Getting started

When consuming Continuum via the public API you have to verify the deployment and take care of prompt encryption. The easiest way to handle these tasks is to rely on the continuum-proxy.

If you want to interact with API directly, see the OpenAI API section for more information.

Authentication

To interact with Continuum's SaaS API, you need to authenticate using an API key. Your requests must include your API key in the Authorization HTTP header:

Authorization: Bearer <CONTINUUM_API_KEY>

Alternatively, you can configure the continuum-proxy to add the Authorization header to your requests.

Send an email to continuum-preview@edgeless.systems, stating that you want to test the API if you want a free API key.

Offered model

In the request body, the model parameter needs to be set to a value from the above list (see Open API Request body). For example, the model property of a request may be set like this: model: "hugging-quants/Meta-Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct-AWQ-INT4".
