How to connect Knack and Pinecone
Create a New Scenario to Connect Knack and Pinecone
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Knack, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Knack or Pinecone will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Knack or Pinecone, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Knack Node
Select the Knack node from the app selection panel on the right.


Knack

Add the Pinecone Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Knack node, select Pinecone from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Pinecone.

Authenticate Pinecone
Now, click the Pinecone node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Pinecone settings. Authentication allows you to use Pinecone through Latenode.
Configure the Knack and Pinecone Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Knack and Pinecone Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Knack, Pinecone, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Knack and Pinecone integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Knack and Pinecone (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Knack and Pinecone
Knack + OpenAI ChatGPT + Pinecone: When a new record is created in Knack, the data is sent to OpenAI ChatGPT to generate a summary. This summary is then stored as a vector in Pinecone, providing contextual information for future AI interactions.
Knack + Pinecone + Airtable: When new customer feedback is submitted through Knack, the feedback is stored in Pinecone. Airtable then retrieves relevant feedback from Pinecone and visualizes trends in customer sentiment.
