Connecting to AI providers in astrsk.ai primarily involves using API Keys. These keys authenticate your application with the provider's services, allowing you to access their models.
¶ Connecting with API Keys
- Most providers require an API Key for connection. You will typically find an input field in the provider setup dialog where you can paste your key.
¶ Obtaining API Keys
- If you don't have an API Key for a specific provider, the connect-provider dialog often includes direct links to the provider's website or documentation where you can generate or find your API Key.
- Here's a list of supported providers and where to obtain their API keys: (Follow the instructions on the provider's website to generate your key, then return to astrsk.ai to paste it into the designated field)
