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 use https://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.
