+#### Streaming Response (stream: true)
+
+When streaming is enabled, the API returns a stream of newline-delimited JSON objects. Each line contains a complete, valid JSON object. The response has Content-Type: application/json.
+
+Example of streamed response objects:
+
+```
+{"type":"init","data":"Stream connected"}
+{"type":"sources","data":[{"pageContent":"...","metadata":{"title":"...","url":"..."}},...]}
+{"type":"response","data":"Perplexica is an "}
+{"type":"response","data":"innovative, open-source "}
+{"type":"response","data":"AI-powered search engine..."}
+{"type":"done"}
+```
+
+Clients should process each line as a separate JSON object. The different message types include:
+
+- **`init`**: Initial connection message
+- **`sources`**: All sources used for the response
+- **`response`**: Chunks of the generated answer text
+- **`done`**: Indicates the stream is complete
+
 ### Fields in the Response
 
 - **`message`** (string): The search result, generated based on the query and focus mode.
