VariableRequiredDescription
QDRANT_API_KEYYesQdrant database API key for your cluster Docs.

​
Setup

  1. Create a Qdrant Cloud account: Sign up at https://cloud.qdrant.io - the free tier includes a 1GB cluster, enough for testing. Self-hosted Qdrant works too (run it with an api-key configured).
  2. Create a cluster and API key: Create a cluster, then open its API Keys tab and create a database API key. Copy it immediately - it is only shown once.
  3. Store the key and note your endpoint: Add QDRANT_API_KEY=… to your .env file. Copy the cluster endpoint hostname from Cluster details - tools take it as the clusterHost parameter without scheme or port (e.g. xyz-example.eu-central-1-0.aws.cloud.qdrant.io); requests go to port 6333.
  4. Verify access: Run the List Collections tool with your clusterHost.
  • The API key is sent in the api-key header; Qdrant Cloud also accepts Authorization: Bearer
  • Every tool needs the clusterHost parameter (hostname only; requests target HTTPS port 6333) - there is no global Qdrant API host
  • Vectors must match the collection’s configured vector size; generate embeddings separately (e.g. with OpenAI or Mistral)
