LiteLLM Terraform Provider

This Terraform provider allows you to manage LiteLLM resources through Infrastructure as Code. It provides support for managing models, teams, team members, and API keys via the LiteLLM REST API.

Source of truth

This directory (terraform/provider/ in BerriAI/litellm) is the source of truth for the provider. BerriAI/terraform-provider-litellm is a thin release mirror that the public Terraform Registry ingests from; do not open PRs there. Changes land here, where CI builds the provider, runs its tests, and statically audits every endpoint the provider calls against the proxy's generated OpenAPI schema (tools/endpointaudit/), so the provider cannot drift from the LiteLLM API silently. Releases are published by mirroring this directory into the split repo and tagging it, which triggers the goreleaser workflow there (see RELEASING.md)

Versioning

The provider version is the LiteLLM version. Every LiteLLM release (dev, rc and stable) publishes the provider at the same version as the proxy, built from the same commit, so 1.99.0 of the provider is the one that shipped with 1.99.0 of the proxy and was audited against that proxy's API. Pin the provider to the line your proxy runs:

version = "~> 1.99.0"

Pre-release versions (1.99.0-rc.1, 1.99.0-dev.1) are published too; Terraform only selects one when it is pinned exactly.

Versions 0.1.0 through 0.4.0 predate this scheme and sit on their own line. They stay in the registry, but a ~> 0.4 constraint will never pick up another release: re-pin to the LiteLLM version to keep receiving updates.

Features

• Manage LiteLLM model configurations
• Associate models with specific teams
• Create and manage teams
• Configure team members and their permissions
• Set usage limits and budgets
• Control access to specific models
• Specify model modes (e.g., completion, embedding, image generation)
• Manage API keys with fine-grained controls
• Support for reasoning effort configuration in the model resource

Requirements

• Terraform >= 0.13.x
• Go >= 1.16 (for development)

Using the Provider

To use the LiteLLM provider in your Terraform configuration, you need to declare it in the terraform block:

terraform {
  required_providers {
    litellm = {
      source  = "BerriAI/litellm"
      version = "~> 1.99.0" # the LiteLLM version your proxy runs
    }
  }
}

provider "litellm" {
  api_base = var.litellm_api_base
  api_key  = var.litellm_api_key
}

Then, you can use the provider to manage LiteLLM resources. Here's an example of creating a model configuration:

resource "litellm_model" "gpt4" {
  model_name          = "gpt-4-proxy"
  custom_llm_provider = "openai"
  model_api_key       = var.openai_api_key
  model_api_base      = "https://api.openai.com/v1"
  base_model          = "gpt-4"
  tier                = "paid"
  mode                = "chat"
  reasoning_effort    = "medium"  # Optional: "low", "medium", or "high"
  
  input_cost_per_million_tokens  = 30.0
  output_cost_per_million_tokens = 60.0
}

For full details on the litellm_model resource, see the model resource documentation.

Here's an example of creating an API key with various options:

resource "litellm_key" "example_key" {
  models               = ["gpt-4", "claude-3.5-sonnet"]
  max_budget           = 100.0
  user_id              = "user123"
  team_id              = "team456"
  max_parallel_requests = 5
  tpm_limit            = 1000
  rpm_limit            = 60
  budget_duration      = "monthly"
  key_alias            = "prod-key-1"
  duration             = "30d"
  metadata             = {
    environment = "production"
  }
  allowed_cache_controls = ["no-cache", "max-age=3600"]
  soft_budget          = 80.0
  aliases              = {
    "gpt-4" = "gpt4"
  }
  config               = {
    default_model = "gpt-4"
  }
  permissions          = {
    can_create_keys = "true"
  }
  model_max_budget     = {
    "gpt-4" = 50.0
  }
  model_rpm_limit      = {
    "claude-3.5-sonnet" = 30
  }
  model_tpm_limit      = {
    "gpt-4" = 500
  }
  guardrails           = ["content_filter", "token_limit"]
  blocked              = false
  tags                 = ["production", "api"]
}

The litellm_key resource supports the following options:

• models: List of allowed models for this key
• max_budget: Maximum budget for the key
• user_id and team_id: Associate the key with a user and team
• max_parallel_requests: Limit concurrent requests
• tpm_limit and rpm_limit: Set tokens and requests per minute limits
• budget_duration: Specify budget duration (e.g., "monthly", "weekly")
• key_alias: Set a friendly name for the key
• duration: Set the key's validity period
• metadata: Add custom metadata to the key
• allowed_cache_controls: Specify allowed cache control directives
• soft_budget: Set a soft budget limit
• aliases: Define model aliases
• config: Set configuration options
• permissions: Specify key permissions
• model_max_budget, model_rpm_limit, model_tpm_limit: Set per-model limits
• guardrails: Apply specific guardrails to the key
• blocked: Flag to block/unblock the key
• tags: Add tags for organization and filtering

Notes

• Always use environment variables or secure secret management solutions to handle sensitive information like API keys and AWS credentials.
• Refer to the comprehensive documentation in the docs/ directory for detailed usage examples and configuration options.
• Keep the provider version in step with the LiteLLM version your proxy runs; see Versioning.
• The provider now supports AWS cross-account access with aws_session_name and aws_role_name parameters in the model resource.
• All example configurations have been consolidated into the documentation for better organization and maintenance.
