Create a database in 30 seconds

Chroma Cloud has the same API as local Chroma - just use the Cloud Client.

python

# pip install chromadb
import chromadb
# Connect to Chroma Cloud
client = chromadb.CloudClient()
collection = client.get_or_create_collection(name="my_documents")
collection.add(
    documents=[
        "Hello, world!",
        "Chroma is a retrieval database for AI applications.",
        "Try vector, full-text, regex, and metadata search."
    ],
    metadatas=[
        {"source": "tutorial", "type": "greeting"},
        {"source": "tutorial", "type": "description"},
        {"source": "tutorial", "type": "features"}
    ],
    ids=["doc1", "doc2", "doc3"]
)
# Vector search for "greeting"
results = collection.query(
    query_texts=["greeting"],
    n_results=1,
    where={"source": "tutorial"},
    include=["documents", "metadatas"]
)
print(results)
