API Key

# env variable
os.environ['NEBIUS_API_KEY']

Sample Usage: Text Generation

from litellm import completion

os.environ['NEBIUS_API_KEY'] = "insert-your-nebius-ai-studio-api-key"
response = completion(
    model="nebius/Qwen/Qwen3-235B-A22B",
    messages=[
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": "What character was Wall-e in love with?",
        }
    ],
    max_tokens=10,
    response_format={ "type": "json_object" },
    seed=123,
    stop=["\
\
"],
    temperature=0.6,  # either set temperature or `top_p`
    top_p=0.01,  # to get as deterministic results as possible
    tool_choice="auto",
    tools=[],
    user="user",
)
print(response)

Sample Usage - Streaming

from litellm import completion

os.environ['NEBIUS_API_KEY'] = ""
response = completion(
    model="nebius/Qwen/Qwen3-235B-A22B",
    messages=[
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": "What character was Wall-e in love with?",
        }
    ],
    stream=True,
    max_tokens=10,
    response_format={ "type": "json_object" },
    seed=123,
    stop=["\
\
"],
    temperature=0.6,  # either set temperature or `top_p`
    top_p=0.01,  # to get as deterministic results as possible
    tool_choice="auto",
    tools=[],
    user="user",
)

for chunk in response:
    print(chunk)

Sample Usage - Embedding

from litellm import embedding

os.environ['NEBIUS_API_KEY'] = ""
response = embedding(
    model="nebius/BAAI/bge-en-icl",
    input=["What character was Wall-e in love with?"],
)
print(response)

Usage with LiteLLM Proxy Server

Here's how to call a Nebius AI Studio model with the LiteLLM Proxy Server

1. Modify the config.yaml

model_list:
  - model_name: my-model
    litellm_params:
      model: nebius/<your-model-name>  # add nebius/ prefix to use Nebius AI Studio as provider
      api_key: api-key                 # api key to send your model

2. Start the proxy

$ litellm --config /path/to/config.yaml

3. Send Request to LiteLLM Proxy Server

client = openai.OpenAI(
    api_key="litellm-proxy-key",             # pass litellm proxy key, if you're using virtual keys
    base_url="http://0.0.0.0:4000" # litellm-proxy-base url
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="my-model",
    messages = [
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": "What character was Wall-e in love with?"
        }
    ],
)

print(response)

curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \\
    --header 'Authorization: litellm-proxy-key' \\
    --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \\
    --data '{
    "model": "my-model",
    "messages": [
        {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "What character was Wall-e in love with?"
        }
    ],
}'
