    Work with AI

    Endpoint quick-reference for Korean, global, and Chinese model providers: base URLs, OpenAI compatibility, and documentation links.

    Quickstart

    For basic chat, compatible providers can share a request format. Change the endpoint, API key and model ID together. Tool calling, reasoning, images and streaming vary; test against each provider’s documentation.

    # Basic chat example: endpoint, API key AND model ID are provider-specific
    curl https://api.upstage.ai/v1/chat/completions \
      -H "Authorization: Bearer $UPSTAGE_API_KEY" \
      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
      -d '{
        "model": "solar-pro3",
        "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "안녕하세요!"}]
      }'
