#quick start

Point the base_url of any OpenAI compatible SDK to our gateway and start calling. The first response usually comes back within a few seconds.

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="sk-xc-your-key-here",
    base_url="https://api.nexevo.ai/v1",
)

resp = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="nexevo/balanced",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)

#Authentication

Create an API key on the Keys page and put it in the Authorization header in the form of Bearer token. Every request requires a legitimate key; revoked or expired keys are immediately rejected.

http

GET /v1/billing/balance HTTP/1.1
Host: api.nexevo.ai
Authorization: Bearer sk-xc-abc123...

Single key settings (sub-limit/IP whitelist/model restrictions/expiration) can be configured on the Keys page. Used to issue restricted-scope keys to different applications or environments.

Do not hardcode keys on the front end

API key is equivalent to password and can only be used on the backend server. Front-end/mobile apps should be called through your own middle layer to avoid directly exposing sk-xc-* in the browser/client.
