Quick Start
This page gets you from an API key to a working request.
1. Create a key
Open the rout.my dashboard, create an API key, and keep it private. API keys begin with sk_.
2. Save the key
macOS or Linux:
bash
export ROUTMY_API_KEY="sk_your_key_here"Windows PowerShell:
powershell
$env:ROUTMY_API_KEY="sk_your_key_here"3. Pick a model ID
List the models visible to your account:
bash
curl https://api.rout.my/v1/models \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $ROUTMY_API_KEY"Copy one exact id from the response. The examples below use provider/model-id as a placeholder.
4. Send a chat request
bash
curl https://api.rout.my/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $ROUTMY_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "provider/model-id",
"messages": [
{ "role": "user", "content": "Write one sentence about rout.my." }
]
