# Nomic
The `nomic-embed-text-v1` model is an open source [8192 context length](https://github.com/nomic-ai/contrastors) text encoder.
While you can find it on the [Hugging Face Hub](https://huggingface.co/nomic-ai/nomic-embed-text-v1),
you may find it easier to obtain them through the [Nomic Text Embeddings](https://docs.nomic.ai/reference/endpoints/nomic-embed-text).
Once installed, you can configure it with the official Python client or through direct HTTP requests.
<aside role="status">Using Nomic Text Embeddings requires configuring the Nomic API token</aside>
You can use Nomic embeddings directly in Qdrant client calls. There is a difference in the way the embeddings
are obtained for documents and queries. The `task_type` parameter defines the embeddings that you get.
For documents, set the `task_type` to `search_document`:
```python
from qdrant_client import QdrantClient, models
from nomic import embed
output = embed.text(
texts=["Qdrant is the best vector database!"],
model="nomic-embed-text-v1",
task_type="search_document",
)
qdrant_client = QdrantClient()
qdrant_client.upsert(
collection_name="my-collection",
points=models.Batch(
ids=[1],
vectors=output["embeddings"],
),
)
```
To query the collection, set the `task_type` to `search_query`:
```python
output = embed.text(
texts=["What is the best vector database?"],
model="nomic-embed-text-v1",
task_type="search_query",
)
qdrant_client.search(
collection_name="my-collection",
query=output["embeddings"][0],
)
```
