What Pinecone indexes exist?
Short answer: You can list pinecone indexes in Pinecone by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Pinecone List Pinecone Indexes action to a workflow, map its 0 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ
Questions about List Pinecone Indexes.
What does the List Pinecone Indexes action do in Pinecone?
Returns every index in the connected project. Useful for inventory and for resolving index names at workflow setup.
What inputs does List Pinecone Indexes require?
List Pinecone Indexes has no required inputs. Sensible defaults are applied if you leave fields blank.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Pinecone returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Pinecone returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does List Pinecone Indexes support batch operations?
Run List Pinecone Indexes inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Pinecone's rate limits.

Action
Delete Pinecone Vectors
Removes vectors by ID list, by metadata filter, or by namespace. For "user churned → delete all their vectors" tenant-isolation workflows.
ActionDescribe Pinecone Index
Returns the index's dimension, metric, host, status. Useful for "is the index ready?" pre-flight checks before query workflows.
ActionDescribe Pinecone Index Stats
Returns vector count by namespace. Useful for capacity planning and for "did the bulk insert succeed?" post-operation verification.
ActionQuery Pinecone Vectors
Returns top-k nearest vectors with scores and metadata, optionally filtered by metadata. The standard RAG retrieval call — fetch top vectors, pass metadata to LLM for grounded answers.
ActionUpsert Pinecone Vectors
Batch-inserts up to 100 vectors with metadata and namespace. For bulk ingestion >100, pre-batch upstream. The standard "embed content → index in Pinecone" step.
