5. **Dependencies**: Keep dependencies minimal and well-justified
6. **UI/Backend Contract Mismatch**: When adding a new entity type to the UI, always check whether the backend endpoint accepts a single value or an array. Match the UI control accordingly (single-select vs. multi-select) to avoid silently dropping user selections
7. **Missing Tests for New Entity Types**: When adding a new entity type (e.g., in `EntityUsage`, `UsageViewSelect`), always add corresponding tests in the existing test files and update any icon/component mocks
8. **Raw SQL in proxy DB code**: Do not use `execute_raw` or `query_raw` for proxy database access. Use Prisma model methods (e.g. `prisma_client.db.litellm_tooltable.upsert()`, `.find_many()`, `.find_unique()`) so behavior stays consistent with the schema, the client stays mockable in tests, and you avoid the pitfalls of hand-written SQL (parameter ordering, type casting, schema drift)
8. **Do not hardcode model-specific flags**: Put model-specific capability flags in `model_prices_and_context_window.json` and read them via `get_model_info` (or existing helpers like `supports_reasoning`). This prevents users from needing to upgrade LiteLLM each time a new model supports a feature.

See `CLAUDE.md` and the `Makefile` for standard commands. Key notes:
- `psycopg-binary` must be installed (`poetry run pip install psycopg-binary`) because the pytest-postgresql plugin requires it and the lock file only includes `psycopg` (no binary).
- `openapi-core` must be installed (`poetry run pip install openapi-core`) for the OpenAPI compliance tests in `tests/test_litellm/interactions/`.
- The `--timeout` pytest flag is NOT available; don't pass it.
- Unit tests: `poetry run pytest tests/test_litellm/ -x -vv -n 4`

Ruff is the primary fast linter. For the full lint suite (including mypy, black, circular imports), run `make lint` per `CLAUDE.md`.
### UI Dashboard development
- The UI is at `ui/litellm-dashboard/`. Run `npm run dev` from that directory for the Next.js dev server on port 3000.
- The proxy at port 4000 serves a **pre-built** static UI from `litellm/proxy/_experimental/out/`. After making UI code changes, you must run `npm run build` in the dashboard directory and copy the output: `cp -r ui/litellm-dashboard/out/* litellm/proxy/_experimental/out/` for the proxy to serve the updated UI.
- SVGs used as provider logos (loaded via `<img>` tags) must NOT use `fill="currentColor"` — replace with an explicit color like `#000000` or use the `-color` variant from lobehub icons, since CSS color inheritance does not work inside `<img>` elements.
- Provider logos live in `ui/litellm-dashboard/public/assets/logos/` (source) and `litellm/proxy/_experimental/out/assets/logos/` (pre-built). Both locations must have the file for it to work in dev and proxy-served modes.

@ -91,6 +91,10 @@ LiteLLM is a unified interface for 100+ LLM providers with two main components:
- Async/await patterns throughout
- Type hints required for all public APIs
- **Avoid imports within methods** — place all imports at the top of the file (module-level). Inline imports inside functions/methods make dependencies harder to trace and hurt readability. The only exception is avoiding circular imports where absolutely necessary.
- **Use dict spread for immutable copies** — prefer `{**original, "key": new_value}` over `dict(obj)` + mutation. The spread produces the final dict in one step and makes intent clear.
- **Guard at resolution time** — when resolving an optional value through a fallback chain (`a or b or ""`), raise immediately if the resolved result being empty is an error. Don't pass empty strings or sentinel values downstream for the callee to deal with.
- **Extract complex comprehensions to named helpers** — a set/dict comprehension that calls into the DB or manager (e.g. "which of these server IDs are OAuth2?") belongs in a named helper function, not inline in the caller.
- **FastAPI parameter declarations** — mark required query/form params with `= Query(...)` / `= Form(...)` explicitly when other params in the same handler are optional. Mixing `str` (required) with `Optional[str] = None` in the same signature causes silent 422s when the required param is missing.
### Testing Strategy
- Unit tests in `tests/test_litellm/`
@ -98,15 +102,44 @@ LiteLLM is a unified interface for 100+ LLM providers with two main components:
- Proxy tests in `tests/proxy_unit_tests/`
- Load tests in `tests/load_tests/`
- **Always add tests when adding new entity types or features** — if the existing test file covers other entity types, add corresponding tests for the new one
- **Keep monkeypatch stubs in sync with real signatures** — when a function gains a new optional parameter, update every `fake_*` / `stub_*` in tests that patch it to also accept that kwarg (even as `**kwargs`). Stale stubs fail with `unexpected keyword argument` and mask real bugs.
- **Test all branches of name→ID resolution** — when adding server/resource lookup that resolves names to UUIDs, test: (1) name resolves and UUID is allowed, (2) name resolves but UUID is not allowed, (3) name does not resolve at all. The silent-fallback path is where access-control bugs hide.
### UI / Backend Consistency
- When wiring a new UI entity type to an existing backend endpoint, verify the backend API contract (single value vs. array, required vs. optional params) and ensure the UI controls match — e.g., use a single-select dropdown when the backend accepts a single value, not a multi-select
### MCP OAuth / OpenAPI Transport Mapping
- `TRANSPORT.OPENAPI` is a UI-only concept. The backend only accepts `"http"`, `"sse"`, or `"stdio"`. Always map it to `"http"` before any API call (including pre-OAuth temp-session calls).
- FastAPI validation errors return `detail` as an array of `{loc, msg, type}` objects. Error extractors must handle: array (map `.msg`), string, nested `{error: string}`, and fallback.
- When an MCP server already has `authorization_url` stored, skip OAuth discovery (`_discovery_metadata`) — the server URL for OpenAPI MCPs is the spec file, not the API base, and fetching it causes timeouts.
- `client_id` should be optional in the `/authorize` endpoint — if the server has a stored `client_id` in credentials, use that. Never require callers to re-supply it.
### MCP Credential Storage
- OAuth credentials and BYOK credentials share the `litellm_mcpusercredentials` table, distinguished by a `"type"` field in the JSON payload (`"oauth2"` vs plain string).
- When deleting OAuth credentials, check type before deleting to avoid accidentally deleting a BYOK credential for the same `(user_id, server_id)` pair.
- Always pass the raw `expires_at` timestamp to the client — never set it to `None` for expired credentials. Let the frontend compute the "Expired" display state from the timestamp.
- Use `RecordNotFoundError` (not bare `except Exception`) when catching "already deleted" in credential delete endpoints.
### Browser Storage Safety (UI)
- Never write LiteLLM access tokens or API keys to `localStorage` — use `sessionStorage` only. `localStorage` survives browser close and is readable by any injected script (XSS).
- Shared utility functions (e.g. `extractErrorMessage`) belong in `src/utils/` — never define them inline in hooks or duplicate them across files.
### Database Migrations
- Prisma handles schema migrations
- Migration files auto-generated with `prisma migrate dev`
- Always test migrations against both PostgreSQL and SQLite
### Proxy database access
- **Do not write raw SQL** for proxy DB operations. Use Prisma model methods instead of `execute_raw` / `query_raw`.
- Use the generated client: `prisma_client.db.<model>` (e.g. `litellm_tooltable`, `litellm_usertable`) with `.upsert()`, `.find_many()`, `.find_unique()`, `.update()`, `.update_many()` as appropriate. This avoids schema/client drift, keeps code testable with simple mocks, and matches patterns used in spend logs and other proxy code.
- **No N+1 queries.** Never query the DB inside a loop. Batch-fetch with `{"in": ids}` and distribute in-memory.
- **Batch writes.** Use `create_many`/`update_many`/`delete_many` instead of individual calls (these return counts only; `update_many`/`delete_many` no-op silently on missing rows). When multiple separate writes target the same table (e.g. in `batch_()`), order by primary key to avoid deadlocks.
- **Push work to the DB.** Filter, sort, group, and aggregate in SQL, not Python. Verify Prisma generates the expected SQL — e.g. prefer `group_by` over `find_many(distinct=...)` which does client-side processing.
- **Bound large result sets.** Prisma materializes full results in memory. For results over ~10 MB, paginate with `take`/`skip` or `cursor`/`take`, always with an explicit `order`. Prefer cursor-based pagination (`skip` is O(n)). Don't paginate naturally small result sets.
- **Limit fetched columns on wide tables.** Use `select` to fetch only needed fields — returns a partial object, so downstream code must not access unselected fields.
- **Check index coverage.** For new or modified queries, check `schema.prisma` for a supporting index. Prefer extending an existing index (e.g. `@@index([a])` → `@@index([a, b])`) over adding a new one, unless it's a `@@unique`. Only add indexes for large/frequent queries.
- **Keep schema files in sync.** Apply schema changes to all `schema.prisma` copies (`schema.prisma`, `litellm/proxy/`, `litellm-proxy-extras/`, `litellm-js/spend-logs/` for SpendLogs) with a migration under `litellm-proxy-extras/litellm_proxy_extras/migrations/`.
### Enterprise Features
- Enterprise-specific code in `enterprise/` directory
- Optional features enabled via environment variables
@ -114,3 +147,13 @@ LiteLLM is a unified interface for 100+ LLM providers with two main components:
### HTTP Client Cache Safety
- **Never close HTTP/SDK clients on cache eviction.** `LLMClientCache._remove_key()` must not call `close()`/`aclose()` on evicted clients — they may still be used by in-flight requests. Doing so causes `RuntimeError: Cannot send a request, as the client has been closed.` after the 1-hour TTL expires. Cleanup happens at shutdown via `close_litellm_async_clients()`.
### Troubleshooting: DB schema out of sync after proxy restart
`litellm-proxy-extras` runs `prisma migrate deploy` on startup using **its own** bundled migration files, which may lag behind schema changes in the current worktree. Symptoms: `Unknown column`, `Invalid prisma invocation`, or missing data on new fields.
**Diagnose:** Run `\d "TableName"` in psql and compare against `schema.prisma` — missing columns confirm the issue.
**Fix options:**
1. **Create a Prisma migration** (permanent) — run `prisma migrate dev --name <description>` in the worktree. The generated file will be picked up by `prisma migrate deploy` on next startup.
2. **Apply manually for local dev** — `psql -d litellm -c "ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS ..."` after each proxy start. Fine for dev, not for production.
3. **Update litellm-proxy-extras** — if the package is installed from PyPI, its migration directory must include the new file. Either update the package or run the migration manually until the next release ships it.

# Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Preview Day 0 Support
LiteLLM now supports `gemini-3.1-flash-lite-preview` with full day 0 support!
:::note
If you only want cost tracking, you need no change in your current Litellm version. But if you want the support for new features introduced along with it like thinking levels, you will need to use v1.80.8-stable.1 or above.
:::
## Deploy this version

**Date:** February 27, 2026
**Duration:** ~6 days (Feb 21 merge -> Feb 27 fix)
**Severity:** High
**Status:** Resolved
> **Note:** This fix is available starting from LiteLLM `v1.81.14.rc.2` or higher.
## Summary
A change to improve Redis connection pool cleanup introduced a regression that closed **httpx clients** that were still actively being used by the proxy. The `LLMClientCache` (an in-memory TTL cache) stores both Redis clients *and* httpx clients under the same eviction policy. When a cache entry expired or was evicted, the new cleanup code called `aclose()`/`close()` on the evicted value which worked correctly for Redis clients, but destroyed httpx clients that other parts of the system still held references to and were actively using for LLM API calls.
**Impact:** Any proxy instance that hit the cache TTL (default 10 minutes) or capacity limit (200 entries) would have its httpx clients closed out from under it, causing requests to LLM providers to fail with connection errors.
---
## Background
`LLMClientCache` extends `InMemoryCache` and is used to cache SDK clients (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) to avoid re-creating them on every request. These clients are keyed by configuration + event loop ID. The cache has:
- **Max size:** 200 entries
- **Default TTL:** 10 minutes
When the cache is full or entries expire, `InMemoryCache.evict_cache()` calls `_remove_key()` to drop entries.
The cached values are a mix of:
- **Redis/async Redis clients** — owned exclusively by the cache, safe to close on eviction
- **httpx-backed SDK clients** (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) — shared references, still in use by router/model instances
---
## Root Cause
[PR #21717](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/pull/21717) overrode `_remove_key()` in `LLMClientCache` to close async clients on eviction:
<details>
<summary>Problematic code added in PR #21717</summary>
```python
class LLMClientCache(InMemoryCache):
def _remove_key(self, key: str) -> None:
value = self.cache_dict.get(key)
super()._remove_key(key)
if value is not None:
close_fn = getattr(value, "aclose", None) or getattr(value, "close", None)
if close_fn and asyncio.iscoroutinefunction(close_fn):
try:
asyncio.get_running_loop().create_task(close_fn())
except RuntimeError:
pass
elif close_fn and callable(close_fn):
try:
close_fn()
except Exception:
pass
```
</details>
The intent was correct for Redis clients — prevent connection pool leaks when cached Redis clients expire. But `LLMClientCache` also stores httpx-backed SDK clients (e.g., `AsyncOpenAI`, `AsyncAnthropic`). These clients:
1. Have an `aclose()` method (inherited from httpx)
2. Are still held by references elsewhere in the codebase (router, model instances)
3. Were being closed without any check on whether they were still in use
So when the cache evicted an entry, it would call `aclose()` on an httpx client that was still being used for active LLM requests → closed transport → connection errors.
---
## The Fix
[PR #22247](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/pull/22247) removed the `_remove_key` override entirely:
<details>
<summary>The fix (PR #22247)</summary>
```diff
class LLMClientCache(InMemoryCache):
- def _remove_key(self, key: str) -> None:
- """Close async clients before evicting them to prevent connection pool leaks."""
- value = self.cache_dict.get(key)
- super()._remove_key(key)
- if value is not None:
- close_fn = getattr(value, "aclose", None) or getattr(
- value, "close", None
- )
- ...
-
def update_cache_key_with_event_loop(self, key):
```
</details>
The eviction now simply drops the reference and lets Python's GC handle cleanup, which is safe because:
- httpx clients that are still referenced elsewhere stay alive
- Unreferenced clients get cleaned up by GC naturally
The other improvements from PR #21717 were kept:
- **`max_connections` respected for URL-based Redis configs**, previously silently dropped
- **`disconnect()` now closes both sync and async Redis clients**, sync client was previously leaked
- **Connection pool passthrough**, when a pool is provided with a URL config, it's used directly instead of creating a duplicate
---
## Remediation
| Action | Status | Code |
|--------|--------|------|
| Remove `_remove_key` override that closes shared clients on eviction | ✅ Done | [PR #22247](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/pull/22247) |
| Add e2e test: evicted client still usable (capacity) | ✅ Done | [PR #22313](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/pull/22313) |
| Add e2e test: expired client still usable (TTL) | ✅ Done | [PR #22313](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/pull/22313) |
The e2e tests go through `get_async_httpx_client()` the same code path the proxy uses in production and assert the client is still functional after eviction. These run in CI on every PR against `main`. If anyone modifies `LLMClientCache` eviction behavior, overrides `_remove_key`, or adds any form of client cleanup on eviction, these tests will fail regardless of the implementation approach.

import WebRTCTester from '@site/src/components/WebRTCTester';
Connect to the Realtime API via WebRTC from browser/mobile clients. LiteLLM handles auth and key management.
## How it works
![WebRTC flow: Browser, LiteLLM Proxy, and OpenAI/Azure](../../img/webrtc_flow.png)
**Flow of generating ephemeral token**
![Ephemeral token flow: Browser requests token, LiteLLM gets real token from OpenAI, returns encrypted token](../../img/ephemeral_token.png)
## Proxy Setup
```yaml
model_list:
- model_name: gpt-4o-realtime
litellm_params:
model: openai/gpt-4o-realtime-preview-2024-12-17
api_key: os.environ/OPENAI_API_KEY
model_info:
mode: realtime
```
**Azure:** use `model: azure/gpt-4o-realtime-preview`, `api_key`, `api_base`.
```bash
litellm --config /path/to/config.yaml
```
## Try it live
<WebRTCTester />
## Client Usage
**1. Get token** - `POST /v1/realtime/client_secrets` with LiteLLM API key and `{ model }`.
**2. WebRTC handshake** - Create `RTCPeerConnection`, add mic track, create data channel `oai-events`, send SDP offer to `POST /v1/realtime/calls` with `Authorization: Bearer <encrypted_token>` and `Content-Type: application/sdp`.
**3. Events** - Use the data channel for `session.update` and other events.
<details>
<summary>Full code example</summary>
```javascript
// 1. Token
const r = await fetch("http://proxy:4000/v1/realtime/client_secrets", {
method: "POST",
headers: { "Authorization": "Bearer sk-litellm-key", "Content-Type": "application/json" },
body: JSON.stringify({ model: "gpt-4o-realtime" }),
});
const { client_secret } = await r.json();
const token = client_secret.value;
// 2. WebRTC
const pc = new RTCPeerConnection();
const audio = document.createElement("audio");
audio.autoplay = true;
pc.ontrack = (e) => (audio.srcObject = e.streams[0]);
const ms = await navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ audio: true });
pc.addTrack(ms.getTracks()[0]);
const dc = pc.createDataChannel("oai-events");
const offer = await pc.createOffer();
await pc.setLocalDescription(offer);
const sdpRes = await fetch("http://proxy:4000/v1/realtime/calls", {
method: "POST",
headers: { "Authorization": `Bearer ${token}`, "Content-Type": "application/sdp" },
body: offer.sdp,
});
await pc.setRemoteDescription({ type: "answer", sdp: await sdpRes.text() });
// 3. Events
dc.send(JSON.stringify({ type: "session.update", session: { instructions: "..." } }));
```
</details>
## FAQ
**Q: What do I do if I get a 401 Token expired error?**
A: Tokens are short-lived. Get a fresh token right before creating the WebRTC offer.
**Q: Which key should I use for `/v1/realtime/calls`?**
A: Use the **encrypted token** from `client_secrets`, not your raw API key.
**Q: Should I pass the `model` parameter when making the call?**
A: No, the encrypted token already encodes all routing information including model.
**Q: How do I resolve Azure `api-version` errors?**
A: Set the correct `api_version` in `litellm_params` (or via the `AZURE_API_VERSION` environment variable), along with the right `api_base` and deployment values.
**Q: What if I get no audio?**
A: Make sure you grant microphone permission, ensure `pc.ontrack` assigns the audio element with `autoplay` enabled, check your network/firewall for WebRTC traffic, and inspect the browser console for ICE or SDP errors.

