Troubleshooting
401 or authentication errors
Make sure the API key is copied completely, has no extra spaces, and is enabled in the APIAny.AI dashboard.The model does not appear in the app
Enter the model ID manually and confirm it is available in the model catalog. Some tools do not fetch model lists automatically.Which Base URL should I use?
OpenAI-compatible settings usually usehttps://apiany.ai/v1; Claude-compatible settings usually use https://apiany.ai; tools that ask for a full endpoint use https://apiany.ai/v1/chat/completions.
