When an error occurs in an upstream provider, we can recover by routing to another healthy provider, if your request filters allow it.

Sample code and API for R1 (free)
OpenRouter normalizes requests and responses across providers for you.
OpenRouter provides an OpenAI-compatible completion API to 300+ models & providers that you can call directly, or using the OpenAI SDK. Additionally, some third-party SDKs are available.
In the examples below, the OpenRouter-specific headers are optional. Setting them allows your app to appear on the OpenRouter leaderboards.
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
base_url="https://openrouter.ai/api/v1",
api_key="<OPENROUTER_API_KEY>",
)
completion = client.chat.completions.create(
extra_headers={
"HTTP-Referer": "<YOUR_SITE_URL>", # Optional. Site URL for rankings on openrouter.ai.
"X-Title": "<YOUR_SITE_NAME>", # Optional. Site title for rankings on openrouter.ai.
},
extra_body={},
model="deepseek/deepseek-r1:free",
messages=[
{
"role": "user",
"content": "What is the meaning of life?"
}
]
)
print(completion.choices[0].message.content)
Using third-party SDKs
For information about using third-party SDKs and frameworks with OpenRouter, please see our frameworks documentation.
See the Request docs for all possible fields, and Parameters for explanations of specific sampling parameters.