**Date:** Feb 24, 2026
**Duration:** Ongoing (until fix deployed)
**Severity:** High (for users load balancing Responses API across different API keys)
**Status:** Resolved
## Summary
When load balancing OpenAI's Responses API across deployments with **different API keys** (e.g., different Azure regions or OpenAI organizations), follow-up requests containing encrypted content items (like `rs_...` reasoning items) would fail with:
```json
{
"error": {
"message": "The encrypted content for item rs_0d09d6e56879e76500699d6feee41c8197bd268aae76141f87 could not be verified. Reason: Encrypted content organization_id did not match the target organization.",
"type": "invalid_request_error",
"code": "invalid_encrypted_content"
}
}
```
Encrypted content items are cryptographically tied to the API key's organization that created them. When the router load balanced a follow-up request to a deployment with a different API key, decryption failed.
- **Responses API calls with encrypted content:** Complete failure when routed to wrong deployment
- **Initial requests:** Unaffected — only follow-up requests containing encrypted items failed
- **Other API endpoints:** No impact — chat completions, embeddings, etc. functioned normally
{/* truncate */}
---
## Background
OpenAI's Responses API can return encrypted "reasoning items" (with IDs like `rs_...`) that contain intermediate reasoning steps. These items are encrypted with the organization's key and can only be decrypted by the same organization's API key.
When load balancing across deployments with different API keys, the existing affinity mechanisms were insufficient:
- **`responses_api_deployment_check`**: Requires `previous_response_id` which some clients (like Codex) don't provide
- **`deployment_affinity`**: Too broad — pins *all* requests from a user to one deployment, reducing effective quota by the number of users
- **`session_affinity`**: Requires explicit session IDs and still reduces quota

## Root Cause
LiteLLM's router had no mechanism to track which deployment created specific encrypted content items and route follow-up requests accordingly. The router treated all deployments as interchangeable, leading to decryption failures when encrypted content crossed organizational boundaries.
**The Problem Flow:**
1. User calls `router.aresponses()` with model `gpt-5.1-codex`
2. Router load balances to Deployment A (Azure East US, API Key 1)
3. Response contains encrypted reasoning item `rs_abc123` (encrypted with Org 1's key)
4. User makes follow-up request with `rs_abc123` in the input
5. Router load balances to Deployment B (Azure West Europe, API Key 2)
6. Deployment B tries to decrypt `rs_abc123` with Org 2's key → **fails**
**Why Existing Solutions Didn't Work:**
- **`previous_response_id`**: Not provided by all clients (e.g., Codex)
- **`deployment_affinity`**: Pins *all* user requests to one deployment → reduces quota to 1/N where N = number of deployments
- **`session_affinity`**: Requires explicit session management and still reduces quota
**Timeline:**
1. Users configured multi-region Responses API load balancing with different API keys
2. Initial requests succeeded, but follow-up requests with encrypted content failed intermittently
3. Error rate correlated with number of deployments (more deployments = higher chance of routing to wrong one)
4. Investigation revealed encrypted content was organization-bound
5. Existing affinity mechanisms deemed unsuitable (quota reduction, missing `previous_response_id`)
6. New solution designed and implemented: `encrypted_content_affinity`
---
## The Fix
Implemented a new `encrypted_content_affinity` pre-call check that intelligently tracks encrypted content and routes follow-up requests **only when necessary**.
### Implementation
**1. Encoding `model_id` into output items** ([`responses/utils.py`](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/blob/main/litellm/litellm/responses/utils.py))
The same approach used for `previous_response_id` affinity — no cache needed. When a response contains output items with `encrypted_content`, LiteLLM encodes the originating deployment's `model_id` in **two places** for redundancy:
1. **Into the item ID** (if present): `rs_abc123` → `encitem_{base64("litellm:model_id:{model_id};item_id:rs_abc123")}`
2. **Into the encrypted_content itself**: Wraps the content with `litellm_enc:{base64("model_id:{model_id}")};{original_encrypted_content}`
```python
# Encoding item IDs (when present)
def _build_encrypted_item_id(model_id: str, item_id: str) -> str:
assembled = f"litellm:model_id:{model_id};item_id:{item_id}"
encoded = base64.b64encode(assembled.encode("utf-8")).decode("utf-8")
return f"encitem_{encoded}"
# Wrapping encrypted_content (always, for redundancy)
def _wrap_encrypted_content_with_model_id(encrypted_content: str, model_id: str) -> str:
metadata = f"model_id:{model_id}"
encoded_metadata = base64.b64encode(metadata.encode("utf-8")).decode("utf-8")
return f"litellm_enc:{encoded_metadata};{encrypted_content}"
```
**Why wrap encrypted_content directly?** Some clients (like Codex) don't consistently send item IDs in follow-up requests, but they always send the `encrypted_content` itself. By embedding `model_id` into the content, affinity works even when IDs are missing.
**Streaming responses:** The wrapping logic is applied to both:
- Final response objects (non-streaming)
- Individual streaming events (`response.output_item.added`, `response.output_item.done`)
This ensures clients receiving streaming responses get wrapped content they can send back.
Before forwarding to the upstream provider, LiteLLM restores the original item IDs and unwraps encrypted_content so the provider never sees the encoded form:
```python
# In responses/main.py — before calling the handler
input = ResponsesAPIRequestUtils._restore_encrypted_content_item_ids_in_input(input)
```
**2. `EncryptedContentAffinityCheck` — routing only** ([`encrypted_content_affinity_check.py`](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/blob/main/litellm/litellm/router_utils/pre_call_checks/encrypted_content_affinity_check.py))
No `async_log_success_event` or cache lookups — the `model_id` is decoded directly from the item ID or encrypted_content:
```python
class EncryptedContentAffinityCheck(CustomLogger):
async def async_filter_deployments(self, model, healthy_deployments, ...):
"""Extract model_id from input items (ID or encrypted_content) and pin to that deployment."""
for item in request_kwargs.get("input", []):
# Try to extract model_id from two sources:
model_id = self._extract_model_id_from_input(item)
if model_id:
deployment = self._find_deployment_by_model_id(
healthy_deployments, model_id
)
if deployment:
request_kwargs["_encrypted_content_affinity_pinned"] = True
return [deployment]
return healthy_deployments
def _extract_model_id_from_input(self, item: dict) -> Optional[str]:
"""Extract model_id from either encoded ID or wrapped encrypted_content."""
# 1. Try decoding from item ID (if present)
item_id = item.get("id", "")
if item_id:
decoded = ResponsesAPIRequestUtils._decode_encrypted_item_id(item_id)
if decoded:
return decoded["model_id"]
# 2. Try unwrapping from encrypted_content (fallback for clients that omit IDs)
encrypted_content = item.get("encrypted_content", "")
if encrypted_content and encrypted_content.startswith("litellm_enc:"):
model_id, _ = ResponsesAPIRequestUtils._unwrap_encrypted_content_with_model_id(
encrypted_content
)
return model_id
return None
```
**3. Rate Limit Bypass** ([`router.py`](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/blob/main/litellm/litellm/router.py))
When encrypted content requires a specific deployment, RPM/TPM limits are bypassed (the request would fail on any other deployment anyway):
```python
# In async_get_available_deployment, after filtering healthy deployments:
if (
request_kwargs.get("_encrypted_content_affinity_pinned")
and len(healthy_deployments) == 1
):
return healthy_deployments[0] # Bypass routing strategy (RPM/TPM checks)
```
**3. Configuration**
```yaml
router_settings:
routing_strategy: usage-based-routing-v2
enable_pre_call_checks: true
optional_pre_call_checks:
- encrypted_content_affinity
deployment_affinity_ttl_seconds: 86400 # 24 hours
```
### Key Benefits
✅ **No quota reduction**: Only pins requests containing encrypted items
✅ **Bypasses rate limits**: When encrypted content requires a specific deployment, RPM/TPM limits don't block it
✅ **No `previous_response_id` required**: Works by encoding `model_id` directly into the item ID
✅ **No cache required**: `model_id` is decoded on-the-fly from the item ID — no Redis, no TTL
✅ **Globally safe**: Can be enabled for all models; non-Responses-API calls are unaffected
✅ **Surgical precision**: Normal requests continue to load balance freely

---
## Follow-up Fix: Streaming Responses (Mar 3, 2026)
### The Issue
After the initial fix was deployed, users reported that the `invalid_encrypted_content` error **still occurred** when using streaming responses with clients like Codex. Investigation revealed:
- ✅ Non-streaming responses: `encrypted_content` was correctly wrapped with `litellm_enc:` prefix
- ❌ Streaming responses: Individual `response.output_item.added` and `response.output_item.done` events contained **raw, unwrapped** `encrypted_content`
Since Codex and other clients consume responses as streams, they received unwrapped content in these events and sent it back in follow-up requests, causing the affinity check to fail.
### The Root Cause
The `_update_encrypted_content_item_ids_in_response` function only modified the **final** response object, which is used for non-streaming responses. For streaming responses, individual chunks are processed by `ResponsesAPIStreamingIterator._process_chunk`, which was **not** applying the wrapping logic to streaming events.
### The Fix
Modified `litellm/litellm/responses/streaming_iterator.py` to wrap `encrypted_content` in streaming events:
```python
# In ResponsesAPIStreamingIterator._process_chunk
if (
self.litellm_metadata
and self.litellm_metadata.get("encrypted_content_affinity_enabled")
):
event_type = getattr(openai_responses_api_chunk, "type", None)
if event_type in (
ResponsesAPIStreamEvents.OUTPUT_ITEM_ADDED,
ResponsesAPIStreamEvents.OUTPUT_ITEM_DONE,
):
item = getattr(openai_responses_api_chunk, "item", None)
if item:
encrypted_content = getattr(item, "encrypted_content", None)
if encrypted_content and isinstance(encrypted_content, str):
model_id = (
self.litellm_metadata.get("model_info", {}).get("id")
if self.litellm_metadata
else None
)
if model_id:
wrapped_content = ResponsesAPIRequestUtils._wrap_encrypted_content_with_model_id(
encrypted_content, model_id
)
setattr(item, "encrypted_content", wrapped_content)
```
This ensures that **all** `encrypted_content` sent to clients (streaming or non-streaming) is wrapped with `model_id` metadata, enabling consistent affinity routing.
---
## Migration Guide
### Before (Using `deployment_affinity`)
```yaml
router_settings:
optional_pre_call_checks:
- deployment_affinity # ❌ Reduces quota by number of users
```
**Problem:** All requests from a user pin to one deployment, reducing effective quota to 1/N.
### After (Using `encrypted_content_affinity`)
```yaml
router_settings:
optional_pre_call_checks:
- encrypted_content_affinity # ✅ Only pins requests with encrypted content
```
**Benefit:** Normal requests load balance freely, only encrypted content requests pin when necessary.

# A2A Agent Authentication Headers
Forward authentication credentials (Bearer tokens, API keys, etc.) from clients to backend A2A agents.
## Overview
When LiteLLM proxies a request to a backend A2A agent, the agent may require its own authentication headers. There are three ways to supply them:
| Method | Who configures | How it works |
|---|---|---|
| **Static headers** | Admin (UI / API) | Always sent, regardless of client request |
| **Forward client headers** | Admin (UI / API) | Header names to extract from client request and forward |
| **Convention-based** | Client (no admin config) | Client sends `x-a2a-{agent_name}-{header}` — automatically routed |
All three methods can be combined. **Static headers always win** on key conflicts.
---
## Method 1 — Static Headers
Admin-configured headers that are always sent to the backend agent. Use this for server-to-server tokens or internal credentials that clients should never see or override.
<Tabs>
<TabItem value="ui" label="UI">
1. Go to **Agents** in the LiteLLM dashboard.
2. Create or edit an agent.
3. Open the **Authentication Headers** panel.
4. Under **Static Headers**, click **Add Static Header** and fill in the header name and value.
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="api" label="REST API">
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/v1/agents \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-admin" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"agent_name": "my-agent",
"agent_card_params": { ... },
"static_headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer internal-server-token",
"X-Internal-Service": "litellm-proxy"
}
}'
```
To update an existing agent:
```bash
curl -X PATCH http://localhost:4000/v1/agents/{agent_id} \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-admin" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"static_headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer new-token"
}
}'
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
**Client call — no special headers needed:**
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/a2a/my-agent \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-client-key" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": "1", "method": "message/send",
"params": { "message": { "role": "user", "parts": [{"kind": "text", "text": "Hello"}], "messageId": "msg-1" } }
}'
```
The backend agent receives `Authorization: Bearer internal-server-token` without the client ever knowing the value.
---
## Method 2 — Forward Client Headers
Admin specifies a list of header **names**. When the client sends a request that includes those headers, LiteLLM extracts their values and forwards them to the backend agent. The client controls the values; the admin controls which headers are eligible to be forwarded.
<Tabs>
<TabItem value="ui" label="UI">
1. Go to **Agents** in the LiteLLM dashboard.
2. Create or edit an agent.
3. Open the **Authentication Headers** panel.
4. Under **Forward Client Headers**, type header names and press **Enter** (e.g. `x-api-key`, `Authorization`).
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="api" label="REST API">
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/v1/agents \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-admin" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"agent_name": "my-agent",
"agent_card_params": { ... },
"extra_headers": ["x-api-key", "x-user-token"]
}'
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
**Client call — include the forwarded headers:**
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/a2a/my-agent \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-client-key" \
-H "x-api-key: user-secret-value" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ ... }'
```
The backend agent receives `x-api-key: user-secret-value`.
:::note
Header name matching is **case-insensitive**. If the client sends `X-API-Key` and `extra_headers` lists `x-api-key`, they match.
:::
---
## Method 3 — Convention-Based Forwarding
Clients can forward headers to a specific agent without any admin pre-configuration by using the naming convention:
```
x-a2a-{agent_name_or_id}-{header_name}: value
```
LiteLLM parses these headers automatically and routes them to the matching agent only.
**Examples:**
| Client header sent | Agent name/ID | Forwarded as |
|---|---|---|
| `x-a2a-my-agent-authorization: Bearer tok` | `my-agent` | `authorization: Bearer tok` |
| `x-a2a-my-agent-x-api-key: secret` | `my-agent` | `x-api-key: secret` |
| `x-a2a-abc123-authorization: Bearer tok` | agent ID `abc123` | `authorization: Bearer tok` |
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/a2a/my-agent \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-client-key" \
-H "x-a2a-my-agent-authorization: Bearer agent-specific-token" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ ... }'
```
The `x-a2a-other-agent-authorization` header sent in the same request is **not** forwarded to `my-agent` — it is silently ignored.
:::tip Matches both agent name and agent ID
Both the human-readable name (e.g. `my-agent`) and the UUID (e.g. `abc123-...`) are valid. Use whichever is convenient for the client.
:::
---
## Merge Precedence
When multiple methods supply the same header name, **static headers win**:
```
dynamic (forwarded/convention) → merged ← static (overlays, wins)
```
Example:
| Source | `Authorization` value |
|---|---|
| Client sends (via `extra_headers` or convention) | `Bearer client-token` |
| Admin-configured `static_headers` | `Bearer server-token` |
| **What the backend agent receives** | **`Bearer server-token`** |
This ensures admin-controlled credentials cannot be overridden by client requests.
---
## Combining All Three Methods
```bash
# Register agent with static + forwarded headers
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/v1/agents \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-admin" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"agent_name": "my-agent",
"agent_card_params": { ... },
"static_headers": {
"X-Internal-Token": "secret123"
},
"extra_headers": ["x-user-id"]
}'
# Client call using all three mechanisms
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/a2a/my-agent \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-client-key" \
-H "x-user-id: user-42" \
-H "x-a2a-my-agent-x-request-id: req-abc" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ ... }'
```
The backend agent receives:
```
X-Internal-Token: secret123 ← static header (always)
x-user-id: user-42 ← forwarded (in extra_headers)
x-request-id: req-abc ← convention-based (x-a2a-my-agent-*)
X-LiteLLM-Trace-Id: <uuid> ← LiteLLM internal
X-LiteLLM-Agent-Id: <agent-id> ← LiteLLM internal
```
---
## Header Isolation
Each agent invocation uses an isolated HTTP connection. Headers configured for agent A are **never** sent to agent B, even if both agents are running and receiving requests simultaneously.
---
## API Reference
### `POST /v1/agents` / `PATCH /v1/agents/{agent_id}`
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `static_headers` | `object` | `{"Header-Name": "value"}` — always forwarded |
| `extra_headers` | `string[]` | Header names to extract from client request and forward |
### Agent Response
Both fields are returned in `GET /v1/agents` and `GET /v1/agents/{agent_id}`:
```json
{
"agent_id": "...",
"agent_name": "my-agent",
"static_headers": { "X-Internal-Token": "secret123" },
"extra_headers": ["x-user-id"],
...
}
```
:::caution
`static_headers` values are stored in the database and returned by the API. Treat them as you would any credential — do not store sensitive long-lived tokens here if your API is publicly accessible. Consider using short-lived tokens or environment-injected secrets instead.

# Agent Iteration Budgets
Control runaway costs from agentic loops with per-session iteration and budget caps.
## Overview
When agents run agentic loops, they can make unbounded LLM calls, causing unexpected costs. LiteLLM provides two controls:
| Control | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| **Max Iterations** | Hard cap on the number of LLM calls per session |
| **Max Budget Per Session** | Dollar cap per session (identified by `x-litellm-trace-id`) |
Both controls require a `session_id` (sent via `x-litellm-trace-id` header or `metadata.session_id`) to track calls within a session.
## Trace-ID Enforcement
LiteLLM supports two independent trace-id flags, configured in `litellm_params` on the agent:
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `require_trace_id_on_calls_to_agent` | Requires callers invoking this agent to include `x-litellm-trace-id`. Use when the agent should only be called as a sub-agent with a trace context. Returns **400** if missing. |
| `require_trace_id_on_calls_by_agent` | Requires all LLM/MCP calls made **by** this agent (via its virtual key) to include `x-litellm-trace-id`. This is what enables `max_iterations` and `max_budget_per_session` tracking. Returns **400** if missing. |
## Configuring via UI
When creating an agent in the LiteLLM Admin UI:
1. Navigate to the **Agents** tab and click **Add Agent**
2. In the **Agent Settings** step, expand the **Tracing** section
3. Toggle **Require x-litellm-trace-id on calls BY this agent** to enable session tracking
4. Set **Max Iterations** to cap the number of LLM calls per session
5. Set **Max Budget Per Session ($)** to cap spend per session
The trace-id flags are stored on the agent's `litellm_params`. Budget controls (`max_iterations`, `max_budget_per_session`) are stored in the virtual key's metadata.
## Configuring via API
Set trace-id enforcement on the agent itself:
```bash
curl -X POST 'http://localhost:4000/v1/agents' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"agent_name": "my-research-agent",
"agent_card_params": {
"name": "my-research-agent",
"description": "A research agent with budget controls",
"url": "http://my-agent:8080",
"version": "1.0.0"
},
"litellm_params": {
"require_trace_id_on_calls_to_agent": true,
"require_trace_id_on_calls_by_agent": true
}
}'
```
Budget controls are set on the agent's `litellm_params` (not on individual keys), so they apply across all keys for the agent:
```bash
curl -X POST 'http://localhost:4000/v1/agents' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"agent_name": "my-research-agent",
"agent_card_params": {
"name": "my-research-agent",
"description": "A research agent with budget controls",
"url": "http://my-agent:8080",
"version": "1.0.0"
},
"litellm_params": {
"require_trace_id_on_calls_by_agent": true,
"max_iterations": 25,
"max_budget_per_session": 5.00
}
}'
```
## How It Works
### Session Tracking
Callers identify their session by including a `session_id` in one of these ways:
- **Header**: `x-litellm-trace-id: my-session-123`
- **Metadata**: `{"metadata": {"session_id": "my-session-123"}}`
### Max Iterations
When `max_iterations` is set in agent `litellm_params`:
- Each LLM call for a session increments a counter
- When the counter exceeds `max_iterations`, the request receives a **429 Too Many Requests**
- Counters expire after 1 hour by default (configurable via `LITELLM_MAX_ITERATIONS_TTL` env var)
### Max Budget Per Session
When `max_budget_per_session` is set in agent `litellm_params`:
- After each successful LLM call, the response cost is accumulated for the session
- Before each call, the accumulated spend is checked against the budget
- When spend exceeds the budget, the request receives a **429 Too Many Requests**
- Session spend counters expire after 1 hour by default (configurable via `LITELLM_MAX_BUDGET_PER_SESSION_TTL` env var)
## Example
Create an agent with max 25 iterations and a $5 budget cap:
<Tabs>
<TabItem value="ui" label="Via UI">
1. Go to **Agents** → **Add Agent**
2. Configure your agent (name, model, etc.)
3. In **Agent Settings**, expand the **Tracing** section
4. Toggle on **Require x-litellm-trace-id on calls BY this agent**
5. Set **Max Iterations** to `25`
6. Set **Max Budget Per Session** to `5.00`
7. Proceed to create a new key for the agent
8. Click **Create Agent**
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="api" label="Via API">
```bash
# 1. Create the agent with trace-id enforcement
curl -X POST 'http://localhost:4000/v1/agents' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"agent_name": "my-research-agent",
"agent_card_params": {
"name": "my-research-agent",
"description": "A research agent with budget controls",
"url": "http://my-agent:8080",
"version": "1.0.0"
},
"litellm_params": {
"require_trace_id_on_calls_by_agent": true
}
}'
# 2. Create a key for the agent
curl -X POST 'http://localhost:4000/key/generate' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"agent_id": "<agent_id_from_step_1>",
"key_alias": "my-research-agent-key"
}'
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
### Making Calls with Session Tracking
```bash
curl -X POST 'http://localhost:4000/chat/completions' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer sk-agent-key-xxx' \
-H 'x-litellm-trace-id: session-abc-123' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"model": "gpt-4o",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
}'
```
After 25 calls or $5 spent within this session, subsequent requests will receive:
```json
{
"error": {
"message": "Session budget exceeded for session session-abc-123. Current spend: $5.0032, max_budget_per_session: $5.00.",
"type": "budget_exceeded",
"code": 429
}
}
```
## Environment Variables
| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `LITELLM_MAX_ITERATIONS_TTL` | `3600` (1 hour) | TTL in seconds for session iteration counters |
| `LITELLM_MAX_BUDGET_PER_SESSION_TTL` | `3600` (1 hour) | TTL in seconds for session budget counters |

