LLM Index Text

It takes text input, processes it using a specified language model to generate embeddings, and stores these embeddings in a chosen vector database.

Prerequisites

Task parameters

Configure these parameters for the LLM Index Text task.

Parameter Description Required/ Optional
inputParameters.vectorDB The vector database to store the data.

Note: If you haven’t configured the vector database on your Orkes Conductor cluster, navigate to the Integrations tab and configure your required provider.
Required.
inputParameters.namespace Namespaces are separate isolated environments within the database to manage and organize vector data effectively. Enter the namespace the task will utilize.

The usage and terminology of the namespace field vary depending on the integration:
  • For Pinecone, the namespace field is applicable.
  • For Weaviate, the namespace field is not applicable.
  • For MongoDB, the namespace field is referred to as “Collection” in MongoDB.
  • For Postgres, the namespace field is referred to as “Table” in Postgres.
Required.
inputParameters.index The index in your vector database where the text or data will be stored.

The terminology of the index field varies depending on the integration:
  • For Weaviate, the index field indicates the collection name.
  • For other integrations, it denotes the index name.
Required.
inputParameters.embeddingModelProvider The LLM provider for generating the embeddings.

Note: If you haven’t configured your AI/LLM provider on your Orkes Conductor cluster, navigate to the Integrations tab and configure your required provider.
Required.
inputParameters.embeddingModel The embedding model provided by the selected LLM provider to generate the embeddings. Required.
inputParameters.dimensions The size of the vector, which is the number of elements in the vector. Optional.
inputParameters.text The text to be indexed. Required.
inputParameters.docId A unique ID to identify the document where the indexed text will be stored. Required.

The following are generic configuration parameters that can be applied to the task and are not specific to the LLM Index Text task.

Caching parameters

You can cache the task outputs using the following parameters. Refer to Caching Task Outputs for a full guide.

Parameter Description Required/ Optional
cacheConfig.ttlInSecond The time to live in seconds, which is the duration for the output to be cached. Required if using cacheConfig.
cacheConfig.key The cache key is a unique identifier for the cached output and must be constructed exclusively from the task’s input parameters.
It can be a string concatenation that contains the task’s input keys, such as ${uri}-${method} or re_${uri}_${method}.
Required if using cacheConfig.
Other generic parameters

Here are other parameters for configuring the task behavior.

Parameter Description Required/ Optional
optional Whether the task is optional.

If set totrue, any task failure is ignored, and the workflow continues with the task status updated to COMPLETED_WITH_ERRORS. However, the task must reach a terminal state. If the task remains incomplete, the workflow waits until it reaches a terminal state before proceeding.
Optional.

Task output

There is no output. The LLM Index Text task will store the indexed data in the specified vector database.
