By default, all the responses sent back from Portkey are compliant with the OpenAI specification.

In some cases, a response from a provider like Perplexity may contain useful fields which do not have a corresponding 1:1 mapping to OpenAI fields. To get those fields in the response, you can do one of the following:

  • Python SDK: Pass this parameter strict_open_ai_compliance=false when initializing the portkey client
  • Node SDK: Pass this parameter strictOpenAiCompliance: false when initializing the portkey client
  • HTTP requests: Pass this header x-portkey-strict-open-ai-compliance: false with your request
from portkey_ai import Portkey

portkey = Portkey(
    api_key="PORTKEY_API_KEY",  # Replace with your Portkey API key
    virtual_key="VIRTUAL_KEY",   # Replace with your virtual key
    strict_open_ai_compliance=false
)
