Description

I am a user of n8n and Milvus Db so cannot provide any code of mine, just my thoughts.

Given:

1. n8n MilvusVectorStore node uses langchain/community v0.3.50
2. Collection schema on Milvus db has field title_vector of SparseVectorType, which value is calculated on insert from title field
3. When I try to insert a document, the error with message "The field "title_vector" is not provided in documents[0].metadata."

After some research, I found out that this message is triggered in langchain/community package:

1. Package fetches collection schema: field title_vector is in the list (Postman shows that it has flag "isFunctionOutput": true)
2. On insert, package checks if doc.metadata map has entry for title_vector. If not - error link. The check is same in current version.
3. If I provide dummy data for title_vector in metadata, then Milvus returns error with message: "fail to deal the insert data, error: invalid parameter[expected=][actual=not allowed to provide input data for function output field: title_vector]"

I think, calculated on Db side fields should not be expected to be provided by client.
