Detects faces in the input image and adds them to the specified collection.
Amazon Rekognition does not save the actual faces detected. Instead, the underlying detection algorithm first detects the faces in the input image, and for each face extracts facial features into a feature vector, and stores it in the back-end database. Amazon Rekognition uses feature vectors when performing face match and search operations using the and operations.
To get the number of faces in a collection, call .
If you are using version 1.0 of the face detection model, IndexFaces indexes the 15 largest faces in the input image. Later versions of the face detection model index the 100 largest faces in the input image. To determine which version of the model you are using, call and supply the collection ID. You also get the model version from the value of FaceModelVersion in the response from IndexFaces.
For more information, see Model Versioning in the Amazon Rekognition Developer Guide.
If you provide the optional ExternalImageID for the input image you provided, Amazon Rekognition associates this ID with all faces that it detects. When you call the operation, the response returns the external ID. You can use this external image ID to create a client-side index to associate the faces with each image. You can then use the index to find all faces in an image.
You can specify the maximum number of faces to index with the MaxFaces input parameter. This is useful when you want to index the largest faces in an image, and you don't want to index other faces detected in the image.
The QualityFilter input parameter allows you to filter out detected faces that don’t meet the required quality bar chosen by Amazon Rekognition. The quality bar is based on a variety of common use cases.
In response, the operation returns an array of metadata for all detected faces, FaceRecords. This includes:
The bounding box, BoundingBox, of the detected face.
A confidence value, Confidence, indicating the confidence that the bounding box contains a face.
A face ID, faceId, assigned by the service for each face that is detected and stored.
An image ID, ImageId, assigned by the service for the input image.
If you request all facial attributes (using the detectionAttributes parameter), Amazon Rekognition returns detailed facial attributes such as facial landmarks (for example, location of eye and mouth) and other facial attributes such gender. If you provide the same image, specify the same collection, and use the same external ID in the IndexFaces operation, Amazon Rekognition doesn't save duplicate face metadata.
Information about faces detected in an image, but not indexed, is returned in an array of objects, UnindexedFaces. Faces are not indexed for reasons such as:
The face is too blurry.
The image is too dark.
The face has an extreme pose.
The face is too small.
The number of faces detected exceeds the value of the MaxFaces request parameter.
For more information, see Adding Faces to a Collection in the Amazon Rekognition Developer Guide.
The input image is passed either as base64-encoded image bytes or as a reference to an image in an Amazon S3 bucket. If you use the Amazon CLI to call Amazon Rekognition operations, passing image bytes is not supported. The image must be either a PNG or JPEG formatted file.
This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:IndexFaces action.

)
string
[REQUIRED]
The ID of an existing collection to which you want to add the faces that are detected in the input images.
dict
[REQUIRED]
The input image as base64-encoded bytes or an S3 object. If you use the AWS CLI to call Amazon Rekognition operations, passing base64-encoded image bytes is not supported.
Bytes (bytes) --
Blob of image bytes up to 5 MBs.
S3Object (dict) --
Identifies an S3 object as the image source.
Bucket (string) --
Name of the S3 bucket.
Name (string) --
S3 object key name.
Version (string) --
If the bucket is versioning enabled, you can specify the object version.
string
ID you want to assign to all the faces detected in the image.
list
An array of facial attributes that you want to be returned. This can be the default list of attributes or all attributes. If you don't specify a value for Attributes or if you specify ["DEFAULT"], the API returns the following subset of facial attributes: BoundingBox, Confidence, Pose, Quality and Landmarks. If you provide ["ALL"], all facial attributes are returned but the operation will take longer to complete.
If you provide both, ["ALL", "DEFAULT"], the service uses a logical AND operator to determine which attributes to return (in this case, all attributes).
(string) --
integer
The maximum number of faces to index. The value of MaxFaces must be greater than or equal to 1. IndexFaces returns no more that 100 detected faces in an image, even if you specify a larger value for MaxFaces.
If IndexFaces detects more faces than the value of MaxFaces, the faces with the lowest quality are filtered out first. If there are still more faces than the value of MaxFaces, the faces with the smallest bounding boxes are filtered out (up to the number needed to satisfy the value of MaxFaces). Information about the unindexed faces is available in the UnindexedFaces array.
The faces returned by IndexFaces are sorted, in descending order, by the largest face bounding box size, to the smallest.
string
Specifies how much filtering is done to identify faces detected with low quality. Filtered faces are not indexed. If you specify AUTO, filtering prioritizes the identification of faces that don’t meet the required quality bar chosen by Amazon Rekognition. The quality bar is based on a variety of common use cases. Low quality detections can arise for a number of reasons. For example, an object misidentified as a face, a face that is too blurry, or a face with a pose that is too extreme to use. If you specify NONE, no filtering is performed. The default value is NONE.
