Get Key

The GetKey request retrieves specific entries from an AI store by their exact keys. This is a direct lookup operation that returns the stored data and metadata for the provided keys.

Parameters

• store – Name of the AI store to query
• keys – List of StoreInput keys to retrieve (the original inputs used when storing)

Behavior

• Performs exact key lookup (not similarity search)
• Returns entries with stored data and metadata for each found key
• Missing keys are silently skipped (no error for non-existent keys)
• Useful for retrieving known items you previously stored

      # Response contains entries for each found key
      for entry in response.entries:
          print(f"Key: {entry.key}")
          print(f"Value: {entry.value}")


if __name__ == "__main__":
  asyncio.run(get_key())

Response

Returns a list of entries, where each entry contains:

• key – The original StoreInput that was stored
• value – The associated metadata (StoreValue)

If a requested key doesn't exist in the store, it won't appear in the results.
