Your endpoint is compatible with the OpenAI Chat Completions API and the Anthropic Messages API. Keep the SDK you already use and change the base URL and the API key, then pass the model ID in the model field.

Prerequisites

  • An active contract. The model’s Deploy options card shows Provisioned capacity is live. See Manage your contract.
  • Your API key, issued when the contract starts (or the sample key during the proof of concept).
  • The model ID, copied from the model page. See Browse models.

Endpoint

Example request

Set your API key as the VESSL_API_KEY environment variable first:
Get started on the model page opens these same requests with that model’s ID already filled in.

Check the dashboard

Once traffic flows through your endpoint, the model page’s Usage summary shows token usage and cost, and the Monitoring Dashboard tracks token usage, performance, and reliability. See Monitor inference status.
