Analyze cigar-band evidence
Use band analysis after fingerprinting when two or more candidates remain plausible. It compares the observed band palette and color roles with stored candidate fingerprints. It does not perform a general catalog search.

The complete object returned by the fingerprint endpoint.
object[]
required
From 1 through 20 plausible candidates. Each candidate requires cigarId and can include brand, name, score, and prior evidence.
boolean
Search a bounded set of stored fingerprints from the supplied brand when none of the supplied candidates has a credible color match.
Fewer than two usable stored candidate fingerprints can return reference_fingerprints_pending. A strong conflict can return candidateSetMatch: false without inventing a replacement candidate. Pass the complete response to Identify as stageResults.bandAnalysis. Visible printed cigar-name text remains stronger evidence when it conflicts with palette analysis.
