FAQ

Questions about Create Embedding.

What does the Create Embedding action do in Writer?
Generates vector embeddings using Writer's Palmyra-Embedding model. Use for enterprise RAG pipelines where you want a single vendor for generation and embeddings.
What inputs does Create Embedding require?
Required: Text. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
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 Writer returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Create Embedding support batch operations?
Yes. Run Create Embedding inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Writer's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
