# How to setup Pinecone Vector Database for AnythingLLM
[Official Pinecone Docs](https://docs.pinecone.io/docs/overview) for reference.
### How to get started
**Requirements**
- Pinecone account with index that allows namespaces.
**Note:** [Namespaces are not supported in `gcp-starter` environments](https://docs.pinecone.io/docs/namespaces) and are required to work with AnythingLLM.
**Instructions**
- Create an index on your Pinecone account. Name can be anything eg: `my-primary-index`
- Metric `cosine`
- Dimensions `1536` since we use OpenAI for embeddings
- 1 pod, all other default settings are fine.
```
VECTOR_DB="pinecone"
PINECONE_ENVIRONMENT=us-west4-gcp-free
PINECONE_API_KEY=sklive-123xyz
PINECONE_INDEX=my-primary-index # the value from the first instruction!
```
