Include_answer changing results

Hi - I’ve noticed that specifying include_answer=True vs include_answer=‘advance’ can change not just the answer provided, but also the actual results returned by Tavily. Is this intended? I’ve been using tavily to look for executives at companies and have noticed the both the answer and the results are changing based on my parameters - so if I ask “who is the head of policy at company X” an advance answer and a basic answer will give different answers, plus different results.

Hi,

We’ve identified and resolved the issue you described.

This has now been fixed, and you should no longer see discrepancies in the results returned when the only parameter changed is in the answer type (unless, new information has been found). Please note that differences in the answers themselves are expected — the advanced type is designed to provide more detailed responses, while the basic type is intended to be more concise.

Best,
May
