# Pinecone - key and index - Credential setup | Docs - nodulz

Source: https://nodulz.com/docs/credentials/pinecone

Language: en

Credential type in nodulz : `vector:pinecone`.

## Create access

In the Pinecone console, create an API key for the project. Create or select an index matching embedding dimensions and retrieve its data host.

## Configure in nodulz

In your instance, open Credentials, select the type above, name the credential and complete these fields:

```text
apiKey, host, indexName
```

Save the credential, then select it on relevant nodes. URLs or parameters marked as node settings belong directly on that node.

## Things to check

Enter the index host rather than the console URL. indexName identifies the connector’s index.

Verify an operation with expected permissions and data before publishing. Keep secrets out of logs and revoke them with the provider when no longer needed.
