Pinecone not updating chunks when using Google Drive “File Updated” trigger

I’m building a workflow that starts with a Google Drive Trigger for File Updated. The workflow downloads the updated Google Doc, splits it into chunks, and stores the embeddings in Pinecone.

The problem is:

  • When a file is updated, the workflow runs, but Pinecone does not update the existing chunks.

  • Instead, it adds new chunks, creating duplicates.

Has anyone solved this in n8n?

Hi there @Matto , welcome to the community, i think for that flow, you need to somehow delete the old not update chunks and then insert a new one

you can try and see this tutorial about it, and you can even try the templates for free