### Static and dynamic headers
You can send two kinds of headers to your guardrail endpoint:
- **Static headers** (`headers`): A key/value map sent with **every** request to your guardrail. Use this for fixed values (e.g. API keys, `X-Service-Name`). Configure in `litellm_params`:
```yaml
litellm_params:
guardrail: generic_guardrail_api
api_base: https://your-guardrail-api.com
headers:
X-Service-Name: "my-app"
X-API-Key: "secret"
```
- **Dynamic headers** (`extra_headers`): A list of **header names** that are forwarded from the **client request** to your guardrail. Only headers in this list (plus a small default allowlist such as `x-litellm-*`) have their values sent; others are sent as `[present]`. Use this to pass through client-provided headers (e.g. `x-request-id`, `x-correlation-id`). Configure in `litellm_params`:
```yaml
litellm_params:
guardrail: generic_guardrail_api
api_base: https://your-guardrail-api.com
extra_headers:
- x-request-id
- x-correlation-id
- x-custom-auth
```
This mirrors the [MCP static and extra headers](/docs/mcp#forwarding-custom-headers-to-mcp-servers) behavior.
### Example: Pillar Security
[Pillar Security](https://pillar.security) uses the Generic Guardrail API to provide comprehensive AI security scanning including prompt injection protection, PII/PCI detection, secret detection, and content moderation.

# v1/messages → /responses Parameter Mapping
When you send a request to `/v1/messages` targeting an OpenAI or Azure model, LiteLLM internally routes it through the OpenAI Responses API. This page documents exactly how every parameter gets translated in both directions.
The transformation lives in `litellm/llms/anthropic/experimental_pass_through/responses_adapters/transformation.py`.
## Request: Anthropic → Responses API
### Top-level parameters
| Anthropic (`/v1/messages`) | Responses API | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `model` | `model` | Passed through as-is |
| `messages` | `input` | Structurally transformed — see the messages section below |
| `system` (string) | `instructions` | Passed as a plain string |
| `system` (list of content blocks) | `instructions` | Text blocks are joined with `\n`; non-text blocks are ignored |
| `max_tokens` | `max_output_tokens` | Renamed |
| `temperature` | `temperature` | Passed through as-is |
| `top_p` | `top_p` | Passed through as-is |
| `tools` | `tools` | Format-translated — see the tools section below |
| `tool_choice` | `tool_choice` | Type-remapped — see the tool_choice section below |
| `thinking` | `reasoning` | Budget tokens mapped to effort level — see the thinking section below |
| `output_format` or `output_config.format` | `text` | Wrapped as `{"format": {"type": "json_schema", "name": "structured_output", "schema": ..., "strict": true}}` |
| `context_management` | `context_management` | Converted from Anthropic dict to OpenAI array format — see the context_management section below |
| `metadata.user_id` | `user` | Extracted from the metadata object and truncated to 64 characters |
| `stop_sequences` | ❌ Not mapped | Dropped silently |
| `top_k` | ❌ Not mapped | Dropped silently |
| `speed` | ❌ Not mapped | Only used to set Anthropic beta headers on the native path |
### How messages get converted
Each Anthropic message is expanded into one or more Responses API input items. The key difference is that `tool_result` and `tool_use` blocks become **top-level items** in the input array rather than being nested inside a message.
| Anthropic message | Responses API input item |
|---|---|
| `user` role, string content | `{"type": "message", "role": "user", "content": [{"type": "input_text", "text": "..."}]}` |
| `user` role, `{"type": "text"}` block | `{"type": "input_text", "text": "..."}` inside a user message |
| `user` role, `{"type": "image", "source": {"type": "base64"}}` | `{"type": "input_image", "image_url": "data:<media_type>;base64,<data>"}` inside a user message |
| `user` role, `{"type": "image", "source": {"type": "url"}}` | `{"type": "input_image", "image_url": "<url>"}` inside a user message |
| `user` role, `{"type": "tool_result"}` block | Top-level `{"type": "function_call_output", "call_id": "...", "output": "..."}` — pulled out of the message entirely |
| `assistant` role, string content | `{"type": "message", "role": "assistant", "content": [{"type": "output_text", "text": "..."}]}` |
| `assistant` role, `{"type": "text"}` block | `{"type": "output_text", "text": "..."}` inside an assistant message |
| `assistant` role, `{"type": "tool_use"}` block | Top-level `{"type": "function_call", "call_id": "<id>", "name": "...", "arguments": "<JSON string>"}` — pulled out of the message entirely |
| `assistant` role, `{"type": "thinking"}` block | `{"type": "output_text", "text": "<thinking text>"}` inside an assistant message |
### tools
| Anthropic tool | Responses API tool |
|---|---|
| Any tool where `type` starts with `"web_search"` or `name == "web_search"` | `{"type": "web_search_preview"}` |
| All other tools | `{"type": "function", "name": "...", "description": "...", "parameters": <input_schema>}` |
### tool_choice
| Anthropic `tool_choice.type` | Responses API `tool_choice` |
|---|---|
| `"auto"` | `{"type": "auto"}` |
| `"any"` | `{"type": "required"}` |
| `"tool"` | `{"type": "function", "name": "<tool name>"}` |
### thinking → reasoning
The `budget_tokens` value is mapped to a string effort level. `summary` is always set to `"detailed"`.
| `thinking.budget_tokens` | `reasoning.effort` |
|---|---|
| >= 10000 | `"high"` |
| >= 5000 | `"medium"` |
| >= 2000 | `"low"` |
| < 2000 | `"minimal"` |
If `thinking.type` is anything other than `"enabled"`, the `reasoning` field is not sent at all.
### context_management
Anthropic uses a nested dict with an `edits` array. OpenAI uses a flat array of compaction objects.
```
Anthropic input:
{
"edits": [
{
"type": "compact_20260112",
"trigger": {"type": "input_tokens", "value": 150000}
}
]
}
Responses API output:
[
{"type": "compaction", "compact_threshold": 150000}
]
```
## Response: Responses API → Anthropic
When the Responses API reply comes back, LiteLLM converts it into an Anthropic `AnthropicMessagesResponse`.
| Responses API field | Anthropic response field | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `response.id` | `id` | |
| `response.model` | `model` | Falls back to `"unknown-model"` if missing |
| `ResponseReasoningItem` — `summary[*].text` | `content` block `{"type": "thinking", "thinking": "..."}` | Each non-empty summary text becomes a thinking block |
| `ResponseOutputMessage` — `content[*]` where `type == "output_text"` | `content` block `{"type": "text", "text": "..."}` | |
| `ResponseFunctionToolCall` — `{call_id, name, arguments}` | `content` block `{"type": "tool_use", "id": "...", "name": "...", "input": {...}}` | `arguments` is JSON-parsed back into a dict |
| Any `function_call` present in output | `stop_reason: "tool_use"` | |
| `response.status == "incomplete"` | `stop_reason: "max_tokens"` | Takes precedence over the default |
| Everything else | `stop_reason: "end_turn"` | Default |
| `response.usage.input_tokens` | `usage.input_tokens` | |
| `response.usage.output_tokens` | `usage.output_tokens` | |
| *(hardcoded)* | `type: "message"` | Always set |
| *(hardcoded)* | `role: "assistant"` | Always set |
| *(hardcoded)* | `stop_sequence: null` | Always null on this path |

```
## Native Finish Reason
LiteLLM maps all provider-specific `finish_reason` values to OpenAI-compatible values (`stop`, `length`, `tool_calls`, `function_call`, `content_filter`). When the original provider value differs from the mapped value, it is preserved in `provider_specific_fields["native_finish_reason"]`.
This is useful for agent loops that need to distinguish between different stop conditions (e.g., Gemini's `MALFORMED_FUNCTION_CALL` vs a normal `stop`).
```python
response = completion(model="gemini/gemini-2.0-flash", messages=messages)
choice = response.choices[0]
print(choice.finish_reason) # "stop" (OpenAI-compatible)
# Access the original provider value when it differs:
if hasattr(choice, "provider_specific_fields") and choice.provider_specific_fields:
native = choice.provider_specific_fields.get("native_finish_reason")
if native == "MALFORMED_FUNCTION_CALL":
# Handle malformed function call differently from a normal stop
pass
```
When the provider already returns an OpenAI-compatible value (e.g., `stop`), `native_finish_reason` is not set.
## Additional Attributes
You can also access information like latency.

- Provider-specific streaming logic
- Advanced tool calling modifications

# Token Counting
## Overview
LiteLLM provides exact token counting by calling provider-specific token counting APIs. This gives you accurate token counts before sending requests, helping with cost estimation and context window management.
| Feature | Details |
|---------|---------|
| SDK Method | `litellm.acount_tokens()` |
| Proxy Endpoints | `/v1/messages/count_tokens` (Anthropic format), `/v1/responses/input_tokens` (OpenAI format) |
| Fallback | Local tiktoken-based counting for unsupported providers |
## Supported Providers
| Provider | Token Counting API | Format |
|----------|-------------------|--------|
| OpenAI | [Responses API `/input_tokens`](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/responses/input-tokens) | OpenAI Responses |
| Anthropic | [Messages `/count_tokens`](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/build-with-claude/token-counting) | Anthropic Messages |
| Vertex AI (Claude) | Vertex AI Partner Models Token Counter | Anthropic Messages |
| Bedrock (Claude) | AWS Bedrock CountTokens API | Anthropic Messages |
| Gemini | Google AI Studio countTokens API | Anthropic Messages |
| Vertex AI (Gemini) | Vertex AI countTokens API | Anthropic Messages |
| Other providers | Local tiktoken fallback | N/A |
## SDK Usage
### Basic Usage
```python
import asyncio
import litellm
async def main():
# OpenAI
result = await litellm.acount_tokens(
model="openai/gpt-4o",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, how are you?"}],
)
print(f"Token count: {result.total_tokens}")
print(f"Tokenizer: {result.tokenizer_type}") # "openai_api"
# Anthropic
result = await litellm.acount_tokens(
model="anthropic/claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, how are you?"}],
)
print(f"Token count: {result.total_tokens}")
print(f"Tokenizer: {result.tokenizer_type}") # "anthropic_api"
asyncio.run(main())
```
### With Tools and System Message
```python
import asyncio
import litellm
async def main():
result = await litellm.acount_tokens(
model="openai/gpt-4o",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What's the weather in Paris?"}],
tools=[{
"type": "function",
"function": {
"name": "get_weather",
"description": "Get weather for a city",
"parameters": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {"city": {"type": "string"}},
},
},
}],
system="You are a helpful weather assistant.",
)
print(f"Token count (with tools): {result.total_tokens}")
asyncio.run(main())
```
### Response Format
`litellm.acount_tokens()` returns a `TokenCountResponse`:
```python
TokenCountResponse(
total_tokens=15, # Token count
request_model="openai/gpt-4o", # Model requested
model_used="gpt-4o", # Model used for counting
tokenizer_type="openai_api", # "openai_api", "anthropic_api", "local_tokenizer"
original_response={"input_tokens": 15}, # Raw API response
error=False, # True if counting failed
error_message=None, # Error details if failed
)
```
### Fallback Behavior
If a provider doesn't support a token counting API, or if the API key is missing, `acount_tokens()` automatically falls back to local tiktoken-based counting:
```python
# Unsupported provider → automatic fallback
result = await litellm.acount_tokens(
model="together_ai/meta-llama/Llama-3-8b-chat-hf",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
)
print(result.tokenizer_type) # "local_tokenizer"
```
## Proxy Usage

## Converting OpenAPI Specs to MCP Servers
LiteLLM can automatically convert OpenAPI specifications into MCP servers, allowing you to expose any REST API as MCP tools. This is useful when you have existing APIs with OpenAPI/Swagger documentation and want to make them available as MCP tools.
LiteLLM can convert OpenAPI specifications into MCP servers, exposing any REST API as MCP tools without writing custom server code.
**Benefits:**
- **Rapid Integration**: Convert existing APIs to MCP tools without writing custom MCP server code
- **Automatic Tool Generation**: LiteLLM automatically generates MCP tools from your OpenAPI spec
- **Unified Interface**: Use the same MCP interface for both native MCP servers and OpenAPI-based APIs
- **Easy Testing**: Test and iterate on API integrations quickly
**Configuration:**
Add your OpenAPI-based MCP server to your `config.yaml`:
```yaml title="config.yaml - OpenAPI to MCP" showLineNumbers
model_list:
- model_name: gpt-4o
litellm_params:
model: openai/gpt-4o
api_key: sk-xxxxxxx
mcp_servers:
# OpenAPI Spec Example - Petstore API
petstore_mcp:
url: "https://petstore.swagger.io/v2"
spec_path: "/path/to/openapi.json"
auth_type: "none"
# OpenAPI Spec with API Key Authentication
my_api_mcp:
url: "http://0.0.0.0:8090"
spec_path: "/path/to/openapi.json"
auth_type: "api_key"
auth_value: "your-api-key-here"
# OpenAPI Spec with Bearer Token
secured_api_mcp:
url: "https://api.example.com"
spec_path: "/path/to/openapi.json"
auth_type: "bearer_token"
auth_value: "your-bearer-token"
```
**Configuration Parameters:**
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------|-------------|
| `url` | Yes | The base URL of your API endpoint |
| `spec_path` | Yes | Path or URL to your OpenAPI specification file (JSON or YAML) |
| `auth_type` | No | Authentication type: `none`, `api_key`, `bearer_token`, `basic`, `authorization` |
| `auth_value` | No | Authentication value (required if `auth_type` is set) |
| `authorization_url` | No | For `auth_type: oauth2`. Optional override; if omitted LiteLLM auto-discovers it. |
| `token_url` | No | For `auth_type: oauth2`. Optional override; if omitted LiteLLM auto-discovers it. |
| `registration_url` | No | For `auth_type: oauth2`. Optional override; if omitted LiteLLM auto-discovers it. |
| `scopes` | No | For `auth_type: oauth2`. Optional override; if omitted LiteLLM uses the scopes advertised by the server. |
| `description` | No | Optional description for the MCP server |
| `allowed_tools` | No | List of specific tools to allow (see [MCP Tool Filtering](#mcp-tool-filtering)) |
| `disallowed_tools` | No | List of specific tools to block (see [MCP Tool Filtering](#mcp-tool-filtering)) |
### Usage Example
Once configured, you can use the OpenAPI-based MCP server just like any other MCP server:
<Tabs>
<TabItem value="fastmcp" label="Python FastMCP">
```python title="Using OpenAPI-based MCP Server" showLineNumbers
from fastmcp import Client

