Google VertexAI RAG Retrieval Query
Overview
Use this Snap to retrieve embeddings from the RAG corpus.

Read-type Snap
Works in Ultra Tasks
Prerequisites
You need to have one of the following accounts configured for your Google VertexAI Snaps:
Snap views
View | Description | Examples of upstream and downstream Snaps |
---|---|---|
Input | This Snap has at the most one document input view. |
|
Output |
his Snap has at the most one document output view.
|
|
Error |
Error handling is a generic way to handle errors without losing data or failing the Snap execution. You can handle the errors that the Snap might encounter when running the pipeline by choosing one of the following options from the When errors occur list under the Views tab. The available options are:

Snap settings
- Expression icon (
): Allows using JavaScript syntax to access SnapLogic Expressions to set field values dynamically (if enabled). If disabled, you can provide a static value. Learn more.
- SnapGPT (
): Generates SnapLogic Expressions based on natural language using SnapGPT. Learn more.
- Suggestion icon (
): Populates a list of values dynamically based on your Snap configuration. You can select only one attribute at a time using the icon. Type into the field if it supports a comma-separated list of values.
- Upload
: Uploads files. Learn more.
