Hi TJ,

Welcome to Pinecone!

Let’s get your first Pinecone RAG index up and running.

Start with these 4 steps:

1. Install the Pinecone SDK (https://email.pinecone.io/e3t/Ctc/UA+113/c-gWn04/VXg4jk1dDt_rW30Pg1x62MX1NW6wcfC_5JP0hbN2z6H2F3l5QzW7lCdLW6lZ3pQW5V-TXs8h7sWbW8JC4Gk80HdBcN3hMLxHPVhvLW7Wd9gW530cmkW95Cr0q6QQFv2W1VDpBw7mmw0qN8Kv65PPJqYwW1JwKXg1yBy3DN4J7zpyKxpxfW8SH0QK6hhLrtN1D-wN-3GX9cW3q94kx4Q1bklW1ZBTjq45-mTHW47-7VK7BzLwrW1Qz2Mw92LRD_MW3DXS8x8ZqVkb74Y6dTlKBW3Gyl5t4-ctWHW7czk0h4Vq5g1W1-jVtY2jVS85W6m7r2K8J0XgXVhhPsQ3WhY6gW2Vz2zD6xbMdYW3GkxCq6cVjgBf6bXcyz04 )
