Portkey Provider Slug: upstage

​
Overview

Portkey offers native integrations with Upstage for Node.js, Python, and REST APIs. By combining Portkey with Upstage, you can create production-grade AI applications with enhanced reliability, observability, and advanced features.

Upstage Documentation

Explore the official Upstage documentation for comprehensive details on their APIs and models.

​
Getting Started

1

Obtain your Upstage API Key

Visit the Upstage dashboard to generate your API key.
2

Create a Virtual Key in Portkey

Portkey’s virtual key vault simplifies your interaction with Upstage. Virtual keys act as secure aliases for your actual API keys, offering enhanced security and easier management through budget limits to control your API usage.Use the Portkey app to create a virtual key associated with your Upstage API key.
3

Initialize the Portkey Client

Now that you have your virtual key, set up the Portkey client:

​
Portkey Hosted App

Use the Portkey API key and the Upstage virtual key to initialize the client in your preferred programming language.
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 for Upstage
)

​
Open Source Use

Alternatively, use Portkey’s Open Source AI Gateway to enhance your app’s reliability with minimal code:
from portkey_ai import Portkey, PORTKEY_GATEWAY_URL

portkey = Portkey(
    api_key="dummy",  # Replace with your Portkey API key
    base_url=PORTKEY_GATEWAY_URL,
    Authorization="UPSTAGE_API_KEY", # Replace with your Upstage API Key
    provider="upstage"
)
🔥 That’s it! You’ve integrated Portkey into your application with just a few lines of code. Now let’s explore making requests using the Portkey client.

​
Upstage Supported Features

​
Chat Completions

Generate chat completions using Upstage models through Portkey: 
completion = portkey.chat.completions.create(
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Say this is a test"}],
    model="solar-pro"
)

print(completion.choices[0].message.content)

​
Streaming

Stream responses for real-time output in your applications: 
chat_complete = portkey.chat.completions.create(
    model="solar-pro",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Say this is a test"}],
    stream=True
)

for chunk in chat_complete:
    print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content or "", end="", flush=True)

​
Function Calling

Leverage Upstage’s function calling capabilities through Portkey: 
let tools = [{
    type: "function",
    function: {
        name: "getWeather",
        description: "Get the current weather",
        parameters: {
            type: "object",
            properties: {
                location: { type: "string", description: "City and state" },
                unit: { type: "string", enum: ["celsius", "fahrenheit"] }
            },
            required: ["location"]
        }
    }
}];

let response = await portkey.chat.completions.create({
    model: "solar-pro",
    messages: [
        { role: "system", content: "You are a helpful assistant." },
        { role: "user", content: "What's the weather like in Delhi - respond in JSON" }
    ],
    tools,
    tool_choice: "auto",
});

console.log(response.choices[0].finish_reason);

​
Embeddings

Generate embeddings for text using Upstage embedding models: 
response = portkey.embeddings.create(
    input="Your text string goes here",
    model="embedding-query"
)

print(response.data[0].embedding)

​
Portkey’s Advanced Features

​
Track End-User IDs

Portkey allows you to track user IDs passed with the user parameter in Upstage requests, enabling you to monitor user-level costs, requests, and more: 
response = portkey.chat.completions.create(
  model="solar-pro",
  messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Say this is a test"}],
  user="user_123456"
)
When you include the user parameter in your requests, Portkey logs will display the associated user ID, as shown in the image below: Portkey Logs with User ID In addition to the user parameter, Portkey allows you to send arbitrary custom metadata with your requests. This powerful feature enables you to associate additional context or information with each request, which can be useful for analysis, debugging, or other custom use cases.

​
Using The Gateway Config

Here’s a simplified version of how to use Portkey’s Gateway Configuration:
1

Create a Gateway Configuration

You can create a Gateway configuration using the Portkey Config Dashboard or by writing a JSON configuration in your code. In this example, requests are routed based on the user’s subscription plan (paid or free).
config = {
  "strategy": {
    "mode": "conditional",
    "conditions": [
      {
        "query": { "metadata.user_plan": { "$eq": "paid" } },
        "then": "solar-pro"
      },
      {
        "query": { "metadata.user_plan": { "$eq": "free" } },
        "then": "gpt-3.5"
      }
    ],
    "default": "base-gpt4"
  },
  "targets": [
    {
      "name": "solar-pro",
      "virtual_key": "xx"
    },
    {
      "name": "gpt-3.5",
      "virtual_key": "yy"
    }
  ]
}
2

Process Requests

When a user makes a request, it will pass through Portkey’s AI Gateway. Based on the configuration, the Gateway routes the request according to the user’s metadata.Conditional Routing Diagram
3

Set Up the Portkey Client

Pass the Gateway configuration to your Portkey client. You can either use the config object or the Config ID from Portkey’s hosted version.
from portkey_ai import Portkey

portkey = Portkey(
    api_key="PORTKEY_API_KEY",
    virtual_key="VIRTUAL_KEY",
    config=portkey_config
)
That’s it! Portkey seamlessly allows you to make your AI app more robust using built-in gateway features. Learn more about advanced gateway features:

Load Balancing

Distribute requests across multiple targets based on defined weights.

Fallbacks

Automatically switch to backup targets if the primary target fails.

Conditional Routing

Route requests to different targets based on specified conditions.

Caching

Enable caching of responses to improve performance and reduce costs.

​
Guardrails

Portkey’s AI gateway enables you to enforce input/output checks on requests by applying custom hooks before and after processing. Protect your user’s/company’s data by using PII guardrails and many more available on Portkey Guardrails: 
{
	"virtual_key":"upstage-xxx",
	"before_request_hooks": [{
		"id": "input-guardrail-id-xx"
	}],
	"after_request_hooks": [{
		"id": "output-guardrail-id-xx"
	}]
}
