Cohere Detokenize API

The Cohere Detokenize API converts a sequence of token IDs back into their corresponding text string using the tokenizer for a specified model. It is the inverse operation of the Tokenize API and is useful for inspecting model outputs at the token level, debugging tokenization behavior, and reconstructing text from token representations.

Cohere Detokenize API is one of 9 APIs that cohere publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Tagged areas include Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing, Text Processing, and Tokenization. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and an OpenAPI specification.

This API exposes 1 operation across 1 path, and defines 3 schemas. It is described by OpenAPI 3.1.0, at version 2.0.