"headers": {
"x-litellm-api-key": "Bearer sk-1234"
}
}
}
}
# Create a client that connects to the server
client = Client(config)
async def main():
async with client:
# List available tools generated from OpenAPI spec
tools = await client.list_tools()
print(f"Available tools: {[tool.name for tool in tools]}")
# Example: Get a pet by ID (from Petstore API)
response = await client.call_tool(
name="getpetbyid",
arguments={"petId": "1"}
)
print(f"Response:\n{response}\n")
# Example: Find pets by status
response = await client.call_tool(

arguments={"status": "available"}
)
print(f"Response:\n{response}\n")

}
}
}
}
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="openai" label="OpenAI Responses API">

**How It Works**
1. **Spec Loading**: LiteLLM loads your OpenAPI specification from the provided `spec_path`
2. **Tool Generation**: Each API endpoint in the spec becomes an MCP tool
3. **Parameter Mapping**: OpenAPI parameters are automatically mapped to MCP tool parameters
4. **Request Handling**: When a tool is called, LiteLLM converts the MCP request to the appropriate HTTP request
5. **Response Translation**: API responses are converted back to MCP format
**OpenAPI Spec Requirements**
Your OpenAPI specification should follow standard OpenAPI/Swagger conventions:
- **Supported versions**: OpenAPI 3.0.x, OpenAPI 3.1.x, Swagger 2.0
- **Required fields**: `paths`, `info` sections should be properly defined
- **Operation IDs**: Each operation should have a unique `operationId` (this becomes the tool name)
- **Parameters**: Request parameters should be properly documented with types and descriptions
See the **[MCP from OpenAPI Specs guide](./mcp_openapi.md)** for full setup, usage examples, and how to override tool names and descriptions.

## Calling the Proxy's /v1/responses Endpoint
When calling your LiteLLM Proxy's `/v1/responses` endpoint to use MCP tools, **always use `server_url: "litellm_proxy"`** in the tools array. This tells the proxy to use its configured MCP servers.
:::important Do not use the full proxy URL
Using `server_url: "https://your-proxy.com/mcp"` is incorrect when the request is already going to the proxy. The proxy needs the literal value `litellm_proxy` to route to its configured MCP servers.
:::
```bash title="Correct: Using litellm_proxy" showLineNumbers
curl --location 'https://your-proxy.com/v1/responses' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header "Authorization: Bearer $LITELLM_API_KEY" \
--data '{
"model": "gpt-4",
"tools": [
{
"type": "mcp",
"server_label": "litellm",
"server_url": "litellm_proxy",
"require_approval": "never"
}
],
"input": "Run available tools",
"tool_choice": "required"
}'
```
### Sending Custom Headers to MCP Servers
To pass custom headers (e.g., API keys, auth tokens) to specific MCP servers, use either:
**Option 1: Request headers** – Add `x-mcp-{server_alias}-{header_name}` to your request headers. The proxy forwards these to the matching MCP server.
```bash
# Send Authorization header to the "weather2" MCP server
--header 'x-mcp-weather2-authorization: Bearer your-token'
# Send custom header to the "github" MCP server
--header 'x-mcp-github-x-api-key: your-api-key'
```
**Option 2: Headers in tool config** – Include a `headers` object in the tool definition. These are merged with request headers.
```json
{
"type": "mcp",
"server_label": "litellm",
"server_url": "litellm_proxy",
"require_approval": "never",
"headers": {
"x-litellm-api-key": "Bearer YOUR_LITELLM_API_KEY",
"x-mcp-servers": "Zapier_MCP,dev-group",
"x-mcp-weather2-authorization": "Bearer your-weather-api-token"
}
}
```
## Using your MCP with client side credentials
Use this if you want to pass a client side authentication token to LiteLLM to then pass to your MCP to auth to your MCP.

# MCP - AWS SigV4 Auth
Use AWS SigV4 authentication to connect LiteLLM to MCP servers hosted on [AWS Bedrock AgentCore](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/agentcore.html).
## Why SigV4?
AWS services authenticate requests using [Signature Version 4](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/signature-version-4.html) — a per-request signing protocol that includes the request body in the cryptographic signature. This is fundamentally different from static-header auth types (`api_key`, `bearer_token`, etc.) which send the same header on every request.
LiteLLM's `aws_sigv4` auth type handles this automatically: every outgoing MCP request is signed with your AWS credentials before it's sent.
## Quick Start
<Tabs>
<TabItem value="ui" label="LiteLLM UI">
1. Navigate to **MCP Servers** and click **Add New MCP Server**
2. Set the transport to **Streamable HTTP**
3. Select **AWS SigV4** as the authentication type
4. Fill in your AWS credentials:
<Image
img={require('../img/mcp_aws_sigv4_ui.png')}
style={{width: '80%', display: 'block', margin: '0'}}
/>
<br/>
| Field | Required | Description |
|-------|----------|-------------|
| **AWS Region** | Yes | AWS region for SigV4 signing (e.g., `us-east-1`) |
| **AWS Service Name** | No | Defaults to `bedrock-agentcore` |
| **AWS Access Key ID** | No | Falls back to boto3 credential chain if blank |
| **AWS Secret Access Key** | No | Required if Access Key ID is provided |
| **AWS Session Token** | No | Only needed for temporary STS credentials |
Once created, LiteLLM will sign every outgoing MCP request with SigV4. The server's tools appear automatically in the MCP Tools list.
**Editing credentials:** When editing an existing SigV4 server, leave credential fields blank to keep the current values. Only fields you fill in will be updated.
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="config" label="config.yaml">
### 1. Set AWS credentials
```bash
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="AKIA..."
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="..."
export AWS_REGION_NAME="us-east-1"
```
### 2. Add your AgentCore MCP server to config.yaml
```yaml title="config.yaml" showLineNumbers
model_list:
- model_name: gpt-4o
litellm_params:
model: openai/gpt-4o
api_key: os.environ/OPENAI_API_KEY
mcp_servers:
my_agentcore_mcp:
url: "https://bedrock-agentcore.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/runtimes/<url-encoded-ARN>/invocations"
transport: "http"
auth_type: "aws_sigv4"
aws_access_key_id: os.environ/AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
aws_secret_access_key: os.environ/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
aws_region_name: "us-east-1"
aws_service_name: "bedrock-agentcore"
```
:::info URL encoding
The AgentCore runtime ARN must be URL-encoded in the `url` field. For example:
```
arn:aws:bedrock-agentcore:us-east-1:123456789012:runtime/my-mcp-server
```
becomes:
```
arn%3Aaws%3Abedrock-agentcore%3Aus-east-1%3A123456789012%3Aruntime%2Fmy-mcp-server
```
:::
### 3. Start the proxy
```bash
litellm --config config.yaml
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
## Use the MCP tools
Once configured, your AgentCore MCP tools are available through LiteLLM like any other MCP server:
```bash title="List available tools"
curl http://localhost:4000/mcp-rest/tools/list \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-1234"
```
```bash title="Call a tool"
curl http://localhost:4000/mcp-rest/tools/call \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-1234" \
-d '{
"name": "my_agentcore_mcp_your_tool_name",
"arguments": {"key": "value"}
}'
```
## Config Reference
| Field | Required | Description |
|-------|----------|-------------|
| `url` | Yes | AgentCore MCP server URL (with URL-encoded ARN) |
| `transport` | Yes | Must be `"http"` |
| `auth_type` | Yes | Must be `"aws_sigv4"` |
| `aws_access_key_id` | No | AWS access key. Supports `os.environ/VAR_NAME`. Falls back to boto3 credential chain if omitted |
| `aws_secret_access_key` | No | AWS secret key. Supports `os.environ/VAR_NAME`. Falls back to boto3 credential chain if omitted |
| `aws_region_name` | Yes | AWS region (e.g., `us-east-1`) |
| `aws_service_name` | No | AWS service name for signing. Defaults to `bedrock-agentcore` |
| `aws_session_token` | No | AWS session token for temporary credentials. Supports `os.environ/VAR_NAME` |
## How It Works
LiteLLM uses an `httpx.Auth` subclass (`MCPSigV4Auth`) that hooks into the HTTP request lifecycle:
1. For every outgoing MCP request, the auth handler computes a SHA-256 hash of the request body
2. It creates a SigV4 signature using your AWS credentials, the request URL, headers, and body hash
3. The signed `Authorization` and `x-amz-date` headers are added to the request
4. AWS validates the signature and processes the MCP request
This happens transparently — no manual token management required.
## Using Temporary Credentials (STS)
If you use AWS STS temporary credentials (e.g., from IAM roles or SSO), include the session token:
```yaml title="config.yaml with STS credentials" showLineNumbers
mcp_servers:
my_agentcore_mcp:
url: "https://bedrock-agentcore.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/runtimes/<url-encoded-ARN>/invocations"
transport: "http"
auth_type: "aws_sigv4"
aws_access_key_id: os.environ/AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
aws_secret_access_key: os.environ/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
aws_session_token: os.environ/AWS_SESSION_TOKEN
aws_region_name: "us-east-1"
aws_service_name: "bedrock-agentcore"
```
## Troubleshooting
### 403 Forbidden from AWS
- Verify your AWS credentials are valid and not expired
- Check that `aws_region_name` matches the region in your AgentCore URL
- Ensure `aws_service_name` is set to `bedrock-agentcore`
- If using STS credentials, confirm `aws_session_token` is set and not expired
### Health check errors on startup
SigV4-authenticated MCP servers skip the standard health check on proxy startup. This is expected — the proxy will still sign requests correctly when tools are invoked.
### "botocore not found" error
Install the `botocore` package:
```bash
pip install botocore
```
`botocore` is used for SigV4 credential handling and is required when using `aws_sigv4` auth.

# MCP from OpenAPI Specs
LiteLLM can convert any OpenAPI/Swagger spec into an MCP server — no custom MCP server code required.
## Step 1 — Add the MCP Server
Add your OpenAPI-based server in `config.yaml`:
```yaml title="config.yaml" showLineNumbers
mcp_servers:
petstore_mcp:
url: "https://petstore.swagger.io/v2"
spec_path: "/path/to/openapi.json"
auth_type: "none"
my_api_mcp:
url: "http://0.0.0.0:8090"
spec_path: "/path/to/openapi.json"
auth_type: "api_key"
auth_value: "your-api-key-here"
secured_api_mcp:
url: "https://api.example.com"
spec_path: "/path/to/openapi.json"
auth_type: "bearer_token"
auth_value: "your-bearer-token"
```
Or from the UI: go to **MCP Servers → Add New MCP Server**, fill in the URL and spec path, and LiteLLM will fetch the spec and load all endpoints as tools.
**Configuration parameters:**
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------|-------------|
| `url` | Yes | Base URL of your API |
| `spec_path` | Yes | Path or URL to your OpenAPI spec (JSON or YAML) |
| `auth_type` | No | `none`, `api_key`, `bearer_token`, `basic`, `authorization`, `oauth2` |
| `auth_value` | No | Auth value (required if `auth_type` is set) |
| `description` | No | Optional description |
| `allowed_tools` | No | Allowlist of specific tools |
| `disallowed_tools` | No | Blocklist of specific tools |
**Supported spec versions:** OpenAPI 3.0.x, 3.1.x, Swagger 2.0. Each operation's `operationId` becomes the tool name — make sure they're unique.
Once tools are loaded, you'll see them in the Tool Configuration section:
<Image
img={require('../img/mcp_openapi_tools_loaded.png')}
style={{width: '80%', display: 'block', margin: '0'}}
/>
<br/>
## Step 2 — Optionally Override Tool Names and Descriptions
By default, tool names and descriptions come from the `operationId` and description fields in your spec. You can rename or rewrite them so MCP clients see something cleaner — without touching the upstream spec.
### From the UI
Each tool card has a pencil icon. Click it to open the inline editor:
<Image
img={require('../img/mcp_openapi_tool_edit_panel.png')}
style={{width: '80%', display: 'block', margin: '0'}}
/>
<br/>
- **Display Name** — overrides the name MCP clients see
- **Description** — overrides the description MCP clients see
- Leave a field blank to keep the original from the spec
After setting overrides, a purple **Custom name** badge appears on the tool card:
<Image
img={require('../img/mcp_openapi_custom_name_badge.png')}
style={{width: '80%', display: 'block', margin: '0'}}
/>
<br/>
### From the API
Pass `tool_name_to_display_name` and `tool_name_to_description` in the create or update request:
```bash title="Create server with tool name overrides" showLineNumbers
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/v1/mcp/server \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $LITELLM_MASTER_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"name": "petstore_mcp",
"url": "https://petstore.swagger.io/v2",
"spec_path": "/path/to/openapi.json",
"tool_name_to_display_name": {
"getPetById": "Get Pet",
"findPetsByStatus": "List Available Pets"
},
"tool_name_to_description": {
"getPetById": "Look up a pet by its ID",
"findPetsByStatus": "Returns all pets matching a given status (available, pending, sold)"
}
}'
```
```bash title="Update overrides on an existing server" showLineNumbers
curl -X PUT http://localhost:4000/v1/mcp/server/{server_id} \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $LITELLM_MASTER_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"tool_name_to_display_name": {
"getPetById": "Get Pet"
},
"tool_name_to_description": {
"getPetById": "Look up a pet by its ID"
}
}'
```
The map key is the **original `operationId`** from the spec — not the prefixed tool name. LiteLLM strips the server prefix before doing the lookup.
For example, if your server is `petstore_mcp`, the tool is exposed as `petstore_mcp-getPetById`. The map key is still `getPetById`.
**Before and after:**
```
# Without overrides
Tool: "petstore_mcp-getPetById"
Description: "Returns a single pet"
Tool: "petstore_mcp-findPetsByStatus"
Description: "Finds Pets by status"
# After overrides
Tool: "Get Pet"
Description: "Look up a pet by its ID"
Tool: "List Available Pets"
Description: "Returns all pets matching a given status (available, pending, sold)"
```

# Vantage Integration
LiteLLM can export proxy spend data to [Vantage](https://vantage.sh) as [FOCUS 1.2](https://focus.finops.org/) formatted cost reports. This lets you visualize LLM spend alongside your cloud infrastructure costs in the Vantage dashboard.
## Overview
| Property | Details |
|----------|---------|
| Destination | Export LiteLLM usage data to Vantage Custom Provider |
| Data format | FOCUS CSV (automatically transformed from LiteLLM spend data) |
| Supported operations | Manual export, automatic scheduled export (hourly/daily/interval) |
| Authentication | Vantage API key + Custom Provider token |
## Prerequisites
You need two credentials from the [Vantage console](https://console.vantage.sh):
1. **API Key** — Go to **Settings → API Access Tokens** → Create a token with **Write** scope. The token looks like `vntg_tkn_...`.
2. **Custom Provider Token** — Go to **Settings → Integrations** → Create a **Custom Provider** integration → Copy the Provider ID (looks like `accss_crdntl_...`).
## Setup via API
The recommended setup uses the proxy admin endpoints. No config file changes needed.
### 1. Initialize credentials
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/vantage/init \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $LITELLM_ADMIN_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"api_key": "vntg_tkn_YOUR_VANTAGE_API_KEY",
"integration_token": "accss_crdntl_YOUR_PROVIDER_TOKEN"
}'
```
Credentials are encrypted and stored in the proxy database.
### 2. Preview data (dry run)
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/vantage/dry-run \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $LITELLM_ADMIN_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"limit": 10}'
```
This returns FOCUS-transformed data without sending anything to Vantage. Use it to verify the pipeline works and inspect the data mapping.
### 3. Export to Vantage
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/vantage/export \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $LITELLM_ADMIN_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{}'
```
Optional parameters:
- `limit` — Max number of records to export
- `start_time_utc` / `end_time_utc` — Filter by time range (must be provided together)
### 4. Verify in Vantage
Go to **Settings → Integrations → your Custom Provider → Import Costs** tab to see uploaded CSVs. Once the status changes from "Importing and Processing" to "Stable", costs appear in **Cost Reporting → All Resources**.
## Setup via Environment Variables
For automatic scheduled exports, configure via environment variables and proxy config:
### Environment variables
| Variable | Required | Description |
|----------|----------|-------------|
| `VANTAGE_API_KEY` | Yes | Vantage API access token |
| `VANTAGE_INTEGRATION_TOKEN` | Yes | Custom Provider token from Vantage dashboard |
| `VANTAGE_BASE_URL` | No | API URL override (default: `https://api.vantage.sh`) |
| `VANTAGE_EXPORT_FREQUENCY` | No | `hourly` (default), `daily`, or `interval` |
| `VANTAGE_EXPORT_INTERVAL_SECONDS` | No | Seconds between exports when frequency is `interval` |
### Proxy config
```yaml
model_list:
- model_name: gpt-4o
litellm_params:
model: openai/gpt-4o
api_key: sk-your-key
litellm_settings:
callbacks: ["vantage"]
```
```bash
export VANTAGE_API_KEY="vntg_tkn_..."
export VANTAGE_INTEGRATION_TOKEN="accss_crdntl_..."
litellm --config /path/to/config.yaml
```
The proxy registers a background job that exports data on the configured schedule.
## API Endpoints
All endpoints require admin authentication.
| Method | Endpoint | Description |
|--------|----------|-------------|
| `POST` | `/vantage/init` | Store Vantage credentials (encrypted) |
| `GET` | `/vantage/settings` | View current config (credentials masked) |
| `PUT` | `/vantage/settings` | Update credentials or base URL |
| `POST` | `/vantage/dry-run` | Preview FOCUS data without uploading |
| `POST` | `/vantage/export` | Upload cost data to Vantage |
| `DELETE` | `/vantage/delete` | Remove credentials and stop scheduled exports |
## FOCUS Field Mapping
LiteLLM spend data is transformed into the FOCUS 1.2 schema:
| LiteLLM Field | FOCUS Column | Description |
|---------------|-------------|-------------|
| `spend` | BilledCost, EffectiveCost | Cost of the usage |
| `model` | ChargeDescription, ResourceId | Model identifier |
| `model_group` | ServiceName | Model group / deployment |
| `custom_llm_provider` | ProviderName, PublisherName | Provider (openai, anthropic, etc.) |
| `api_key` | BillingAccountId | Hashed API key |
| `api_key_alias` | BillingAccountName | Human-readable key alias |
| `team_id` | SubAccountId | Team identifier |
| `team_alias` | SubAccountName | Team name |
Additional metadata (user_id, model_group, etc.) is included in the `Tags` column as JSON.
## Upload Limits
Vantage enforces per-upload limits. LiteLLM handles these automatically:
- **10,000 rows** per upload — large exports are split into batches
- **2 MB** per upload — oversized batches are further split by size
- **Unsupported columns** are stripped before upload

