Response of MemoryWebClient.Ask is different from REST API

[imranshams]

I have a deployed instance in Azure, with some imported data, when I call the POST ASK with following format:

{
  "index": "default",
  "question": "Who is John Snow?"
}

And if I call it with MemoryWebClient with the same API URL & Key in the following way:

var _kernelMemory = new MemoryWebClient(kernelMemoryConfig.BaseAddress, apiKey: kernelMemoryConfig.ApiKey);
var answer = await _kernelMemory.AskAsync(
                query,
                index: "default",
                minRelevance: 0.0
            );

There result are different, the REST API result is better and correct but not the MemoryWebClient!

Did I something wrong?

@imranshams could you please provide some more info:

• are the two answers always the same, or do they change if you try multiple times?
• which AI service and model are you using?
• which vector store are you using?
• could you provide the answers, assuming this is test data with no private info?

Hi @dluc,

Would you happen to have any ideas or suggestions?

The first thing I would check are the logs, making sure the "index" parameter is passed through in both cases and the value is the same.

I have just one index (default) and the index and query are exactly same.

I apologize for the confusion earlier. I’ve identified the issue—my plugin input was altered by the GenAI model, which caused the query to be different. I appreciate your time and assistance, and I’m sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. Thank you so much for your help!
