All requests must include an Authorization: Bearer <TOKEN> header. Generate keys from the Keys page; keys can be scoped to specific models, groups, IP ranges, and rate limits.

Supported parameters

NameTypeDescription
include_reasoning
max_tokensintegerMaximum number of tokens to generate in the completion.
reasoning
reasoning_effortstringConstrains effort on reasoning. Supported values: "low", "medium", "high".
response_formatobjectSpecifies the output format. Use {"type": "json_object"} for JSON mode.
seedintegerIf specified, the system will attempt deterministic sampling for reproducible results.
temperaturenumberSampling temperature between 0 and 2. Higher values make output more random.
top_pnumberNucleus sampling. The model considers tokens with top_p probability mass.

These are the request parameters this model accepts. Parameter semantics follow the OpenAI Chat Completions specification.
