OpenAI embeddings not available

Why are the OpenAI models not available for embedding when I create an index? I only see Microsoft, LLaMA, and Pinecone. Does anyone know why the other options aren’t showing up?

Hi Felipe,

We’ve updated the Create Index page to differentiate between Pinecone-hosted models (which can be used for Integrated Inference) and external embedding models (which can still be found! See below).

  • External models
    Select a model via the Autofill button or type the model specs in manually (Pinecone supports any embedding model within our specified limits)
    AutoFill OpenAI models

  • Integrated Inference
    If you’re curious, you can let Pinecone manage the embedding process for you—see how to use integrated inference in our docs.

Let me know if you have any questions.
