});

const completion = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: 'MODEL_NAME',
  messages: [{role: 'user', content: 'Introduce yourself in one sentence.'}],

console.log(completion.choices[0].message.content);

Image endpoints​

In addition to chat completions, Orbit AI API also supports OpenAI-compatible image generation and image editing. See Image Generation and Editing for full parameters, cURL examples, and SDK samples.

Common integration checks​

  • 401: The API key is usually missing, incorrect, disabled, or sent with a malformed authorization header.
  • 404: Confirm that the Base URL includes /v1 and that the request path matches the API type.
  • Model unavailable: Use the exact model name shown in the console, as described in Model list.
