Cohere
Cohere is an enterprise artificial intelligence platform that provides access to large language models (LLMs) and natural language processing (NLP) capabilities through API services. The platform specializes in delivering foundation models and generative AI solutions for text generation, semantic search, text classification, content moderation, and embedding generation.

Before you start
Huntbase signs in to Cohere with API Key. Create the credential in Cohere first, then keep it to hand for the Connect step.
- Sign in to the Cohere dashboard and open the API keys page (
dashboard.cohere.com/api-keys). - Create a trial or production key, give it a name, and copy it.
- Trial keys are free but have low rate limits and a monthly call cap. Use a production key for regular use.
- A key has the same permissions as the user who created it, and changes if that user's permissions change.
For the vendor's own instructions, see Cohere API key types.
Use a dedicated, read-only credential for Huntbase where the product allows it. Huntbase only needs to read.
Connect Cohere
- Go to Connections and click New connection, or click New connection on the Cohere product page.
- On Product, pick Cohere and choose the Owner.
- On Details, give the connection a Name and, optionally, a Description.
- On Connect, fill in the settings and credentials described below.
- On Verify, review the summary and click Create & check.
For everything else on the setup page — saving a draft, I'll do this later, and what each check result means — see Connections.
Credentials
The only Method is API Key. Enter a Credential label (for example Production), then fill in:
| Field | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| API Key | Yes | Secret — not shown again after you save it. |
Query it
Once connected, Cohere can serve these languages in a query tab, and Scout can use it when you ask in Auto:
| Language | Use it for |
|---|---|
| SQLite | SQL across this source and every other connected source. |
