In this guide, we will see how key management works in the AI Router and how you can integrate your own API keys from your LLM providers.

Benefits of using multiple API Keys

​
Credential Failure

Having a different API key available to use models can be useful in case one becomes invalid or for instance runs out of credit. Having an extra key configured on a fallback model can make sure you respond in all cases.

​
Multiple Environments

In case you have multiple API keys used for different purposes, this lets you organize your models to use the credentials dedicated to the correct environment.

​
Using a specific API key in model configuration

Once your API keys are configured within the Providers panel, you can select which key to use within Playground, Experiment, Deployment, and Agent. This applies to any model, including fallback models.

Why use your own API Keys

For production workloads, we highly recommend that you use your own API keys and Endpoints. This is because the keys and providers will have different rate limits, which you can hit when using our shared key. If you’re using your own API keys or endpoint, you have full control over those limits. Another important reason is costs and control. Having set up your own API key, the billing will be handled by the provider itself, allowing you to configure your limits.
