Create a dataset

A dataset is a named container for your documents. You must create a dataset before uploading files into it. When creating a dataset, you must specify a region — this determines where your data is physically stored. Once set, a dataset’s region cannot be changed. See available regions.

CLI
Python SDK
JavaScript SDK

Create a dataset with the CLI by specifying dataset name and region:

topk dataset create my-dataset --region aws-us-east-1-elastica

import os
from topk_sdk import Client

client = Client(
    api_key=os.environ["TOPK_API_KEY"],
    region=os.environ["TOPK_REGION"],
)

client.datasets().create("my-docs")

import { Client } from "topk-js";

const client = new Client({
  apiKey: process.env.TOPK_API_KEY!,
  region: process.env.TOPK_REGION!,
});

await client.datasets().create("my-docs");
