Authenticate with an API key

The header in which to include the API key and the base URL to set in the SDK

This page explains how to authenticate with an API key to the CLEVI gateway.
Both the OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible paths use a single key for authentication,
but the accepted header for the key and the base URL to set in the SDK differ by specification.

Authentication headers

Both compatible specifications use a single API key for authentication. The key is issued on the API key page in the console, where you can also revoke it and manage its usage scope.

HeaderOpenAI-compatibleAnthropic-compatible
X-API-Key: <키>AcceptedAccepted
Authorization: Bearer <키>AcceptedAccepted
Authorization: <키> (without Bearer)RejectedAccepted

Header names are case-insensitive. x-api-key sent by the Anthropic SDK also works as is.

base URL

SDKs you already use will continue to work if you change only the base URL to one of the addresses below. The two addresses differ in whether they include /v1.

Specificationbase URLPath rules
OpenAI-compatiblehttps://platform.clevi.net/api/v2/aiservice/openai/v1Include up to /v1 in the base URL.
Anthropic-compatiblehttps://platform.clevi.net/api/v2/aiservice/anthropicThe Anthropic SDK adds /v1 to the path automatically, so the base URL ends before /v1.

Verify authentication

You can immediately verify authentication by adding the key and base URL and retrieving the model list. The three examples below perform the same retrieval using curl, the OpenAI SDK, and the Anthropic SDK.

curl https://platform.clevi.net/api/v2/aiservice/openai/v1/models \
  -H "X-API-Key: sk-..."

curl https://platform.clevi.net/api/v2/aiservice/anthropic/v1/models \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-..." \
  -H "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01"
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="sk-...",
    base_url="https://platform.clevi.net/api/v2/aiservice/openai/v1",
)

for model in client.models.list():
    print(model.id)
from anthropic import Anthropic

client = Anthropic(
    api_key="sk-...",
    base_url="https://platform.clevi.net/api/v2/aiservice/anthropic",
)

for model in client.models.list(limit=20).data:
    print(model.id)

Replace sk-... with the key issued on the API key page.

  • A 200 response means authentication was successful. data contains the list of models that can be called with this key.
  • If the response is 401, check in the order described in the Authentication failure section below.

Headers used together

All are optional. To track issues, it is advisable to include X-Request-Id.

HeaderPurposeIf omitted
X-Request-IdIdentifier for tracking requests. It is returned as the request-id header in Anthropic-compatible responses.Issued by the server.
X-Region-CodeRegion for the callglobal.
X-Product-Sku (also available as the product_sku query parameter)Directly specifies the Product SKU to use for billing. The header takes precedence over the query parameter and is mainly used for audio and voice routes.Required for voice routes. For audio/speech and audio/transcriptions, select the Product using model in the request body.
anthropic-version / anthropic-betaPassed through unchanged on Anthropic-compatible routes.The version is 2023-06-01.

Authentication failure

If you send a missing, expired, or revoked key, the response is 401. If you make a call without a key on the OpenAI-compatible route, the response body below is returned, and the error.type on the Anthropic-compatible route is authentication_error.

{
  "error": {
    "message": "API key is required.",
    "type": "invalid_request_error"
  }
}
  1. Check the key status on the API key page. If the key has expired or been revoked, issue a new one.
  2. Check whether the header name is X-API-Key or Authorization.
  3. If you use Authorization on the OpenAI-compatible route, check the Bearer prefix.
