# Get named entities

GET https://api.fastpix.com/v1/ai/{mediaId}/named-entities

This endpoint retrieves the named entities extracted from an existing media. The response includes each recognized entity and its category, which can be used for content discovery, indexing, tagging, or recommendation workflows.

#### How it works

1. Send a `GET` request to this endpoint, replacing `<mediaId>` with the ID of the media.
2. The response includes the job status and the generated named entities.

**Use case**: Use this endpoint to retrieve named entities for a video or other processed media.
