# vastai search benchmarks

Search for benchmark results using custom query

## Usage

```bash theme={null}
vastai search benchmarks [--help] [--api-key API_KEY] [--raw] <query>
```

## Arguments

<ParamField path="query" type="string" required>
  Search query in simple query syntax (see below)
</ParamField>

## Description

Query syntax:

query = comparison comparison...
comparison = field op value
field = \<name of a field>
op = one of: \<, \<=, ==, !=, >=, >, in, notin
value = \<bool, int, float, string> | 'any' | \[value0, value1, ...]
bool: True, False

note: to pass '>' and '\<' on the command line, make sure to use quotes
note: to encode a string query value (ie for gpu\_name), replace any spaces ' ' with underscore '\_'

## Examples

```bash theme={null}
# search for benchmarks with value > 100 on RTX 4090s for 2 specific machines
    vastai search benchmarks 'value > 100.0  gpu_name=RTX_4090  machine_id in [302,402]'
