Creates an asynchronous research task that explores the web, gathers sources, synthesizes findings, and returns results with citations. The API responds immediately with a researchId for polling completion status. Use this when you need to generate: 1. Structured JSON matching an outputSchema you provide 2. A detailed markdown report when no schema is provided After creation, poll the research task status using the researchId to retrieve the final results when completed.
