tip

**We support ALL Sambanova models, just set model=sambanova/<any-model-on-sambanova> as a prefix when sending litellm requests. For the complete supported model list, visit https://docs.sambanova.ai/cloud/docs/get-started/supported-models **

Usage with LiteLLM Proxy Server

Here's how to call a Sambanova model with the LiteLLM Proxy Server

  1. Modify the config.yaml
model_list:
-model_name: my-model
litellm_params:
model: sambanova/<your-model-name># add sambanova/ prefix to route as Sambanova provider
api_key: api-key # api key to send your model
  1. Start the proxy
$ litellm --config /path/to/config.yaml
  1. Send Request to LiteLLM Proxy Server
  • OpenAI Python v1.0.0+
  • curl
import openai
client = openai.OpenAI(
api_key="sk-1234",# pass litellm proxy key, if you're using virtual keys
base_url="http://0.0.0.0:4000"# litellm-proxy-base url
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="my-model",
messages =[
{
"role":"user",
"content":"what llm are you"
}
],
)

print(response)
curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"model": "my-model",
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "what llm are you"
}
],
}'
