The above errors out : (error message below)  
Input should be a valid dictionary or instance of \_NamedVectorConfigCreate [type=model\_type, input\_value=\_Multi2VecPalmConfig(vect…deoIntervalSeconds=None), input\_type=\_Multi2VecPalmConfig]

An example given at: ( [Collection definition | Weaviate Documentation](https://weaviate.io/developers/weaviate/config-refs/schema/multi-vector) )

```auto
collection = client.collections.create(

    description="Jeopardy game show questions",
    vectorizer_config=[
        wvc.config.Configure.NamedVectors.text2vec_cohere(
            name="jeopardy_questions_vector",

        wvc.config.Property(name="answer", data_type=wvc.config.DataType.TEXT),
    ],

```

Any suggestions on fixing the error I get? thanks

hi @Sridhar_Iyer !!

There is a small error in your named vectors definition 🙈

instead of  
`Configure.NamedVectors.multi2vec_palm`  
you are using  
`Configure.Vectorizer.multi2vec_palm`

when using the `NamedVectors`, you also need to pass a name for it

here is a working code:

```auto
from weaviate.classes.config import Configure, Property, DataType
client.collections.delete("Test")
client.collections.create(
        name="Test",

        vectorizer_config=[
           Configure.NamedVectors.text2vec_palm(
             name ="image_description",
             source_properties=["image_description"],
             project_id= "xxxx",
             api_endpoint="xxxx",
           ),
            Configure.NamedVectors.multi2vec_palm(
                name="image_and_summary",
                image_fields=["image"],
                text_fields=["summary_description"],
                project_id = "xxxx",
                location = "us-central1",
                model_id = "multimodalembedding@001",
                dimensions = 1408,
            ),
        ],
    properties=[
        Property(name="image", data_type=DataType.BLOB,),
        Property(name="image_description", data_type=DataType.TEXT),
        Property(name="summary_description", data_type=DataType.TEXT),
    ]
)

```

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks!
