# ##################################
# Connect with the Vector Search Index
# ##################################
vs_client = VectorSearchClient()
vs_index = vs_client.get_index(
endpoint_name="vector_search_endpoint",
index_name="vector_index_name",
)
# ##################################
# Set the Vector Search index right into a LangChain retriever
# ##################################
vector_search_as_retriever = DatabricksVectorSearch(
vs_index,
text_column='chunk_text',
columns=['chunk_id', 'chunk_text', 'document_uri'],
).as_retriever()
# ##################################
# RAG Chain
# ##################################
immediate = PromptTemplate(
template = "Reply the query...",
input_variables = ["question", "context"],
)
chain = (
vector_search_as_retriever,
| immediate
| ChatDatabricks(endpoint='dbrx_endpoint')
| StrOutputParser()
)The very first thing we need to do is leverage MLflow to allow traces and deploy the applying. This may be executed by including three easy strains within the utility code (above) that permit Agent Framework to supply traces and a straightforward approach to observe and debug the applying.
## Allow MLflow Tracing
mlflow.langchain.autolog()
## Inform MLflow in regards to the schema of the retriever in order that
# 1. Evaluate App can correctly show retrieved chunks
# 2. Agent Analysis can measure the retriever
############
mlflow.fashions.set_retriever_schema(
primary_key='chunk_id'),
text_column='chunk_text',
doc_uri='document_uri'), # Evaluate App makes use of `doc_uri` to show
chunks from the identical doc in a single view
)
## Inform MLflow logging the place to seek out your chain.
mlflow.fashions.set_model(mannequin=chain)
MLflow Tracing gives observability into your utility throughout growth and manufacturing
The following step is to register the GenAI utility in Unity Catalog and deploy it as a proof of idea to get suggestions from stakeholders utilizing Agent Analysis’s overview utility.

UC_MODEL_NAME='databricks-rag-app'
# Register the chain to UC
uc_registered_model_info = mlflow.register_model(model_uri=model_uri,
identify=UC_MODEL_NAME)
# Use Agent Framework to deploy a mannequin registed in UC to the Agent
Analysis overview utility & create an agent serving endpoint
deployment_info = brokers.deploy(model_name=UC_MODEL_NAME,
model_version=uc_model.model)
# Assign permissions to the Evaluate App any person in your SSO
