Search

Run Onyx's internal search and get back ranked document sections, with no LLM answer generated.

This is the same multi-stage retrieval pipeline the chat Search action uses: query expansion, hybrid retrieval, reranking and section merging. Results are ordered most relevant first and are always filtered by the calling user's document permissions.
