Basic settings

Database

Select the desired database type from the list and click Apply.

Property type Either Built-in or Repository .
  • Built-in: No property data stored centrally.
  • Repository: Select the repository file in which the properties are stored. The fields that follow are completed automatically using the data retrieved.
Schema and Edit Schema A schema is a row description, it defines the number of fields to be processed and passed on to the next component. The schema is either Built-in or stored remotely in the Repository.

  • Built-in: You create and store the schema locally for this component only. For more information about a component schema in its Basic settings tab, see Basic settings tab.

  • Repository: You have already created the schema and stored it in the Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs. For more information about a component schema in its Basic settings tab, see Basic settings tab.

Click Edit schema to make changes to the schema. If the current schema is of the Repository type, three options are available:

  • View schema: choose this option to view the schema only.

  • Change to built-in property: choose this option to change the schema to Built-in for local changes.

  • Update repository connection: choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion.

    If you just want to propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select No upon completion and choose this schema metadata again in the Repository Content window.

Operation
Select the operation you want to perform to the incoming data and data records in the Pinecone database table:
  • Upsert: Creates new records and overwrites existing records in the specified index namespace.
  • Query: Retrieves the IDs of the most similar records in the index, along with their similarity scores. You need to specify the number of results to return in the Top K field, knowing that this number is linked to the number of existing records: if you enter 7 in that field and the database only contains 5 records, you will get 5 records.
  • Fetch: Fetches records by ID from the specified index namespace.
  • Update: Updates existing records in the specified index namespace.
  • Delete: Removes records from the specified index namespace. If you need to apply this action on all the records of the specified namespace, select the Delete all check box that is displayed.
  • Get index stats: Gets the details of a Pinecone index.
