Making Requests

Learn how to make API requests correctly

Request Format

All API requests use the HTTPS protocol with JSON request bodies.

Required Headers

Header	Value	Description
Authorization	Bearer YOUR_API_KEY	API authentication key
Content-Type	application/json	Request body format

Optional Headers

Header	Value	Description
Accept	application/json	Response format

Request Example

curl https://crazyrouter.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-xxxxxxxx" \
  -d '{
    "model": "gpt-4o",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
    "stream": false
  }'

Streaming Requests

Set stream: true to enable SSE streaming output:

curl https://crazyrouter.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-xxxxxxxx" \
  -d '{
    "model": "gpt-4o",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
    "stream": true
  }'

Streaming responses use the Server-Sent Events (SSE) format. Each event starts with data: and the stream ends with data: [DONE].