### Using Aliases
Many providers release the same model under multiple names — for example, a `latest` tag and a dated version like `claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929`. Instead of duplicating the entire entry, you can use the `aliases` field:
```json
{
"claude-sonnet-4-5": {
"aliases": ["claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929"],
"input_cost_per_token": 3e-06,
"output_cost_per_token": 1.5e-05,
"litellm_provider": "anthropic",
"max_input_tokens": 200000,
"max_output_tokens": 64000,
"mode": "chat",
"supports_function_calling": true,
"supports_tool_choice": true
}
}
```
At load time, each alias is expanded into a top-level entry sharing the same data as the canonical entry. The example above makes both `claude-sonnet-4-5` and `claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929` resolve with the same pricing and capabilities.
:::info
This is different from [`model_alias_map`](../completion/model_alias.md), which is a runtime SDK/proxy feature for mapping user-facing model names to LiteLLM model identifiers. The `aliases` field here is for the model cost JSON only — it avoids duplicate entries for models that share identical pricing and capabilities.

## Files API
Upload files once and reference them by `file_id` in multiple requests—no need to re-upload content each time.
:::info
The `file_id` obtained from Anthropic only works with Anthropic Claude models. You cannot use it with other providers (OpenAI, Bedrock, etc.).
:::
- **Max file size:** 500 MB | **Total storage:** 100 GB per org
- **Pricing:** File API operations are free. File content used in Messages requests is priced as input tokens.
**Supported models by file type:**
- **Images:** All Claude 3+ models
- **PDFs:** All Claude 3.5+ models
- **Other file types** (for code execution): Claude 3.5 Haiku + all Claude 3.7+ models
### Quick Start
```python
import litellm
import os
os.environ["ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"] = "sk-ant-..."
# 1. Upload a file once
file = litellm.create_file(
file=open("document.pdf", "rb"),
purpose="messages",
custom_llm_provider="anthropic",
)
# 2. Use file_id in messages (no re-upload needed)
response = litellm.completion(
model="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929",
messages=[{
"role": "user",
"content": [
{"type": "text", "text": "Summarize this document"},
{"type": "file", "file": {"file_id": file.id, "format": "application/pdf"}}
]
}]
)
```
### File Operations
| Operation | Function |
|-----------|----------|
| Upload | `litellm.create_file(file, purpose="messages", custom_llm_provider="anthropic")` |
| List | `litellm.file_list(custom_llm_provider="anthropic")` |
| Retrieve | `litellm.file_retrieve(file_id, custom_llm_provider="anthropic")` |
| Delete | `litellm.file_delete(file_id, custom_llm_provider="anthropic")` |
| Download | `litellm.file_content(file_id, custom_llm_provider="anthropic")` |
:::note
Download only works for files created by the [code execution tool](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/tool-use/code-execution-tool), not uploaded files.
:::
### Supported Formats
| File Type | Format Value |
|-----------|-------------|
| PDF | `application/pdf` |
| Plain text | `text/plain` |
| JPEG | `image/jpeg` |
| PNG | `image/png` |
| GIF | `image/gif` |
| WebP | `image/webp` |
### Using Images
```python
# Upload image
image = litellm.create_file(
file=open("photo.jpg", "rb"),
purpose="messages",
custom_llm_provider="anthropic",
)
# Use in message
response = litellm.completion(
model="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929",
messages=[{

"content": [
{"type": "text", "text": "What's in this image?"},
{"type": "file", "file": {"file_id": image.id, "format": "image/jpeg"}}
]
}]
)
```
## Usage - passing 'user_id' to Anthropic
LiteLLM translates the OpenAI `user` param to Anthropic's `metadata[user_id]` param.

The `effort` parameter allows you to control how eager Claude is about spending tokens when responding to requests. This gives you the ability to trade off between response thoroughness and token efficiency, all with a single model.
**Note**: The effort parameter is currently in beta and only supported by Claude Opus 4.5. LiteLLM automatically adds the `effort-2025-11-24` beta header when:
- `reasoning_effort` parameter is provided (for Claude Opus 4.5 only)
**Supported models:**
- **Claude 4.6** (Opus 4.6, Sonnet 4.6) — `output_config` is a stable API feature, no beta header needed. Opus 4.6 also supports `effort="max"`.
- **Claude Opus 4.5** — requires the `effort-2025-11-24` beta header (automatically added by LiteLLM).
For Claude Opus 4.5, `reasoning_effort="medium"`—both are automatically mapped to the correct format.
LiteLLM automatically maps `reasoning_effort` → `output_config={"effort": ...}` for all supported models.

## Nova Models on SageMaker
LiteLLM supports Amazon Nova models (Nova Micro, Nova Lite, Nova 2 Lite) deployed on SageMaker Inference real-time endpoints. These custom/fine-tuned Nova models use an OpenAI-compatible API format.
**Reference:** [AWS Blog - Amazon SageMaker Inference for Custom Amazon Nova Models](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/announcing-amazon-sagemaker-inference-for-custom-amazon-nova-models/)
### Usage
Use the `sagemaker_nova/` prefix with your SageMaker endpoint name:
```python
import litellm
import os
os.environ["AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID"] = ""
os.environ["AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY"] = ""
os.environ["AWS_REGION_NAME"] = "us-east-1"
# Basic chat completion
response = litellm.completion(
model="sagemaker_nova/my-nova-endpoint",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, how are you?"}],
temperature=0.7,
max_tokens=512,
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)
```
### Streaming
```python
response = litellm.completion(
model="sagemaker_nova/my-nova-endpoint",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Write a short poem"}],
stream=True,
stream_options={"include_usage": True},
)
for chunk in response:
if chunk.choices[0].delta.content:
print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content, end="")
```
### Multimodal (Images)
Nova models on SageMaker support image inputs using base64 data URIs:
```python
response = litellm.completion(
model="sagemaker_nova/my-nova-endpoint",
messages=[
{
"role": "user",
"content": [
{"type": "text", "text": "What's in this image?"},
{"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "data:image/jpeg;base64,..."}}
]
}
],
)
```
### Proxy Config
```yaml
model_list:
- model_name: nova-micro
litellm_params:
model: sagemaker_nova/my-nova-micro-endpoint
aws_access_key_id: os.environ/AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
aws_secret_access_key: os.environ/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
aws_region_name: us-east-1
```
### Supported Parameters
All standard OpenAI parameters are supported, plus these Nova-specific parameters:
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-----------|------|-------------|
| `top_k` | integer | Limits token selection to top K most likely tokens |
| `reasoning_effort` | `"low"` \| `"high"` | Reasoning effort level (Nova 2 Lite custom models only) |
| `allowed_token_ids` | array[int] | Restrict output to specified token IDs |
| `truncate_prompt_tokens` | integer | Truncate prompt to N tokens if it exceeds limit |
```python
response = litellm.completion(
model="sagemaker_nova/my-nova-endpoint",

Azure Model Router is a feature in Azure AI Foundry that automatically routes your requests to the best available model based on your requirements. This allows you to use a single endpoint that intelligently selects the optimal model for each request.
## Quick Start
**Model pattern**: `azure_ai/model_router/<deployment-name>`
```python
import litellm
response = litellm.completion(
model="azure_ai/model_router/model-router", # Replace with your deployment name
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
api_base="https://your-endpoint.cognitiveservices.azure.com/openai/v1/",
api_key="your-api-key",

api_base: https://your-endpoint.cognitiveservices.azure.com/openai/deployments/model-router/chat/completions?api-version=2025-01-01-preview

## Cost Tracking
LiteLLM automatically handles cost tracking for Azure Model Router by:
LiteLLM automatically handles cost tracking for Azure Model Router. Understanding how this works helps you interpret spend and debug billing.
1. **Detecting the actual model**: When Azure Model Router routes your request to a specific model (e.g., `gpt-4.1-nano-2025-04-14`), LiteLLM extracts this from the response
2. **Calculating accurate costs**: Costs are calculated based on:
- The actual model used (e.g., `gpt-4.1-nano` token costs)
- Plus a flat infrastructure cost of **$0.14 per million input tokens** for using the Model Router
3. **Streaming support**: Cost tracking works correctly for both streaming and non-streaming requests
### How LiteLLM Calculates Cost
When you use Azure Model Router, LiteLLM computes **two cost components**:
| Component | Description | When Applied |
|-----------|-------------|--------------|
| **Model Cost** | Token-based cost for the actual model that handled the request (e.g., `gpt-5-nano`, `gpt-4.1-nano`) | Always, when Azure returns the model in the response |
| **Router Flat Cost** | $0.14 per million input tokens (Azure AI Foundry infrastructure fee) | When the **request** was made via a model router endpoint |
### Cost Calculation Flow
1. **Request model detection**: LiteLLM records the model you requested (e.g., `azure_ai/model_router/model-router`). If it contains `model_router` or `model-router`, the request is treated as a router request.
2. **Response model extraction**: Azure returns the actual model used in the response (e.g., `gpt-5-nano-2025-08-07`). LiteLLM uses this for the model cost lookup.
3. **Model cost**: LiteLLM looks up the response model in its pricing table and computes cost from prompt tokens and completion tokens.
4. **Router flat cost**: Because the original request was to a model router, LiteLLM adds the flat cost ($0.14 per M input tokens) on top of the model cost.
5. **Total cost**: `Total = Model Cost + Router Flat Cost`
### Configuration Requirements
For cost tracking to work correctly:
- **Use the full pattern**: `azure_ai/model_router/<deployment-name>` (e.g., `azure_ai/model_router/model-router`)
- **Proxy config**: When using the LiteLLM proxy, set `model` in `litellm_params` to the full pattern so the request model is correctly identified as a router
```yaml
# proxy_server_config.yaml
model_list:
- model_name: model-router
litellm_params:
model: azure_ai/model_router/model-router # Required for router cost detection
api_base: https://your-endpoint.cognitiveservices.azure.com/openai/deployments/model-router/chat/completions?api-version=2025-01-01-preview
api_key: your-api-key
```
### Cost Breakdown
When you use Azure Model Router, the total cost includes:
- **Model Cost**: Based on the actual model that handled your request (e.g., `gpt-4.1-nano`)
- **Model Cost**: Based on the actual model that handled your request (e.g., `gpt-5-nano`, `gpt-4.1-nano`)
- **Router Flat Cost**: $0.14 per million input tokens (Azure AI Foundry infrastructure fee)

## How It Works
Black Forest Labs uses a polling-based API:
1. **Submit Request**: LiteLLM sends your prompt to BFL
2. **Get Task ID**: BFL returns a task ID and polling URL
3. **Poll for Result**: LiteLLM automatically polls until the image is ready
4. **Return Result**: The generated image URL is returned
This polling is handled automatically by LiteLLM - you just call `image_generation()` and get the result.
## Getting Started
1. Create an account at [Black Forest Labs](https://blackforestlabs.ai/)
2. Get your API key from the dashboard
3. Set your `BFL_API_KEY` environment variable
4. Use `litellm.image_generation()` with any supported model

## How It Works
Black Forest Labs uses a polling-based API:
1. **Submit Request**: LiteLLM sends your image and prompt to BFL
2. **Get Task ID**: BFL returns a task ID and polling URL
3. **Poll for Result**: LiteLLM automatically polls until the image is ready
4. **Return Result**: The generated image URL is returned
This polling is handled automatically by LiteLLM - you just call `image_edit()` and get the result.
## Getting Started
1. Create an account at [Black Forest Labs](https://blackforestlabs.ai/)
2. Get your API key from the dashboard
3. Set your `BFL_API_KEY` environment variable
4. Use `litellm.image_edit()` with any supported model

## Media Resolution Control (Images & Videos)
For Gemini 3+ models, LiteLLM supports per-part media resolution control using OpenAI's `detail` parameter. This allows you to specify different resolution levels for individual images and videos in your request, whether using `image_url` or `file` content types.
LiteLLM supports OpenAI's `detail` parameter for specifying the image resolution when using Gemini models. The behavior differs between Gemini versions:
| Gemini Version | Resolution Control | Behavior |
|----------------|-------------------|----------|
| Gemini 3+ | Per-part | Each image/video can have its own `detail` setting |
| Gemini 2.x (2.0, 2.5) | Global | The highest `detail` from all images is applied globally via `mediaResolution` in `generationConfig` |
**Supported `detail` values:**
- `"low"` - Maps to `media_resolution: "low"` (280 tokens for images, 70 tokens per frame for videos)
- `"medium"` - Maps to `media_resolution: "medium"`
- `"high"` - Maps to `media_resolution: "high"` (1120 tokens for images)
- `"ultra_high"` - Maps to `media_resolution: "ultra_high"`
- `"low"` - Maps to `MEDIA_RESOLUTION_LOW` (280 tokens for images, 70 tokens per frame for videos)
- `"medium"` - Maps to `MEDIA_RESOLUTION_MEDIUM`
- `"high"` - Maps to `MEDIA_RESOLUTION_HIGH` (1120 tokens for images)
- `"ultra_high"` - Maps to `MEDIA_RESOLUTION_ULTRA_HIGH`
- `"auto"` or `None` - Model decides optimal resolution (no `media_resolution` set)

## Image / Vision Support
Moonshot vision models (`kimi-k2.5`, `kimi-latest`, `moonshot-v1-*-vision-preview`, etc.) accept the standard OpenAI content array with `image_url` blocks.
LiteLLM automatically detects when your messages contain images and preserves the content array so the image payload reaches the Moonshot API. For text-only requests the content is flattened to a plain string, as required by Moonshot text models.
```python showLineNumbers title="Moonshot Vision Example"

## OpenAI Chat Completion to Responses API Bridge
Call any Responses API model from OpenAI's `/chat/completions` endpoint.
LiteLLM offers a chat completion to Responses API bridge. This lets you use the completion interface while calling the Responses API under the hood.
This is useful when you want to use [Responses API](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/responses) specific features (like built-in tools, web search preview, or code interpreter).
:::tip gpt-5.4 + reasoning_effort + function tools
LiteLLM drops `reasoning_effort` from `gpt-5.4` requests to `litellm.completion()` that include tools, since that combination is supported in the Responses API.
If you need reasoning **and** tools together, use the responses bridge instead:
```python
response = litellm.completion(
model="openai/responses/gpt-5.4", # routes to /v1/responses
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What's the weather?"}],
tools=[...],
reasoning_effort="low",
)
```
:::
### When to use the `openai/responses/` prefix
Each model has a `mode` property defined in [`model_prices_and_context_window.json`](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/blob/main/model_prices_and_context_window.json) that determines which API endpoint it uses by default:
- **`mode: responses`** - Model automatically uses the Responses API
- **`mode: chat`** - Model defaults to the Chat Completions API
**Models with `mode: responses`** (automatic Responses API):
- `o3-deep-research`, `o4-mini-deep-research`
- `o1-pro`, `o3-pro`
- `gpt-5.1-codex`, `gpt-5.1-codex-mini`, `gpt-5.1-codex-max`
- `codex-mini-latest`
**Models with `mode: chat`** (require `openai/responses/` prefix for built-in tools):
- `gpt-4o`, `gpt-4o-mini`, `gpt-4.1`, `gpt-4.1-mini`
- `gpt-5`, `gpt-5-mini`
- `o3`, `o4-mini`
To use built-in tools like `web_search_preview` with `mode: chat` models, add the `openai/responses/` prefix:
```python
# This will FAIL - gpt-4o has mode: chat, uses Chat Completions API
response = litellm.completion(
model="gpt-4o",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What is the weather in Paris today?"}],
tools=[{"type": "web_search_preview"}], # Not supported in Chat Completions
# ... other kwargs
)
# This will WORK - prefix forces Responses API
response = litellm.completion(
model="openai/responses/gpt-4o",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What is the weather in Paris today?"}],
tools=[{"type": "web_search_preview"}], # Supported in Responses API

## Tool Search & Namespaces
Tool search lets models dynamically load tools at runtime instead of sending every tool definition in the prompt. Group functions into **namespaces** and mark them with `defer_loading: true` — the model only loads the schemas it actually needs, saving tokens.
Requires `gpt-5.4` or later. See [OpenAI Tool Search docs](https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/tools-tool-search) for full details.

