from pinecone import Pinecone, ServerlessSpec

# Create a serverless index
# "dimension" needs to match the dimension of your embedding model
pc = Pinecone(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")

pc.create_index(name="example-index", dimension=1024, 
    spec=ServerlessSpec(cloud='aws', region='us-east-1') 
)

# Target the index
index = pc.Index("example-index")

# Embed your data
vector = pc.inference.embed(
    model="multilingual-e5-large",
    inputs=["The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."],
    parameters={
        "input_type": "passage",
        "truncate": "END"
    }
)

# Upsert your vector embedding(s)
upsert_response = index.upsert(
  vectors=[
    {
        "id": "some_id", 
        "values": vector[0].values, 
        "metadata": { "description": "English pangram" }
