If you’re new to Unstructured, read this note first.

Before you can create a destination connector, you must first sign up for Unstructured. After you sign up, the Unstructured user interface (UI) appears, which you use to create the destination connector.

After you create the destination connector, add it along with a source connector to a workflow. Then run the worklow as a job. To learn how, try out the hands-on UI quickstart or watch the 4-minute video tutorial.

You can also create destination connectors with the Unstructured API. Learn how.

If you need help, reach out to the community on Slack, or contact us directly.

You are now ready to start creating a destination connector! Keep reading to learn how.

Send processed data from Unstructured to Pinecone.

The following video shows how to fulfill the minimum set of Pinecone requirements:

Here are some more details about the requirements:

  • A Pinecone account. Get an account.

  • A Pinecone API key. Get an API key.

  • A Pinecone serverless index. Create a serverless index.

    Unstructured recommends that all records in the target index have a field named record_id with a string data type. Unstructured can use this field to do intelligent document overwrites. Without this field, duplicate documents might be written to the index or, in some cases, the operation could fail altogether.

To create the destination connector:

  1. On the sidebar, click Connectors.
  2. Click Destinations.
  3. Cick New or Create Connector.
  4. Give the connector some unique Name.
  5. In the Provider area, click Pinecone.
  6. Click Continue.
  7. Follow the on-screen instructions to fill in the fields as described later on this page.
  8. Click Save and Test.

Fill in the following fields:

  • Name (required): A unique name for this connector.
  • Index Name (required): The name of the index in the Pinecone database.
  • Batch Size: The number of records to use in a single batch. The default is 50 if not otherwise specified.
  • API Key (required): The Pinecone API key.
