Fill in any <CODE_BLOCK_N> placeholders and run the cells under the Step 4: Create a vector search index section in the notebook to create a vector search index.

The answers for code blocks in this section are as follows:

CODE_BLOCK_1

Answer

CODE_BLOCK_2

To verify that the index was created, navigate to Search Indexes for the chunked_articles collection.

The index is ready to use once the status changes from PENDING to READY.
