How to force the question & answer node to search for data from a pinecode store?

[Joao]

Hi,

I’d like the “question & answer” node to search for data stored in a pinecone index before answering the question.

How can I force this type of behavior?

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

• n8n version:
• Database (default: SQLite):
• n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
• Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
• Operating system:

Hi @Joao ,

Thanks for posting! Could you share your full workflow, especially what you have before the Question and Answer Chain? What issues are you seeing?

Tip for sharing your workflow in the forum

Pasting your n8n workflow

Ensure to copy your n8n workflow and paste it in the code block, that is in between the pairs of triple backticks, which also could be achieved by clicking </> (preformatted text) in the editor and pasting in your workflow.

```
<your workflow>
```

Make sure that you’ve removed any sensitive information from your workflow and include dummy data or pinned data as much as you can!
