Example request

The example below calls chat-latest through OpenAI Chat Completions (/v1/chat/completions). Point base_url at https://api.apiyi.com/v1 — everything else matches the official API.

curl https://api.apiyi.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIYI_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "model": "chat-latest",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
  }'

Read the key from an environment variable, never hard-coded. In production, issue separate tokens per use case so you can revoke and attribute usage individually.
