# ML Commons API
---
Table of contents
{: .text-delta }

---
The ML Commons API lets you train machine learning (ML) algorithms synchronously and asynchronously, make predictions with that trained model, and train and predict with the same dataset.
To train tasks through the API, three inputs are required:
- Algorithm name: Must be one of a [FunctionName](https://github.com/opensearch-project/ml-commons/blob/1.3/common/src/main/java/org/opensearch/ml/common/parameter/FunctionName.java). This determines what algorithm the ML Engine runs. To add a new function, see [How To Add a New Function](https://github.com/opensearch-project/ml-commons/blob/main/docs/how-to-add-new-function.md).
- Model hyperparameters: Adjust these parameters to improve model accuracy.
- Input data: The data that trains the ML model, or applies the ML models to predictions. You can input data in two ways, query against your index or use a data frame.
## Model access control considerations
For clusters with model access control enabled, users can perform API operations on models in model groups with specified access levels as follows:
- `public` model group: Any user.
- `restricted` model group: Only the model owner or users who share at least one backend role with the model group.
- `private` model group: Only the model owner.
For clusters with model access control disabled, any user can perform API operations on models in any model group.
Admin users can perform API operations for models in any model group.
For more information, see [Model access control]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/ml-commons-plugin/model-access-control/).
## Training the model
The train API operation trains a model based on a selected algorithm. Training can occur both synchronously and asynchronously.
### Request
The following examples use the k-means algorithm to train index data.
**Train with k-means synchronously**

"_source": ["petal_length_in_cm", "petal_width_in_cm"],
"size": 10000
},
"input_index": [
"iris_data"
]
}
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}
### Response
**Synchronous**
For synchronous responses, the API returns the `model_id`, which can be used to get or delete a model.
```json
{
"model_id" : "lblVmX8BO5w8y8RaYYvN",
"status" : "COMPLETED"
}
```
**Asynchronous**
For asynchronous responses, the API returns the `task_id`, which can be used to get or delete a task.
```json
{
"task_id" : "lrlamX8BO5w8y8Ra2otd",
"status" : "CREATED"
}
```
## Getting model information
You can retrieve model information using the `model_id`.

## Registering a model
All versions of a particular model are held in a model group. You can either [register a model group]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/ml-commons-plugin/model-access-control#registering-a-model-group) before registering a model to the group or register a first version of a model, thereby creating the group. Each model group name in the cluster must be globally unique.
If you are registering the first version of a model without first registering the model group, a new model group is created automatically with the following name and access level:
- Name: The new model group will have the same name as the model. Because the model group name must be unique, ensure that your model name does not have the same name as any model groups in the cluster.
- Access level: The access level for the new model group is determined using the `access_mode`, `backend_roles`, and `add_all_backend_roles` parameters that you pass in the request. If you provide none of the three parameters, the new model group will be `private` if model access control is enabled on your cluster and `public` if model access control is disabled. The newly registered model is the first model version assigned to that model group.
Once a model group is created, provide its `model_group_id` to register a new model version to the model group. In this case, the model name does not need to be unique.
If you're using [pretrained models]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/ml-commons-plugin/pretrained-models#supported-pretrained-models) provided by OpenSearch, we recommend that you first register a model group with a unique name for these models. Then register the pretrained models as versions to that model group. This ensures that every model group has a globally unique model group name.
{: .tip}
For information about user access for this API, see [Model access control considerations](#model-access-control-considerations).
If the model is more than 10 MB in size, ML Commons splits it into smaller chunks and saves those chunks in the model's index.

## Profile
The profile operation returns runtime information about ML tasks and models. The profile operation can help debug model issues at runtime.
### The number of requests returned
By default, the Profile API monitors the last 100 requests. To change the number of monitoring requests, update the following cluster setting:
```json
PUT _cluster/settings
{
"persistent" : {
"plugins.ml_commons.monitoring_request_count" : 1000000
}
}
```
To clear all monitoring requests, set `plugins.ml_commons.monitoring_request_count` to `0`.

## Deleting a task
Delete a task based on the task_id.
ML Commons does not check the task status when running the `Delete` request. There is a risk that a currently running task could be deleted before the task completes. To check the status of a task, run `GET /_plugins/_ml/tasks/` before task deletion.
{: .note}
```json
DELETE /_plugins/_ml/tasks/{task_id}
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}
The API returns the following:
```json
{
"_index" : ".plugins-ml-task",
"_id" : "xQRYLX8BydmmU1x6nuD3",
"_version" : 4,
"result" : "deleted",
"_shards" : {
"total" : 2,
"successful" : 2,
"failed" : 0
},
"_seq_no" : 42,
"_primary_term" : 7
}
```
## Stats
Get statistics related to the number of tasks.
To receive all stats, use:
```json
GET /_plugins/_ml/stats
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}
To receive stats for a specific node, use:
```json
GET /_plugins/_ml//stats/
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}
To receive stats for a specific node and return a specified stat, use:
```json
GET /_plugins/_ml//stats/
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}
To receive information on a specific stat from all nodes, use:
```json
GET /_plugins/_ml/stats/
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}
### Example: Get all stats
```json
GET /_plugins/_ml/stats
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}

```
## Execute
Some algorithms, such as [Localization]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/ml-commons-plugin/algorithms#localization), don't require trained models. You can run no-model-based algorithms using the `execute` API.
```json
POST _plugins/_ml/_execute/
```
### Example: Execute localization
The following example uses the Localization algorithm to find subset-level information for aggregate data (for example, aggregated over time) that demonstrates the activity of interest, such as spikes, drops, changes, or anomalies.
```json
POST /_plugins/_ml/_execute/anomaly_localization
{
"index_name": "rca-index",
"attribute_field_names": [
"attribute"
],
"aggregations": [
{
"sum": {
"sum": {
"field": "value"
}
}
}
],
"time_field_name": "timestamp",
"start_time": 1620630000000,
"end_time": 1621234800000,
"min_time_interval": 86400000,
"num_outputs": 10
}
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}
