Use Exa Similar when you want a workflow step to start from a known URL and find similar pages inside Fetch Hive.

Configuration

This step starts with a source URL instead of a search phrase. You can still narrow the result set with Domain Filter, Include phrase, and Exclude phrase, then optionally turn on Text and Summary.

Output

Click Run in the step header to test the step. Fetch Hive shows the similar-page result output in Output after the run completes. Use the variable picker in a later step to insert the exact output path available for that run. The base reference is:
If you want the full result set, reference the base output directly:
The exact shape depends on which options you enable. Use the variable picker after a test run to inspect the returned fields.

Example

Add Exa Similar from the Research group in Search steps…. Set Name to something like Find similar vendor pages. Paste the source page into URL. If the URL comes from an earlier step, click Insert Variable and add that reference. Choose Number of results, then add an Include phrase or Exclude phrase if you want to tighten the match. If you want to limit where results can come from, add domains in Domain Filter and choose Include or Exclude. Turn Text on if you want content from each result, and turn Summary on if you want summaries for each result. Choose Charge type, click Run, and review the returned similar pages in Output.

Notes

  • Use Exa Similar when you already have a representative URL and want related pages. Use Exa Search when you want to start from a search query instead.
  • Include phrase and Exclude phrase each support a single phrase of up to five words in the current editor guidance.
  • Summary query is optional. If you leave it blank, Fetch Hive uses the step’s existing input context.
