Description

Describe the bug

I opened a similar issue in the Semantic Kernel repository (it was one of the reasons I came to this repository). https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/issues/8934

I can't use Weaviate Vector Store with Google Vertex AI (and, I suspect, other integrations with Weaviate may not be working either).

This is my code:

        var provider = new VertexAIProvider(new VertexAIConfiguration
        {
            GoogleCredential = GoogleCredential.FromFile("D:\\code\\my-google-cloud-project.json"),
            Location = "us-central1",
        });
        var embeddingModel = new VertexAIEmbeddingModel(provider, id: "text-multilingual-embedding-002");
        var llm = new VertexAIChatModel(provider, id: "gemini-1.5-pro-001");

        
        var weviateApiKey = "weaviate-api-key";
        var collection = "Test_Collection";
        WeaviateMemoryStore memoryStore = new("https://my-weaviate-endpoint.c0.us-east1.gcp.weaviate.cloud", weviateApiKey);
        var vectorDatabase = new WeaviateVectorDatabase(memoryStore);

        // Exeception is thrown here
        var vectorCollection = await vectorDatabase.AddDocumentsFromAsync<PdfPigPdfLoader>(
            embeddingModel, // Used to convert text to embeddings
            dimensions: 384, // Should be 384 for all-minilm
            dataSource: DataSource.FromUrl("https://canonburyprimaryschool.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Joanne-K.-Rowling-Harry-Potter-Book-1-Harry-Potter-and-the-Philosophers-Stone-EnglishOnlineClub.com_.pdf"),
            collectionName: "harrypotter", // Can be omitted, use if you want to have multiple collections
            textSplitter: null,
            behavior: AddDocumentsToDatabaseBehavior.JustReturnCollectionIfCollectionIsAlreadyExists);


        const string question = "What is Harry's Address?";
        var similarDocuments = await vectorCollection.GetSimilarDocuments(embeddingModel, question, amount: 5);
        // Use similar documents and LLM to answer the question
        var answers = llm.GenerateAsync(
            $"""
             Use the following pieces of context to answer the question at the end.
             If the answer is not in context then just say that you don't know, don't try to make up an answer.
             Keep the answer as short as possible.

             {similarDocuments.AsString()}

             Question: {question}
             Helpful Answer:
             """);
        
        await foreach (var answer in answers)
        {
            Console.WriteLine($"LLM answer: {answer}");
        }

I keep getting the same error:

Microsoft.SemanticKernel.HttpOperationException: Response status code does not indicate success: 401 (Unauthorized).

   at Program.<Main>(String[] args)

I suspect that the Semantic Kernel library (responsible for the WeaviateMemoryStore class, on which this library is dependent) is not placing the necessary headers in requests managed by the Vector database classes. For instance, the Weaviate documentation (https://weaviate.io/developers/weaviate/model-providers/google/embeddings) says that, for the integration with Vertex AI to work, the Vertex AI API key must be passed in the request header in the X-Google-Vertex-Api-Key field. In the case of Open AI, it would be the X-OpenAI-Api-Key field.

Alternatively, would there be any way to use Weaviate with this Langchain library without going through the Semantic Kernel?

  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start with WeaviateMemoryStore.ExecuteHttpRequestAsync and inspect the request path reached by DoesCollectionExistAsync. Then trace SemanticKernelMemoryDatabase.cs:34 and VectorDatabaseExtensions.cs:42 while reproducing the 401 from the provided example. Done means the reported Weaviate operation authenticates successfully, or the unsupported integration and required configuration are documented.
