Error on Query endpoint, `TypeError: replace() argument 2 must be str, not None`

Hey all,

I’m trying to query a database and I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Applications/PyCharm.app/Contents/plugins/python/helpers/pydev/_pydevd_bundle/pydevd_exec2.py", line 3, in Exec

My query should be fine (I think) my call looks like this:

 self.index.query(vector=query, top_k=top_k, include_values=include_values,
                                include_metadata=include_metadata, **kwargs)

where query is a list of floats equal to the length of my vector, top_k = 30, include_values=False, include_metadata=True, and kwargs = {‘namespace’: ‘default’} (all checked with debugger).

self.index.query is of type:

<bound method Index.query of <pinecone.index.Index object at 0x7f9356eb0880>>

Is this a user error problem or a Pinecone problem?

Nevermind. It was an initiation error, I passed None to the initializing Index call. Changing that to the actual index name fixed this.
