You can wire the Pinecone node into an AI agent as a tool provider: the agent calls the operations you allow. See Agent tools.
Credentials
Connect Pinecone under Credentials in the node settings. See Connecting credentials for the general flow. Enter the values manually when creating the credential. Get your credentials here.Operations
