Although it is stated that GSE tokenizer is available from WCD v1.24, it seems that it is still unavailable (When I try to use it, the error message suggests I have to set environmental variable ENABLE\_TOKENIZER\_GSE to be true but I cannot do that on WCD), the reference is here.

I really need to use hybrid search with decent tokenizer for my  
Japanese client and it will be great if I could use GSE somehow on  
WCD.

Thanks.

hi @dnot23 !

Sorry for the delay here. Missed this one.

We are working on allowing changing more configurations in our WCD serverless offering.

Right now we enable this configuration for `Bring your Own Cloud` offering.

While I do not have an ETA for this feature, I know this is a prio in our roadmap.

Thanks!

Hi! We have Update for this thread 🙂

We can now enable customer tokenizers in your Cluster hosted at Weaviate!

So if you need `gse`, `kagome_ja` or `kagome_kr` you can reach out to our support team at: [Weaviate Cloud](https://console.weaviate.cloud/support)

Thanks!
