SiliconFlow

With Portkey, you can take advantage of features like fast AI gateway access, observability, prompt management, and more, all while ensuring the secure management of your LLM API keys through a virtual key system.

​

Portkey SDK Integration with SiliconFlow Models

Portkey provides a consistent API to interact with models from various providers. To integrate SiliconFlow with Portkey:

​

1. Install the Portkey SDK

Add the Portkey SDK to your application to interact with SiliconFlow’s API through Portkey’s gateway.

• NodeJS
• Python

npm install --save portkey-ai

​

2. Initialize Portkey with the Virtual Key

To use SiliconFlow with Portkey, get your API key from here, then add it to Portkey to create the virtual key.

• NodeJS SDK
• Python SDK

import Portkey from 'portkey-ai'

const portkey = new Portkey({
    apiKey: "PORTKEY_API_KEY", // defaults to process.env["PORTKEY_API_KEY"]
    virtualKey: "VIRTUAL_KEY" // Your Silicon Flow
})

​

3. Invoke Chat Completions with SiliconFlow

Use the Portkey instance to send requests to SiliconFlow. You can also override the virtual key directly in the API call if needed.

• NodeJS SDK
• Python SDK

const chatCompletion = await portkey.chat.completions.create({
    messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Say this is a test' }],
    model: 'deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V2-Chat',
});
console.log(chatCompletion.choices);

​

Managing SiliconFlow Prompts

You can manage all prompts to SiliconFlow in the Prompt Library. All the current models of SiliconFlow are supported and you can easily start testing different prompts.

Once you’re ready with your prompt, you can use the portkey.prompts.completions.create interface to use the prompt in your application.

The complete list of features supported in the SDK are available on the link below.

You’ll find more information in the relevant sections:

1. Add metadata to your requests
2. Add gateway configs to your SiliconFlow requests
3. Tracing SiliconFlow requests
4. Setup a fallback from OpenAI to SiliconFlow APIs
