OpenAI SDK (Python)

Copy the configuration and replace sk-... with your key from the Ailoot Dashboard. Prefer storing the key in the environment variable AILOOT_API_KEY, if the application supports it.

Before starting, request GET /v1/models with your Ailoot key. Choose an exact model ID whose methods include POST /v1/chat/completions, POST /v1/responses, then use that ID in the configuration. For agents, also check tool support and the features required by your client version.

export AILOOT_API_KEY="sk-..."
# environment variables
export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://api.ailoot.ai/v1"
export OPENAI_API_KEY="$AILOOT_API_KEY"

# or in code

ailoot-openai-python-sdk.py

import os
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(max_retries=0, base_url="https://api.ailoot.ai/v1", api_key=os.environ["AILOOT_API_KEY"])
r = client.chat.completions.create(model="gpt-6.1-sol", messages=[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}])
print(r.choices[0].message.content)
# Responses API: client.responses.create(model="gpt-6.1-sol", input="Hello")
# Embeddings: client.embeddings.create(model="nemotron-3-embed", input=["text"])

Example model: gpt-6.1-sol, claude-sonnet-5-5, deepseek-v4-pro, qwen3.8-max (chat); nemotron-3-embed (embeddings). Choose any other model from the catalog — check that it supports the format you need.

• For the OpenAI format, the URL is https://api.ailoot.ai/v1 (or the full path if the application asks for a full URL).
• Ask a short question. If you get an error, check the code and Request ID, then consult Errors and limits.
• 404 immediately after setup almost always means the URL is wrong: an extra or missing /v1.
• 402 — insufficient balance for the reserve. Agents reserve more than chat: why.
