## **Dappier AI Recommendations API**

The **Dappier AI Recommendations API** uses the following endpoint:

```
POST https://api.dappier.com/app/v2/search?data_model_id={data_model_id}
```

This endpoint allows applications to retrieve **personalized and real-time content** based on a query. It fetches **news, updates, and analysis** from top publishers, making it an excellent tool for building an AI-powered sports news aggregator.

### **Usage in Python**

The API can be used to fetch the latest sports news with a simple function call:

```python theme={null}
response = app.get_ai_recommendations(
    query="latest sports news",
    data_model_id="dm_01jagy9nqaeer9hxx8z1sk1jx6",  # Sports News Model
    similarity_top_k=5,
    ref="sportsnaut.com",
    num_articles_ref=2,
    search_algorithm="most_recent"
)
```

### **Parameters**

* **query (str)**: The user-provided search query (e.g., `"latest sports news"`).
* **data\_model\_id (str)**: The **Sports News Model ID** from the **Dappier Marketplace**.
* **similarity\_top\_k (int)**: The number of articles to return (default: `9`).
* **ref (str)**: The domain to prioritize (e.g., `"sportsnaut.com"`).
* **num\_articles\_ref (int)**: The number of guaranteed articles from the chosen domain.
* **search\_algorithm (str)**: `"semantic"` for contextual matching or `"most_recent"` for sorting by latest articles.

In our **Sports News Summarizer**, we will use this API to retrieve **real-time sports news**.