## Image Edit
OpenRouter supports image editing through select models like Google Gemini image models. LiteLLM routes image edit requests to OpenRouter's chat completions endpoint with the source image sent as a base64 data URL and `modalities: ["image", "text"]`.
### Supported Models
| Model | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `openrouter/google/gemini-2.5-flash-image` | Gemini 2.5 Flash with image editing |
See all available image models on [OpenRouter's model list](https://openrouter.ai/models?modality=image).
### Supported Parameters
| Parameter | OpenRouter Mapping | Notes |
|-----------|--------------------|-------|
| `size` | `image_config.aspect_ratio` | `1024x1024` → `1:1`, `1536x1024` → `3:2`, `1024x1536` → `2:3`, `1792x1024` → `16:9`, `1024x1792` → `9:16` |
| `quality` | `image_config.image_size` | `low`/`standard` → `1K`, `medium` → `2K`, `high`/`hd` → `4K` |
| `n` | `n` | Number of images |
:::note
`quality=high` (4K) is only supported by `google/gemini-3-pro-image-preview` and `google/gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview`. The `google/gemini-2.5-flash-image` model supports up to `medium` (2K).
:::
### Usage
```python
from litellm import image_edit
import os
os.environ["OPENROUTER_API_KEY"] = "your-api-key"
# Basic image edit
response = image_edit(
model="openrouter/google/gemini-2.5-flash-image",
image=open("original_image.png", "rb"),
prompt="Make the sky a vibrant purple sunset",
)
print(response)
```
### Advanced Usage with Parameters
```python
from litellm import image_edit
import os
os.environ["OPENROUTER_API_KEY"] = "your-api-key"
# Edit with size and quality parameters
response = image_edit(
model="openrouter/google/gemini-2.5-flash-image",
image=open("photo.png", "rb"),
prompt="Add northern lights to the sky",
size="1536x1024", # Maps to aspect_ratio 3:2

@ -1472,6 +1472,82 @@ Your WIF credentials JSON file typically looks like this (for AWS federation):
For more details on setting up Workload Identity Federation, see [Google Cloud WIF documentation](https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/workload-identity-federation).
#### Explicit AWS Credentials for WIF
By default, AWS-based WIF relies on the EC2 instance metadata service to obtain AWS credentials. This works when LiteLLM runs on an EC2 instance or ECS task with an IAM role attached.
If your environment **does not have access to the EC2 metadata service** (e.g., running on-premises, in a container without host networking, or in a different cloud with security restrictions), you can provide explicit AWS credentials directly in the WIF credential JSON file. LiteLLM will use these to authenticate to AWS before performing the GCP token exchange.
Add the `aws_*` keys at the **top level** of your WIF credential JSON (alongside `type`, `audience`, etc.):
```json
{
"type": "external_account",
"audience": "//iam.googleapis.com/projects/PROJECT_NUMBER/locations/global/workloadIdentityPools/POOL_ID/providers/PROVIDER_ID",
"subject_token_type": "urn:ietf:params:aws:token-type:aws4_request",
"service_account_impersonation_url": "https://iamcredentials.googleapis.com/v1/projects/-/serviceAccounts/SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL:generateAccessToken",
"token_url": "https://sts.googleapis.com/v1/token",
"credential_source": {
"environment_id": "aws1",
"region_url": "http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/placement/availability-zone",
"url": "http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials",
"regional_cred_verification_url": "https://sts.{region}.amazonaws.com?Action=GetCallerIdentity&Version=2011-06-15"
},
"aws_role_name": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/MyWifRole",
"aws_region_name": "us-east-1"
}
```
**Supported `aws_*` parameters:**
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `aws_region_name` | Yes | AWS region for credential verification (e.g. `us-east-1`) |
| `aws_role_name` | No | IAM role ARN for STS AssumeRole |
| `aws_access_key_id` | No | Static AWS access key ID |
| `aws_secret_access_key` | No | Static AWS secret access key |
| `aws_session_token` | No | Temporary session token |
| `aws_profile_name` | No | AWS CLI profile name |
| `aws_session_name` | No | Session name for AssumeRole |
| `aws_web_identity_token` | No | Web identity token for STS |
| `aws_sts_endpoint` | No | Custom STS endpoint URL |
| `aws_external_id` | No | External ID for cross-account AssumeRole |
`aws_region_name` is always required when using explicit AWS credentials. The other parameters follow the same authentication flows as [Bedrock AWS auth](/docs/providers/bedrock#authentication) -- you can use role assumption, static keys, profiles, or web identity tokens.

## PayGo / Priority Cost Tracking
LiteLLM automatically tracks spend for Vertex AI Gemini models using the correct pricing tier based on the response's `usageMetadata.trafficType`:
| Vertex AI `trafficType` | LiteLLM `service_tier` | Pricing applied |
|-------------------------|-------------------------|-----------------|
| `ON_DEMAND_PRIORITY` | `priority` | PayGo / priority pricing (`input_cost_per_token_priority`, `output_cost_per_token_priority`) |
| `ON_DEMAND` | standard | Default on-demand pricing |
| `FLEX` / `BATCH` | `flex` | Batch/flex pricing |
When you use [Vertex AI PayGo](https://cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/generative-ai/pricing) (on-demand priority) or batch workloads, LiteLLM reads `trafficType` from the response and applies the matching cost per token from the [model cost map](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/blob/main/model_prices_and_context_window.json). No configuration is required — spend tracking works out of the box for both standard and PayGo requests.
See [Spend Tracking](../proxy/cost_tracking.md) for general cost tracking setup.

LiteLLM now supports predictable budget reset times that align with natural calendar boundaries:
LiteLLM supports predictable budget reset times that align with natural calendar boundaries.
- All budgets reset at midnight (00:00:00) in the configured timezone
- Special handling for common durations:
- Daily (24h/1d): Reset at midnight every day
- Weekly (7d): Reset on Monday at midnight

## How Budget Resets Work
### Configuring the Timezone
All budgets reset at midnight (00:00:00) in the configured timezone with special handling for common durations:
You can specify the timezone for all budget resets in your configuration file:
| Duration | Reset Behavior |
| --- | --- |

### Service Tier / PayGo Pricing (Vertex AI, Bedrock)
For providers that support multiple pricing tiers (e.g., Vertex AI PayGo, Bedrock service tiers), LiteLLM automatically applies the correct cost based on the response:
- **Vertex AI Gemini**: Uses `usageMetadata.trafficType` (`ON_DEMAND_PRIORITY` → priority, `FLEX`/`BATCH` → flex). See [Vertex AI - PayGo / Priority Cost Tracking](../providers/vertex.md#paygo--priority-cost-tracking).
- **Bedrock**: Uses `serviceTier` from the response. See [Bedrock - Usage - Service Tier](../providers/bedrock.md#usage---service-tier).
## Zero-Cost Models (Bypass Budget Checks)
**Use Case**: You have on-premises or free models that should be accessible even when users exceed their budget limits.

## Important Notes
### Azure Content Safety Character Limit
Both Azure Prompt Shield and Azure Text Moderation have a **10,000 character limit** per request. When text exceeds this limit:
- LiteLLM automatically splits the text into chunks at word boundaries (no words are broken)
- Each chunk is sent separately to the Azure Content Safety API for analysis
- If any chunk is flagged (attack detected or severity threshold exceeded), the entire request is blocked
- If all chunks are safe, the request is allowed to proceed
This applies to both `pre_call` and `post_call` hooks and ensures that long prompts are properly analyzed without breaking words or losing context.

# CrowdStrike AIDR
The CrowdStrike AIDR guardrail uses configurable detection policies to identify
and mitigate risks in AI application traffic, including:
- Prompt injection attacks (with over 99% efficacy)
- 50+ types of PII and sensitive content, with support for custom patterns
- Toxicity, violence, self-harm, and other unwanted content
- Malicious links, IPs, and domains
- 100+ spoken languages, with allowlist and denylist controls
All detections are logged for analysis, attribution, and incident response.
## Prerequisites
- CrowdStrike Falcon account with AIDR enabled
For detailed information about CrowdStrike AIDR features, policy configuration, and advanced usage, see the [official CrowdStrike AIDR documentation](https://aidr-docs.crowdstrike.com/docs/aidr/).
- LiteLLM installed (via pip or Docker)
- API key for your LLM provider
To follow examples in this guide, you need an OpenAI API key.
## Quick Start
In the Falcon console, click **Open menu** (**☰**) and go to **AI detection and response** > **Collectors**.
### 1. Register LiteLLM collector
1. On the **Collectors** page, click **+ Collector**.
1. Choose **Gateway** as the collector type, then select **LiteLLM** and click **Next**.
1. On the **Add a Collector** screen:
- **Collector Name** - Enter a descriptive name for the collector to appear in dashboards and reports.
- **Logging** - Select whether to log incoming (prompt) data and model responses, or only metadata submitted to AIDR.
- **Policy** (optional) - Assign a policy to apply to incoming data and model responses.
- Policies detect malicious activity, sensitive data exposure, topic violations, and other risks in AI traffic.
- When no policy is assigned, AIDR records activity for visibility and analysis, but does not apply detection rules to the data.
1. Click **Save** to complete collector registration.
### 2. Add CrowdStrike AIDR to your LiteLLM config.yaml
Define the CrowdStrike AIDR guardrail under the `guardrails` section of your
configuration file.
```yaml title="config.yaml - Example LiteLLM configuration with CrowdStrike AIDR guardrail"
model_list:
- model_name: gpt-4o # Alias used in API requests
litellm_params:
model: openai/gpt-4o-mini # Actual model to use

guardrails:
- guardrail_name: crowdstrike-aidr
litellm_params:
guardrail: crowdstrike_aidr
default_on: true # Enable for all requests.
mode: [] # Mode is required by LiteLLM but ignored by AIDR.
# Guardrail always runs in [pre_call, post_call] mode.

}
}
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem label="Redacted response" value="redacted">
In this example, we simulate a response from a privately hosted LLM that inadvertently includes information that should not be exposed by the AI assistant.
This example requires the **Confidential and PII** detector enabled in your collector's policy output rules and its **US Social Security Number** rule set to use a redact method.
:::note
If the policy input rules redact a sensitive value, you will not see redaction applied by the output rules in this test.
:::
```shell
curl -sSLX POST 'http://localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"model": "gpt-4o",
"messages": [
{

},
{
"role": "system",
"content": "You are a helpful assistant"
}
]
}' \
-w "%{http_code}"
```
When the guardrail detects PII, it redacts the sensitive content before returning the response to the user:
```json
{
"choices": [
{
"finish_reason": "stop",
"index": 0,
"message": {
"content": "Is this the patient you are interested in: James Cole, *******7890?",
"role": "assistant"
}
}
],

--data '{
"model": "gpt-4o",
"messages": [
{"role": "user", "content": "Hi :0)"}
]
}' \
-w "%{http_code}"
```
The above request should not be blocked, and you should receive a regular LLM response (simplified for brevity):
```json
{
"choices": [
{
"finish_reason": "stop",
"index": 0,
"message": {
"content": "Hello! 😊 How can I assist you today?",

### Regional Endpoints
Use the regional `api_base` that matches your Prisma AIRS deployment profile region for lower latency and data residency compliance.
PANW Prisma AIRS supports multiple regional endpoints based on your deployment profile region:
| Region | API Base URL |
|--------|--------------|
| **US** (default) | `https://service.api.aisecurity.paloaltonetworks.com` |
| **EU (Germany)** | `https://service-de.api.aisecurity.paloaltonetworks.com` |
| **India** | `https://service-in.api.aisecurity.paloaltonetworks.com` |
**Example configuration for EU region:**
```yaml
guardrails:
- guardrail_name: "panw-eu"
litellm_params:
guardrail: panw_prisma_airs
api_key: os.environ/PANW_PRISMA_AIRS_API_KEY
api_base: "https://service-de.api.aisecurity.paloaltonetworks.com"
profile_name: "production"
```
:::tip Region Selection
Use the regional endpoint that matches your Prisma AIRS deployment profile region configured in Strata Cloud Manager. Using the correct region ensures:
- Lower latency (requests stay in-region)
- Compliance with data residency requirements
- Optimal performance
:::
## Per-Request Metadata Overrides
You can override guardrail settings on a per-request basis using the `metadata` field:
```json
{
"model": "gpt-4",
"messages": [...],
"metadata": {
"profile_name": "dev-allow-all", // Override profile name
"profile_id": "uuid-here", // Override profile ID (takes precedence)
"user_ip": "192.168.1.100", // Track user IP
"app_name": "MyApp" // Custom app name (becomes "LiteLLM-MyApp")
}
}
```
**Supported Metadata Fields:**
| Field | Description | Priority |
|-------|-------------|----------|
| `profile_name` | PANW AI security profile name | Per-request > config |
| `profile_id` | PANW AI security profile ID (takes precedence over profile_name) | Per-request only |
| `user_ip` | User IP address for tracking in Prisma AIRS | Per-request only |
| `app_name` | Application identifier (prefixed with "LiteLLM-") | Per-request > config > "LiteLLM" |
| `app_user` | Custom user identifier for tracking in Prisma AIRS | `app_user` > `user` > "litellm_user" |
:::info Profile Resolution
- If both `profile_id` and `profile_name` are provided, PANW API uses `profile_id` (it takes precedence)
- If no profile is specified in metadata, uses the config `profile_name`
- If no profile is specified at all, PANW API will use the profile linked to your API key in Strata Cloud Manager
- **Note:** If your API key is not linked to a profile, you must provide `profile_name` or `profile_id`
:::
## Multi-Turn Conversation Tracking
PANW Prisma AIRS automatically tracks multi-turn conversations using LiteLLM's `litellm_trace_id`. This enables you to:
- **Group related requests** - All requests in a conversation share the same AI Session ID in Prisma AIRS SCM logs
- **Track conversation context** - See the full history of prompts and responses for a user session
- **Analyze attack patterns** - Identify sophisticated multi-turn attacks across conversation history
### How It Works
LiteLLM automatically generates a unique `litellm_trace_id` for each conversation session. The PANW guardrail uses this as the PANW transaction ID (which maps to "AI Session ID" in Strata Cloud Manager):
```
Conversation Session: litellm_trace_id = "abc-123-def-456"
Turn 1 (User): "What's the capital of France?"
→ Scan ID: scan_001 | Prisma AIRS AI Session ID: abc-123-def-456
Turn 2 (Assistant): "Paris is the capital of France."
→ Scan ID: scan_002 | Prisma AIRS AI Session ID: abc-123-def-456
Turn 3 (User): "What's the population?"
→ Scan ID: scan_003 | Prisma AIRS AI Session ID: abc-123-def-456
Turn 4 (Assistant): "Paris has approximately 2.1 million residents."
→ Scan ID: scan_004 | Prisma AIRS AI Session ID: abc-123-def-456
```
All scans appear under the same AI Session ID in Prisma AIRS logs, making it easy to:
- Review complete conversation history (all 4 turns grouped together)
- Identify patterns across multiple turns
- Correlate security events within a session
- Track the flow of user prompts and AI responses
### Session Tracking
LiteLLM automatically generates a unique `litellm_trace_id` for each request, which the PANW guardrail uses as the AI Session ID in Strata Cloud Manager. All prompt and response scans for a request are automatically grouped under the same session.
#### Custom Session IDs (Per-App Tracking)
You can provide your own `litellm_trace_id` to track sessions on a per-app or per-conversation basis:
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-1234" \
-d '{
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "capital of France"}],
"litellm_trace_id": "my-app-session-123", # Custom AI Session ID
"metadata": {
"profile_name": "dev-allow-all-profile", # Override security profile
"user_ip": "192.168.1.1", # Track user IP
"app_name": "eng" # Custom app identifier
},
"guardrails": ["panw-prisma-airs-pre-guard", "panw-prisma-airs-post-guard"]
}'
```
**Result in PANW SCM:**
- AI Session ID: `my-app-session-123`
- All prompt and response scans will be grouped under this custom session ID
- Perfect for tracking multi-turn conversations or per-application sessions
:::tip Viewing Sessions in Prisma AIRS SCM Logs
In Strata Cloud Manager, navigate to **AI Runtime > Sessions** to view all AI Session IDs and their associated scans. Click on a session to see the complete conversation history with security analysis.

