Once you have created your integration with Pinecone, specify a source tag when instantiating clients with Pinecone SDKs, or pass a source tag as part of the User-Agent header when using the API directly.

Anyone can create an integration, but becoming an official Pinecone partner can help accelerate your go-to-market and add value to your customers.

Source tag naming conventions#

Your source tag must follow these conventions:

Clearly identify your integration.
Use only lowercase letters, numbers, underscores, and colons.

For example, for an integration called “New Framework”, "new_framework" is valid, but "new framework" and "New_framework" are not valid.

Specify a source tag#

Pinecone SDK	Required version
Python	v3.2.1+
Node.js	v2.2.0+
Java	v1.0.0+
Go	v0.4.1+
.NET	v1.0.0+
