DeepSeek
DeepSeek ↗ helps you build quickly with DeepSeek's advanced AI models.
https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/deepseekWhen making requests to DeepSeek, ensure you have the following:
- Your AI Gateway Account ID.
 - Your AI Gateway gateway name.
 - An active DeepSeek AI API token.
 - The name of the DeepSeek AI model you want to use.
 
Your new base URL will use the data above in this structure:
https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/deepseek/.
You can then append the endpoint you want to hit, for example: chat/completions.
So your final URL will come together as:
https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/deepseek/chat/completions.
curl https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/deepseek/chat/completions \ --header 'content-type: application/json' \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer DEEPSEEK_TOKEN' \ --data '{    "model": "deepseek-chat",    "messages": [        {            "role": "user",            "content": "What is Cloudflare?"        }    ]}'If you are using the OpenAI SDK, you can set your endpoint like this:
import OpenAI from "openai";
const openai = new OpenAI({  apiKey: env.DEEPSEEK_TOKEN,  baseURL:    "https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/deepseek",});
try {  const chatCompletion = await openai.chat.completions.create({    model: "deepseek-chat",    messages: [{ role: "user", content: "What is Cloudflare?" }],  });
  const response = chatCompletion.choices[0].message;
  return new Response(JSON.stringify(response));} catch (e) {  return new Response(e);}You can also use the OpenAI-compatible endpoint (/ai-gateway/usage/chat-completion/) to access DeepSeek models using the OpenAI API schema. To do so, send your requests to:
https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/compat/chat/completionsSpecify:
{"model": "deepseek/{model}"}Was this helpful?