### Multiple Security Profiles
You can configure different security profiles for different use cases:
```yaml
guardrails:
- guardrail_name: "panw-strict-security"
@ -361,126 +168,40 @@ guardrails:
guardrail: panw_prisma_airs
mode: "pre_call"
api_key: os.environ/PANW_PRISMA_AIRS_API_KEY
profile_name: "strict-policy" # High security profile
- guardrail_name: "panw-permissive-security"
profile_name: "strict-policy"

mode: "post_call"
api_key: os.environ/PANW_PRISMA_AIRS_API_KEY
profile_name: "permissive-policy" # Lower security profile
profile_name: "permissive-policy"
```
### Multiple API Keys (Multi-Tenant)
For multi-tenant deployments where different customers need different PANW API keys, create separate guardrail instances:
```yaml
guardrails:
- guardrail_name: "panw-customer-a"
litellm_params:
guardrail: panw_prisma_airs
mode: "pre_call"
api_key: os.environ/PANW_CUSTOMER_A_KEY # Linked to Customer A profile in SCM
- guardrail_name: "panw-customer-b"
litellm_params:
guardrail: panw_prisma_airs
mode: "pre_call"
api_key: os.environ/PANW_CUSTOMER_B_KEY # Linked to Customer B profile in SCM
```
Then route requests to the appropriate guardrail:
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-1234" \
-d '{
"model": "gpt-4",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
"guardrails": ["panw-customer-a"]
}'
```
**Use Cases:**
- **Multi-tenant deployments**: Different customers with different security policies
- **Environment-specific policies**: Dev/staging/prod with different API keys and profiles
- **A/B testing**: Compare different security profiles side-by-side
### Content Masking
PANW Prisma AIRS can automatically mask sensitive content (PII, credit cards, SSNs, etc.) instead of blocking requests. This allows your application to continue functioning while protecting sensitive data.
#### How It Works
1. **Detection**: PANW scans content and identifies sensitive data
2. **Masking**: Sensitive data is replaced with placeholders (e.g., `XXXXXXXXXX` or `{PHONE}`)
3. **Pass-through**: Masked content is sent to the LLM or returned to the user
#### Configuration Options
:::warning Important: Masking is Controlled by PANW Security Profile
The actual masking behavior (what content gets masked and how) is controlled by your PANW Prisma AIRS security profile in Strata Cloud Manager. The LiteLLM flags (`mask_request_content`, `mask_response_content`) only control whether to apply the masked content and allow the request to continue, or block entirely.
:::
```yaml
guardrails:
- guardrail_name: "panw-with-masking"
litellm_params:
guardrail: panw_prisma_airs
mode: "post_call" # Scan response output
mode: "post_call"
api_key: os.environ/PANW_PRISMA_AIRS_API_KEY
profile_name: "default"
mask_request_content: true # Mask sensitive data in prompts
mask_response_content: true # Mask sensitive data in responses
mask_request_content: true
mask_response_content: true
```
**Masking Parameters:**
- `mask_request_content: true` - When PANW detects sensitive data in prompts, mask it instead of blocking
- `mask_response_content: true` - When PANW detects sensitive data in responses, mask it instead of blocking
- `mask_on_block: true` - Backwards compatible flag that enables both request and response masking
:::warning Important: Masking is Controlled by PANW Security Profile
The **actual masking behavior** (what content gets masked and how) is controlled by your **PANW Prisma AIRS security profile** configured in Strata Cloud Manager. The LiteLLM config settings (`mask_request_content`, `mask_response_content`) only control whether to:
- **Apply the masked content** returned by PANW and allow the request to continue, OR
- **Block the request** entirely when sensitive data is detected
LiteLLM does not alter or configure your PANW security profile. To change what content gets masked, update your profile settings in Strata Cloud Manager.
:::
:::info Security Posture
The guardrail is **fail-closed** by default - if the PANW API is unavailable, requests are blocked to ensure no unscanned content reaches your LLM. This provides maximum security.
:::
### Custom Violation Messages
You can customize the error message returned to the user when a request is blocked by configuring the `violation_message_template` parameter. This is useful for providing user-friendly feedback instead of technical details.
```yaml
guardrails:
- guardrail_name: "panw-custom-message"
litellm_params:
guardrail: panw_prisma_airs
api_key: os.environ/PANW_PRISMA_AIRS_API_KEY
# Simple message
violation_message_template: "Your request was blocked by our AI Security Policy."
- guardrail_name: "panw-detailed-message"
litellm_params:
guardrail: panw_prisma_airs
api_key: os.environ/PANW_PRISMA_AIRS_API_KEY
# Message with placeholders
violation_message_template: "{action_type} blocked due to {category} violation. Please contact support."
```
**Supported Placeholders:**
- `{guardrail_name}`: Name of the guardrail (e.g. "panw-custom-message")
- `{category}`: Violation category (e.g. "malicious", "injection", "dlp")
- `{action_type}`: "Prompt" or "Response"
- `{default_message}`: The original technical error message
- `mask_request_content: true` — mask sensitive data in prompts instead of blocking
- `mask_response_content: true` — mask sensitive data in responses instead of blocking
- `mask_on_block: true` — backwards-compatible flag that enables both request and response masking
### Fail-Open Configuration
By default, the PANW guardrail operates in **fail-closed** mode for maximum security. If the PANW API is unavailable (timeout, rate limit, network error), requests are blocked. You can configure **fail-open** mode for high-availability scenarios where service continuity is critical.
```yaml
guardrails:
- guardrail_name: "panw-high-availability"
@ -488,135 +209,86 @@ guardrails:
guardrail: panw_prisma_airs
api_key: os.environ/PANW_PRISMA_AIRS_API_KEY
profile_name: "production"
fallback_on_error: "allow" # Enable fail-open mode
timeout: 5.0 # Shorter timeout for fail-open
fallback_on_error: "allow"
timeout: 5.0
```
**Configuration Options:**
| Parameter | Value | Behavior |
|-----------|-------|----------|
| `fallback_on_error` | `"block"` (default) | **Fail-closed**: Block requests when API unavailable (maximum security) |
| `fallback_on_error` | `"allow"` | **Fail-open**: Allow requests when API unavailable (high availability) |
| `timeout` | `1.0` - `60.0` | API call timeout in seconds (default: `10.0`) |
**Error Handling Matrix:**
| Error Type | `fallback_on_error="block"` | `fallback_on_error="allow"` |
|------------|----------------------------|----------------------------|
| 401 Unauthorized | Block (500) | Block (500) ⚠️ |
| 403 Forbidden | Block (500) | Block (500) ⚠️ |
| Profile Error | Block (500) | Block (500) ⚠️ |
| 401 Unauthorized | Block (500) | Block (500) |
| 403 Forbidden | Block (500) | Block (500) |
| Profile Error | Block (500) | Block (500) |
| 429 Rate Limit | Block (500) | Allow (`:unscanned`) |
| Timeout | Block (500) | Allow (`:unscanned`) |
| Network Error | Block (500) | Allow (`:unscanned`) |
| 5xx Server Error | Block (500) | Allow (`:unscanned`) |
| Content Blocked | Block (400) | Block (400) |
⚠️ = Always blocks regardless of fail-open setting
Authentication and configuration errors (401, 403, invalid profile) always block. Only transient errors (429, timeout, network) trigger fail-open.
:::warning Security Trade-Off
Enabling `fallback_on_error="allow"` reduces security in exchange for availability. Requests may proceed **without scanning** when the PANW API is unavailable. Use only when:
- Service availability is more critical than security scanning
- You have other security controls in place
- You monitor the `:unscanned` header for audit trails
When fail-open is triggered, the response includes a tracking header: `X-LiteLLM-Applied-Guardrails: panw-airs:unscanned`
**Authentication and configuration errors (401, 403, invalid profile) always block** - only transient errors (429, timeout, network) trigger fail-open behavior.
:::
**Observability:**
When fail-open is triggered, the response includes a special header for tracking:
```
X-LiteLLM-Applied-Guardrails: panw-airs:unscanned
```
This allows you to:
- Track which requests bypassed scanning
- Alert on unscanned request volumes
- Audit compliance requirements
#### Example: Masking Credit Card Numbers
<Tabs>
<TabItem label="Without Masking" value="no-mask">
**Request:**
```json
{
"messages": [
{"role": "user", "content": "My credit card is 4929-3813-3266-4295"}
]
}
```
**Response:** ❌ **Blocked with 400 error**
</TabItem>
<TabItem label="With Masking" value="with-mask">
**Request:**
```json
{
"messages": [
{"role": "user", "content": "My credit card is 4929-3813-3266-4295"}
]
}
```
**Masked prompt sent to LLM:**
```json
{
"messages": [
{"role": "user", "content": "My credit card is XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"}
]
}
```
**Response:** ✅ **Allowed with masked content**
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
#### Masking Capabilities
The guardrail masks sensitive content in:
- ✅ **Chat messages** - User prompts and assistant responses
- ✅ **Streaming responses** - Real-time masking of streamed content
- ✅ **Multi-choice responses** - All choices in the response
- ✅ **Tool/function calls** - Arguments passed to tools and functions
- ✅ **Content lists** - Mixed content types (text, images, etc.)
#### Complete Example
### Custom Violation Messages
```yaml
guardrails:
- guardrail_name: "panw-production-security"
- guardrail_name: "panw-custom-message"
litellm_params:
guardrail: panw_prisma_airs
mode: "post_call" # Scan input and output
api_key: os.environ/PANW_PRISMA_AIRS_API_KEY
profile_name: "production-profile"
mask_request_content: true # Mask sensitive prompts
mask_response_content: true # Mask sensitive responses
violation_message_template: "Your request was blocked by our AI Security Policy."
- guardrail_name: "panw-detailed-message"
litellm_params:
guardrail: panw_prisma_airs
api_key: os.environ/PANW_PRISMA_AIRS_API_KEY
violation_message_template: "{action_type} blocked due to {category} violation. Please contact support."
```
## Use Cases
**Supported Placeholders:** `{guardrail_name}`, `{category}`, `{action_type}`, `{default_message}`
From [official Prisma AIRS documentation](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/ai-runtime-security/activation-and-onboarding/ai-runtime-security-api-intercept-overview):
## Behavior and Limitations
- **Secure AI models in production**: Validate prompt requests and responses to protect deployed AI models
- **Detect data poisoning**: Identify contaminated training data before fine-tuning
- **Protect against adversarial input**: Safeguard AI agents from malicious inputs and outputs
- **Prevent sensitive data leakage**: Use API-based threat detection to block sensitive data leaks
### Transaction Tracking
For standard request/response scans, `tr_id` maps to `litellm_call_id`. MCP tool scans use the parent `litellm_call_id` when available; if missing, PANW synthesizes a fallback MCP transaction ID. The real limitation is correlation loss — synthesized MCP `tr_id` values are not grouped with the parent request's prompt/response scans in AIRS dashboards.
By default, LiteLLM generates a UUID for `litellm_call_id`. To provide your own:
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-1234" \
-H "x-litellm-call-id: my-custom-call-id-789" \
-d '{
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "capital of France"}],
"guardrails": ["panw-prisma-airs-guardrail"]
}'
```
The `x-litellm-call-id` is also returned in response headers. If you pass `litellm_trace_id` in request metadata (or via the `x-litellm-trace-id` header), it is included in the PANW API payload metadata but does not affect `tr_id` or appear in Prisma AIRS.
### Streaming
- Response masking works on OpenAI chat streaming (`mask_response_content: true`)
- `/v1/messages` and `/v1/responses` raw streaming blocks instead of masking when violations are detected
- Request-side masking (`mask_request_content`) is unaffected by endpoint type
- When `fallback_on_error: "allow"` is set, streaming responses fail open on transient PANW API errors (timeout, 5xx, network) — original chunks are yielded unchanged
## MCP Tool Security
Tool invocations are sent to AIRS as structured `tool_event` payloads containing tool name, ecosystem, and serialized arguments. Tool-event scans always use request mode.
**What is scanned:** LLM-driven `tool_calls` (name + arguments) and MCP request-side invocations when `mcp_tool_name` (or fallback `name`) is present. Response-side OpenAI-compatible `tool_calls` are also scanned when surfaced into `apply_guardrail()`.
**What is not scanned:** Tool definitions in `inputs["tools"]` and post-MCP tool results (no `post_mcp_call` hook exists yet).
## Next Steps
### Current Limitations
- Configure your security policies in [Strata Cloud Manager](https://apps.paloaltonetworks.com/)
- Review the [Prisma AIRS API documentation](https://pan.dev/airs/) for advanced features
- Set up monitoring and alerting for threat detections in your PANW dashboard
- Consider implementing both pre_call and post_call guardrails for comprehensive protection
- Monitor detection events and tune your security profiles based on your application needs
- **No post-MCP response scanning.** Actual post-MCP tool-result scanning is not supported because there is no `post_mcp_call` hook in the framework. Response-side MCP events are only scanned when they appear as regular `tool_calls` in the LLM response.
- **Guardrail selection not inherited by MCP sub-calls.** With `default_on: false`, MCP request-side child-call scans can be skipped because the parent request's guardrail selection is not propagated to the synthetic MCP payload. Workaround: use a dedicated guardrail with `mode: pre_mcp_call` and `default_on: true`.
- **MCP transaction correlation.** MCP tool scans use the parent `litellm_call_id` when available; otherwise a fallback ID is synthesized and will not be grouped with the parent request in AIRS dashboards.

