argument tags=collection,stock .

Restricting results to a single domain

You can also restrict your results to a single domain using the domain parameter. If you are only interested in results from example.com you would add the query parameter domain=example.com . Currently, the TinEye API can only do exact domain matches; wildcards and partial matches are not supported.
