Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 7 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Chroma, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Chroma. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Chroma owners ask.

  • 01

    Can my agent perform semantic search across my collections?

    Yes. Provide the vector embedding array in JSON format, and your agent will return the closest document matches along with their distance metrics. It is the perfect way to test your RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) logic without complex scripts.

  • 02

    How can I verify the health of my self-hosted Chroma instance?

    Simply ask your agent to check the heartbeat. The agent performs a nanosecond-level responsiveness test against your API nodes, confirming the physical database is active and reachable from the gateway.

  • 03

    I manage multiple tenants. how do I switch between them?

    You can define the tenant and database names during the setup phase. If you need to switch often, you can update the credentials in the dashboard. The agent uses these values for all collection and document operations to ensure strict isolation.
