Thank you! I changed my sql query such that  both arguments inside the VECTOR_COSINE() function should be $vector. i.e. sql = "select top 3 maxID, activity, outcome from Main.KimAITest order by VECTOR_COSINE(TO_VECTOR(Embeddings, double), TO_VECTOR(:newembeddingstr, double)) desc" I no longer see the same errors as previously mentioned, but now the for loop on the result set is returning an error. 

Loop failed with SQLCODE: -400 ObjectScript error: <ZVOPL>%0AmBs1^%sqlcq.USER.cls151.1

The same for loop works when the sql query does not include the VECTOR_COSINE() function.

Thanks! Here is the result of print(new_embedding_str): -0.012367633, 0.08229666, -0.045526657, -0.021790344, -0.09783857, 0.011233694, 0.11478377, 0.015476992, 0.066593476, -0.028646931, -0.00035714556,

This is also the format the embeddings are stored (1 embedding per row) in the vector database. The main difference between what is printed here and what I am familiar with when using Jupyter Notebook/Google Colab is the array isn't wrapped in square brackets and it hasn't been converted to a numpy array format but I don't think that is the issue here...?

Yep, this bypasses the parameter issue Benjamin described, but I still get this error. ObjectScript error: <PYTHON EXCEPTION> *<class 'OSError'>: isc_stdout_write: PyArg_ParseTuple failed!
