FAQPage Schema
How do I automate image search and save results locally for a specific topic?

Automating image search requires a Google Custom Search API key and CX to fetch structured image metadata for queries, saving the top results directly to a user-specified local directory. This automates the discovery and collection of relevant visuals.

Can I insert Google image search results directly into Obsidian notes?

Inserting image search results into Obsidian notes is supported by fetching contextually relevant images and adding automatic image embeds into the notes. This note enrichment streamlines adding visuals to presentations or documentation.

How do I run batch image searches from a JSON configuration?

Running batch image searches involves loading a JSON config file to generate and execute multiple image search queries automatically. The structured metadata and local downloads for all queries are then processed sequentially.

Do I need an OpenRouter API key to use the Google image search automation?

An OpenRouter API key is optional for image search automation, primarily enabling LLM-based image scoring and final selection. The core Google Custom Search functionality only strictly requires a Google API key and CX.

What is the best way to enrich my notes with relevant visuals using automated search?

The best way to enrich notes with visuals is using AI-powered image search to retrieve contextually relevant images and insert automatic embeds. An optional OpenRouter-based LLM can score and select the most appropriate images for note enrichment.
