or provide a guide, please anything

Hey, can you please elaborate more on the issue you have? I believe that you should just be able to connect to it by using a reference variable, such as QDRANT_URL=[http://${{Qdrant.RAILWAY_PRIVATE_DOMAIN}}:${{Qdrant.PORT](http://${{Qdrant.RAILWAY_PRIVATE_DOMAIN}}:${{Qdrant.PORT)}}.

I will try that thanks, so my issue is that I don’t really know how to connect it and how to configure the connection in python

do i need to add http:// in the value when i add the variable in railway?

While it is not required, as you can add "http://" via code, I personally recommend to structure the URL as such.

You define the said reference (service) variable and read it as an environment variable within your codebase.

@uxuz still doesnt work, are there any other vector db template you can recommend?

I am not familiar with vector databases, so I can't personally recommend any.
