Pinecone documentation is quite good, but when I wanted to create a free pod index in Pinecone using Python I didn’t know what parameters I should supply.
Specifically, I couldn’t understand what values would be the values for environment
and pod_type
After a bit of digging (looking at the WebUI) here is how to do it
from pinecone import Pinecone, PodSpec pc = Pinecone(api_key='<<PINECONE_API_KEY>>') pc.create_index( name="example-index", dimension=1536, metric="cosine", spec=PodSpec( environment='gcp-starter', pod_type='s1.x1' ) )
