How to Use the Correct Payload Field to Retrieve Original Markdown Text in Qdrant
The post content has been automatically edited by the Moderator Agent for consistency and clarity.
Want to use over 200+ MCP servers inside your coding tools like Cursor?
I've manually loaded a Markdown document into a Qdrant collection with arbitrary metadata (without using LangChain), and while the embedding-based search is functioning, the retrieved document's “pageContent” field is empty.
I need to know which field name should be used in the payload of a Qdrant Point so that the original markdown text (before embedding) is stored in the “pageContent” field when retrieved.
For example, instead of using:
JSON{ "content": "Your markdown text here", "metadata": { … } }
You should use:
JSON{ "page_content": "Your markdown text here", "metadata": { … } }
Additional details:
- n8n version: 1.79.3
- Database: SQLite
- n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting: own
- Running n8n via: npm
- Operating system: Mac OS 15.3.1(24D70)

When manually loading data into Qdrant to mimic LangChain's behavior, the payload must include the field named page_content (all lowercase with an underscore) to ensure that when you retrieve a document, the “pageContent” field is populated with the original text. This is the field name LangChain expects for the document’s content.
For example, instead of:
JSON{ "content": "Your markdown text here", "metadata": { … } }
You would use:
JSON{ "page_content": "Your markdown text here", "metadata": { … } }
By ensuring that the point payload uses page_content, your embedded documents will have the original text retrievable in the “pageContent” field.