# Policy Flow Builder
The Policy Flow Builder lets you design guardrail pipelines with **conditional execution**. Instead of running guardrails independently, you chain them into ordered steps and control what happens when each guardrail passes or fails.
Two powerful patterns it enables: **guardrail fallbacks** (try a different guardrail when one fails) and **retrying the same guardrail** (run the same guardrail again if it fails, e.g. to handle transient errors).
## When to use the Flow Builder
| Approach | Use case |
|----------|----------|
| **Simple policy** (`guardrails.add`) | All guardrails run in parallel; any failure blocks the request. |
| **Flow Builder** (pipeline) | Guardrails run in sequence; you choose actions per step (next, block, allow, custom response). |
Use the Flow Builder when you need:
- **Guardrail fallbacks** — use `on_fail: next` to try a different guardrail when one fails (e.g., fast filter → stricter filter)
- **Retrying the same guardrail** — add the same guardrail as multiple steps; if it fails, `on_fail: next` moves to the next step, which can be the same guardrail again (useful for transient API errors or rate limits)
- **Conditional routing** — e.g., if a fast guardrail fails, run a more advanced one instead of blocking immediately
- **Custom responses** — return a specific message when a guardrail fails instead of a generic block
- **Data chaining** — pass modified data (e.g., PII-masked content) from one step to the next
- **Fine-grained control** — different actions on pass vs. fail per step
## Concepts
### Pipeline
A pipeline has:
- **Mode**: `pre_call` (before the LLM) or `post_call` (after the LLM)
- **Steps**: Ordered list of guardrail steps
### Step actions
Each step defines what happens when the guardrail **passes** and when it **fails**:
| Action | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| **Next Step** | Continue to the next guardrail in the pipeline |
| **Allow** | Stop the pipeline and allow the request to proceed |
| **Block** | Stop the pipeline and block the request |
| **Custom Response** | Return a custom message instead of the default block |
### Step options
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|--------------|
| `guardrail` | `string` | Name of the guardrail to run |
| `on_pass` | `string` | Action when guardrail passes: `next`, `allow`, `block`, `modify_response` |
| `on_fail` | `string` | Action when guardrail fails: `next`, `allow`, `block`, `modify_response` |
| `pass_data` | `boolean` | Forward modified request data (e.g., PII-masked) to the next step |
| `modify_response_message` | `string` | Custom message when using `modify_response` action |
## Using the Flow Builder (UI)
1. Go to **Policies** in the LiteLLM Admin UI
2. Click **+ Create New Policy** or **Edit** on an existing policy
3. Select **Flow Builder** (instead of the simple form)
4. Design your flow:
- **Trigger** — Incoming LLM request (runs when the policy matches)
- **Steps** — Add guardrails, set ON PASS and ON FAIL actions per step
- **End** — Request proceeds to the LLM
5. Use the **+** between steps to insert new steps
6. Use the **Test** panel to run sample messages through the pipeline before saving
7. Click **Save** to create or update the policy
## Config (YAML)
Define a pipeline in your policy config:
```yaml showLineNumbers title="config.yaml"
guardrails:
- guardrail_name: pii_masking
litellm_params:
guardrail: presidio
mode: pre_call
- guardrail_name: prompt_injection
litellm_params:
guardrail: lakera
mode: pre_call
policies:
my-pipeline-policy:
description: "PII mask first, then check for prompt injection"
guardrails:
add:
- pii_masking
- prompt_injection
pipeline:
mode: pre_call
steps:
- guardrail: pii_masking
on_pass: next
on_fail: block
pass_data: true
- guardrail: prompt_injection
on_pass: allow
on_fail: block
policy_attachments:
- policy: my-pipeline-policy
scope: "*"
```
## Fallbacks and retries
### Guardrail fallbacks
Use `on_fail: next` to fall back to another guardrail when one fails. Run a lightweight guardrail first; if it fails, escalate to a stricter or different provider:
```yaml
policies:
fallback-policy:
guardrails:
add:
- fast_content_filter
- strict_content_filter
pipeline:
mode: pre_call
steps:
- guardrail: fast_content_filter
on_pass: allow
on_fail: next
- guardrail: strict_content_filter
on_pass: allow
on_fail: block
```
If `fast_content_filter` passes → allow. If it fails → run `strict_content_filter`; pass → allow, fail → block.
### Retrying the same guardrail
Add the same guardrail as multiple steps to retry on failure. Useful for transient errors (API timeouts, rate limits):
```yaml
policies:
retry-policy:
guardrails:
add:
- lakera_prompt_injection
pipeline:
mode: pre_call
steps:
- guardrail: lakera_prompt_injection
on_pass: allow
on_fail: next
- guardrail: lakera_prompt_injection
on_pass: allow
on_fail: block
```
First attempt passes → allow. First attempt fails → retry the same guardrail; second pass → allow, second fail → block.
## Example: Custom response on fail
Return a branded message instead of a generic block:
```yaml
policies:
branded-block-policy:
guardrails:
add:
- pii_detector
pipeline:
mode: pre_call
steps:
- guardrail: pii_detector
on_pass: allow
on_fail: modify_response
modify_response_message: "Your message contains sensitive information. Please remove PII and try again."
```
## Test a pipeline (API)
Test a pipeline with sample messages before attaching it:
```bash
curl -X POST "http://localhost:4000/policies/test-pipeline" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <your_api_key>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"pipeline": {
"mode": "pre_call",
"steps": [
{
"guardrail": "pii_masking",
"on_pass": "next",
"on_fail": "block",
"pass_data": true
},
{
"guardrail": "prompt_injection",
"on_pass": "allow",
"on_fail": "block"
}
]
},
"test_messages": [
{"role": "user", "content": "What is 2+2?"},
{"role": "user", "content": "My SSN is 123-45-6789"}
]
}'
```
Response includes per-step outcomes (pass/fail/error), actions taken, and timing.
## Pipeline vs simple policy
When a policy has a `pipeline`, the pipeline defines execution order and actions. The `guardrails.add` list must include all guardrails used in the pipeline steps.
| Policy type | Execution |
|-------------|-----------|
| Simple (`guardrails.add` only) | All guardrails run; any failure blocks |
| Pipeline (`pipeline` present) | Steps run in order; actions control flow |

# Team Bring-Your-Own Guardrails
Team-based guardrails let **developers** register a guardrail for their team via the API; an **admin** then reviews and approves or rejects it in the LiteLLM UI. Only [Generic Guardrail API](/docs/adding_provider/generic_guardrail_api) guardrails can be registered this way.
## Overview
- **Developer flow:** Use a **team-scoped API key** to `POST /guardrails/register` with your guardrail config. The submission is stored with status `pending_review`.
- **Admin flow:** In the proxy UI, open **Guardrails → Team Guardrails**, review pending submissions, and **Approve** or **Reject**. Approved guardrails become active and are initialized in memory.
---
## Developer flow: Register a guardrail
### Prerequisites
- A **team-scoped** API key (the key must be associated with a team). Keys without a team cannot register guardrails.
- Your guardrail must follow the [Generic Guardrail API](/docs/adding_provider/generic_guardrail_api) contract and config.
### Request
**Endpoint:** `POST /guardrails/register`
**Headers:** `Authorization: Bearer <team_scoped_api_key>`
**Body:** JSON matching the Generic Guardrail API config.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `guardrail_name` | string | Yes | Unique name for the guardrail. |
| `litellm_params` | object | Yes | Must include `guardrail: "generic_guardrail_api"`, `mode` (e.g. `pre_call`, `post_call`), and `api_base`. See [Generic Guardrail API](/docs/adding_provider/generic_guardrail_api#litellm-configuration). |
| `guardrail_info` | object | No | Optional metadata (e.g. `description`). |
### Requirements for `litellm_params`
- `guardrail` must be exactly `"generic_guardrail_api"`.
- `api_base` is required (your guardrail API base URL).
- `mode` is required (e.g. `pre_call`, `post_call`, `during_call`).
### Example
```bash
curl -X POST "http://localhost:4000/guardrails/register" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <your_team_scoped_api_key>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"guardrail_name": "my-team-guard",
"litellm_params": {
"guardrail": "generic_guardrail_api",
"mode": "pre_call",
"api_base": "https://your-guardrail-api.com",
"api_key": "optional-api-key",
"unreachable_fallback": "fail_closed",
"forward_api_key": true
},
"guardrail_info": {
"description": "Team content moderation guardrail"
}
}'
```
### Example response
```json
{
"guardrail_id": "123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000",
"guardrail_name": "my-team-guard",
"status": "pending_review",
"submitted_at": "2025-02-28T12:00:00.000Z"
}
```
### Errors
- **400** – Missing or invalid body (e.g. `guardrail` not `generic_guardrail_api`, missing `api_base` or `mode`), or a guardrail with the same `guardrail_name` already exists.
- **400** – "Registration requires an API key associated with a team. Use a team-scoped key." → Use an API key that has a team.
- **500** – Server/database error.
After a successful register, the guardrail stays in `pending_review` until an admin approves or rejects it.
---
## Admin flow: Approve or reject in the UI
Admins review and approve or reject team guardrail submissions in the LiteLLM proxy UI.
### 1. Open the Guardrails page
In the proxy dashboard, go to **Guardrails** (sidebar or navigation).
### 2. Open the Team Guardrails tab
Switch to the **Team Guardrails** tab. This tab lists all team-submitted guardrails and their status.
<Image img={require('../../../img/admin_team_guardrails.png')} alt="Team Guardrails admin view: status summary (Total, Pending Review, Active, Rejected), guardrail list with Pending Review tag, and detail panel with Approve/Reject buttons and configuration options." style={{ width: '100%', maxWidth: '900px', height: 'auto' }} />
### 3. Review submissions
The table shows:
- **Name**, **Team**, **Endpoint** (api_base), **Status** (Pending Review / Active / Rejected), **Submitted** date, **Submitted by** (user/email), and other config details.
Summary cards show counts for **Total**, **Pending Review**, **Active**, and **Rejected**.
<!-- Optional: screenshot of the Team Guardrails table and summary -->
### 4. Approve or reject
- **Pending Review:** Use **Approve** to activate the guardrail. The proxy sets its status to `active` and initializes it in memory so it can be used on requests.
- Use **Reject** to decline the submission (status becomes `rejected`).
Approval triggers the same initialization as adding a guardrail via config or the admin guardrail API; rejection only updates the status and does not load the guardrail.
<!-- Optional: screenshot of Approve/Reject actions or confirmation dialog -->
### API equivalent (admin only)
Admins can also use the REST API:
- **List submissions:** `GET /guardrails/submissions` (optional query: `status`, `team_id`, `search`)
- **Get one:** `GET /guardrails/submissions/{guardrail_id}`
- **Approve:** `POST /guardrails/submissions/{guardrail_id}/approve`
- **Reject:** `POST /guardrails/submissions/{guardrail_id}/reject`
These endpoints require **admin** (e.g. `PROXY_ADMIN`) authentication.
---
## Summary
| Role | Action |
|------|--------|
| **Developer** | Call `POST /guardrails/register` with a team-scoped key and a `generic_guardrail_api` config. Submission enters `pending_review`. |
| **Admin** | Open **Guardrails → Team Guardrails** in the UI (or use the submissions API), then **Approve** or **Reject** each submission. Approved guardrails become active. |
Only guardrails with `litellm_params.guardrail: "generic_guardrail_api"` are accepted for registration. For the full contract and config options, see [Generic Guardrail API](/docs/adding_provider/generic_guardrail_api).

## Special Considerations for Responses API
When load balancing OpenAI's Responses API across deployments with **different API keys** (e.g., different Azure regions or organizations), encrypted content items (like `rs_...` reasoning items) can only be decrypted by the originating API key.
**Solution:** Use the `encrypted_content_affinity` pre-call check to automatically route follow-up requests containing encrypted items to the correct deployment:
```yaml
model_list:
- model_name: gpt-5.1-codex
litellm_params:
model: azure/gpt-5.1-codex
api_base: https://eastus.openai.azure.com/
api_key: os.environ/AZURE_API_KEY_EASTUS
model_info:
id: "deployment-eastus"
- model_name: gpt-5.1-codex
litellm_params:
model: azure/gpt-5.1-codex
api_base: https://westeurope.openai.azure.com/
api_key: os.environ/AZURE_API_KEY_WESTEUROPE
model_info:
id: "deployment-westeurope"
router_settings:
optional_pre_call_checks:
- encrypted_content_affinity # 👈 Prevents invalid_encrypted_content errors
```
This ensures requests containing encrypted content are routed to the deployment that created them, while other requests continue to load balance normally.

# /realtime - WebRTC Support
Connect to the Realtime API via WebRTC from browser/mobile clients. LiteLLM handles auth; audio streams directly to OpenAI/Azure.
**Providers:** OpenAI · Azure
:::info **WebRTC vs WebSocket**
- **WebSocket** (`/v1/realtime`) — server-to-server
- **WebRTC** (`/v1/realtime/client_secrets` + `/v1/realtime/calls`) — browser/mobile, lower latency
:::
## How it works
LiteLLM issues tokens and relays SDP; audio never passes through the proxy.
```
Browser LiteLLM Proxy OpenAI/Azure
| | |
|-- POST client_secrets --->|-- POST sessions -------->|
|<-- encrypted_token -------|<-- ek_... ---------------|
|-- POST calls [SDP+token] ->|-- POST calls ----------->|
|<-- SDP answer ------------|<-- SDP answer -----------|
|===== audio P2P direct ===============================>|
```
## Proxy Setup
```yaml
model_list:
- model_name: gpt-4o-realtime
litellm_params:
model: openai/gpt-4o-realtime-preview-2024-12-17
api_key: os.environ/OPENAI_API_KEY
model_info:
mode: realtime
```
**Azure:** `model: azure/gpt-4o-realtime-preview`, `api_key`, `api_base`.
```bash
litellm --config /path/to/config.yaml
```
## Client Usage
1. **Token** — `POST /v1/realtime/client_secrets` with LiteLLM key and `{ model }`.
2. **WebRTC** — Create `RTCPeerConnection`, add mic, data channel `oai-events`, send SDP offer to `POST /v1/realtime/calls` with `Authorization: Bearer <token>`, `Content-Type: application/sdp`.
3. **Events** — Use data channel for `session.update` and other events.
```javascript
const r = await fetch("http://proxy:4000/v1/realtime/client_secrets", {
method: "POST",
headers: { "Authorization": "Bearer sk-litellm-key", "Content-Type": "application/json" },
body: JSON.stringify({ model: "gpt-4o-realtime" }),
});
const token = (await r.json()).client_secret.value;
const pc = new RTCPeerConnection();
const audio = document.createElement("audio");
audio.autoplay = true;
pc.ontrack = (e) => (audio.srcObject = e.streams[0]);
const ms = await navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ audio: true });
pc.addTrack(ms.getTracks()[0]);
const dc = pc.createDataChannel("oai-events");
const offer = await pc.createOffer();
await pc.setLocalDescription(offer);
const sdpRes = await fetch("http://proxy:4000/v1/realtime/calls", {
method: "POST",
headers: { "Authorization": `Bearer ${token}`, "Content-Type": "application/sdp" },
body: offer.sdp,
});
await pc.setRemoteDescription({ type: "answer", sdp: await sdpRes.text() });
dc.send(JSON.stringify({ type: "session.update", session: { instructions: "..." } }));
```
## FAQ
- **401 Token expired** — Get a fresh token right before creating the WebRTC offer.
- **Which key for `/calls`?** — Encrypted token from `client_secrets`, not raw key.
- **Pass `model`?** — No. Token encodes routing.
- **Azure `api-version`** — Set `api_version` in `litellm_params` and correct `api_base`.
- **No audio** — Grant mic; ensure `pc.ontrack` sets autoplay audio; check firewall/WebRTC; inspect console.

:::important
**`enable_pre_call_checks` is required** for context-window enforcement. Without it, requests are sent to the provider regardless of input token count. Set `enable_pre_call_checks: true` in `router_settings` in your config.
:::
#### Custom max_input_tokens per deployment
You can override the default context limit for a deployment by setting `max_input_tokens` in `model_info`. This is useful for testing, rate-limiting long prompts, or enforcing stricter limits than the provider's default.
**Both** of the following are required:
1. **`router_settings.enable_pre_call_checks: true`** — enables pre-call checks
2. **`model_info.max_input_tokens`** on the deployment — overrides the limit for that model
```yaml
router_settings:
enable_pre_call_checks: true # Required for enforcement
model_list:
- model_name: gpt-4o
litellm_params:
model: openai/gpt-4o
api_key: os.environ/OPENAI_API_KEY
model_info:
max_input_tokens: 10 # Override: reject prompts > 10 tokens
```
If a request exceeds the limit, LiteLLM raises `ContextWindowExceededError` with details like `Model=gpt-4o, Max Input Tokens=10, Got=306`.
**1. Setup config**
For azure deployments, set the base model. Pick the base model from [this list](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/blob/main/model_prices_and_context_window.json), all the azure models start with azure/.

```
## Regex-based tag routing (`tag_regex`)
Use `tag_regex` to route requests based on regex patterns matched against request headers, without requiring clients to pass a tag explicitly. This is useful when clients already send a recognisable header, such as `User-Agent`.
**Use case: route all Claude Code traffic to dedicated AWS accounts**
Claude Code always sends `User-Agent: claude-code/<version>`. With `tag_regex` you can route that traffic to a dedicated deployment automatically — no per-developer configuration needed.
### 1. Config
```yaml
model_list:
# Claude Code traffic → dedicated deployment, matched by User-Agent
- model_name: claude-sonnet
litellm_params:
model: bedrock/converse/anthropic-claude-sonnet-4-6
aws_region_name: us-east-1
aws_role_name: arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/LiteLLMClaudeCode
tag_regex:
- "^User-Agent: claude-code\\/" # matches claude-code/1.x, 2.x, etc.
model_info:
id: claude-code-deployment
# All other traffic falls back to the default deployment
- model_name: claude-sonnet
litellm_params:
model: bedrock/converse/anthropic-claude-sonnet-4-6
aws_region_name: us-east-1
aws_role_name: arn:aws:iam::444455556666:role/LiteLLMDefault
tags:
- default
model_info:
id: regular-deployment
router_settings:
enable_tag_filtering: true
tag_filtering_match_any: true
general_settings:
master_key: sk-1234
```
### 2. Verify routing
Claude Code sets `User-Agent: claude-code/<version>` automatically — no client config needed:
```shell
# Claude Code request (User-Agent set automatically by Claude Code)
curl http://localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-1234" \
-H "User-Agent: claude-code/1.2.3" \
-d '{"model": "claude-sonnet", "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "hi"}]}'
# → x-litellm-model-id: claude-code-deployment
# Any other client (no matching User-Agent) → default deployment
curl http://localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-1234" \
-d '{"model": "claude-sonnet", "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "hi"}]}'
# → x-litellm-model-id: regular-deployment
```
### How matching works
| Priority | Condition | Result |
|----------|-----------|--------|
| 1 | Request has `tags` AND deployment has `tags` | Exact tag match (respects `match_any` setting) |
| 2 | Deployment has `tag_regex` AND request has a `User-Agent` | Regex match (always OR logic — any pattern match suffices) |
| 3 | Deployment has `tags: [default]` | Default fallback |
| 4 | No default set | All healthy deployments returned |
`tag_regex` always uses OR semantics — `tag_filtering_match_any=False` applies only to exact tag matching, not to regex patterns.
### Observability
When a regex matches, `tag_routing` is written into request metadata and flows to SpendLogs:
```json
{
"tag_routing": {
"matched_via": "tag_regex",
"matched_value": "^User-Agent: claude-code\\/",
"user_agent": "claude-code/1.2.3",
"request_tags": []
}
}
```
### Security note
:::caution
**`User-Agent` is a client-supplied header and can be set to any value.** Any API consumer can send `User-Agent: claude-code/1.0` regardless of whether they are actually using Claude Code.
Do not rely on `tag_regex` routing to enforce access controls or spend limits — use [team/key-based routing](./users) for that. `tag_regex` is a **traffic classification hint** (useful for billing visibility, capacity planning, and routing convenience), not a security boundary.

## ✨ Team based tag routing (Enterprise)
LiteLLM Proxy supports team-based tag routing, allowing you to associate specific tags with teams and route requests accordingly. Example **Team A can access gpt-4 deployment A, Team B can access gpt-4 deployment B** (LLM Access Control For Teams)
