AddToVectorDatabase [db,{vec1,…}]
adds a list of vectors veci to the VectorDatabaseObject […] db.
AddToVectorDatabase [db,{vec1,…}{val1,…}]
adds new vector veci and associated value vali to the database db.
Details
- AddToVectorDatabase extends an existing VectorDatabaseObject with additional data, expanding the database’s storage and search capabilities.
- The database can be specified using:
-
"string" a string matching a named vector databasedb a VectorDatabaseObject
- Possible values for the data to be added include:
-
{vec1,…} a list of vectors{vec1val1,…} a list of vectors and associated values{vec1,…}{val1,…} a rule between vectors and values
- If db contains annotated vectors, each new veci should be tagged the same way. »
- Accepted forms of vali include:
-
"string" string labels<|"tag1"v1,…|> an association of tags and metadata values

Applications (1)
A single incorrect element will cause the database creation to fail:
To add all elements that are valid, create a empty database:
Use AddToVectorDatabase to incrementally add only the valid elements:
The three valid elements have been added to the database:
Properties & Relations (1)
Create a named vector database:
Update the database via its name:
The database will be updated in all places it is referenced:
Possible Issues (2)
Create a vector database:
Additional vectors must be of the same dimensions as the input:
Create a vector database with labeled vectors:
New elements must follow the same format:
Add an annotation in order to add the vector:
