This PR is part of the documentation revamp. Once the full set of PRs is merged, we’ll publish the combined site to staging for review before updating docs.lancedb.com. Ingestion, search and integration examples are incomplete or inconsistent across languages, and some guidance misstates SDK behavior. This brings the guides and their example sources together. It includes complete Python, TypeScript and Rust workflows, isolated provider and reranker examples, the Superlinked corrections, and guidance on retries that can duplicate writes. Stacked on #4491. Each MDX file has one PR owner. Rebase onto main after #4491 is squash-merged. Local assembly, Mint validation and link checks pass. Example code is unchanged from the previously validated package. Publication stays held through integration.

# Jina Reranker
|
||
|
||
This reranker uses the [Jina](https://jina.ai/reranker/) API to rerank the search results. You can use this reranker by passing `JinaReranker()` to the `rerank()` method. Note that you'll either need to set the `JINA_API_KEY` environment variable or pass the `api_key` argument to use this reranker.
|
||
|
||
|
||
> **Note:** Supported query types – Hybrid, Vector, and FTS.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Replace the credential placeholders with your provider credentials. In application code, load credentials from environment variables or a secrets manager.
