AI-generated Key Takeaways
-
The endpoint
value:compute
computes an arbitrary value based on an input expression. -
This computation can fail if the result is not expressible as a Value or requires excessive resources.
-
The HTTP request uses a POST method to
https://earthengine.googleapis.com/v1beta/{project=projects/*}/value:compute
. -
The request body requires an
expression
and optionally accepts aworkloadTag
. -
The response body returns the computed
result
as avalue
format.
Computes an arbitrary value. This will fail if the result of the Expression is not something that is expressible as a Value, or if its evaluation requires too many resources. While it is possible (and not an error) to compute any type of object here, in general any Expression producing results that are better suited to one of the other Compute* endpoints should use that endpoint instead (e.g., an Expression whose result is a set of features should use ComputeFeatures).
HTTP request
POST https://earthengine.googleapis.com/v1beta/{project=projects/*}/value:compute
