Error upserting embeddings to Pinecone

[tjb4578]

Just got the site up and running locally on windows. Whenever I try to upload a file, I either get a timeout after ~5 minutes or I receive the following error after a couple seconds. I've tried both txt and pdf files but am getting the same result.

Total chunks: 144
Total embeddings: 144
Embeddings length: 1536

this seems to be a problem with Pinecone's starter plan. I spent a lot of time trying to get around this error but ended up figuring out that I can't use the API at all. try any request with your API key, and you will probably get 403 or 401 errors. https://docs.pinecone.io/docs/manage-data#connect

all we can do is wait for Pinecone to fix this issue or decide what will they do with the starter plan.

You're right, just tried a postman request and got a 403. Weird how Pinecone doesn't mention API at all in their pricing, I kind of just assumed it'd be included in their starter plan.
