You can find your BerryDB **api_key** [**`here`**](https://app.berrydb.io/settings).

**Example**:

```python
from berrydb import Settings

# Initialize a settings builder
settings_builder = Settings.Builder()

# Configure Transformation Settings
settings_builder.transform_settings(
    filter_action="include",
    filter_expr=['content.text']
)

# Configure Retrieval Settings
settings_builder.retrieval_settings(
    k=10,
    number_of_search_docs=2,
    tracing_api_key=None,
    tracing_project_name="berrydb",
    similarity_search_type="cosine",
    fts=False  # Set to True if using Full-Text Search
)

# Configure Embedding Settings
settings_builder.embed_settings(
    provider="openai",
    model="text-embedding-3-small"
)

# Configure Chat Settings
settings_builder.chat_settings(
    provider="openai",
    model="gpt-4o-mini",
    temperature=0.0,
    system_prompt="Answer the question diligently"
)

# Build the settings object
settings = settings_builder.build()

# Save settings to BerryDB
berrydb_api_key = "your_api_key_here"  # Replace with your BerryDB API key
settings.save(berrydb_api_key, "my-settings")
```
