FAQPage Schema

How do I find the Grok model ID that supports vision input on the OpenRouter API?▼

To find a Grok model ID supporting vision input on the OpenRouter API, research available models to identify specific image processing capabilities and context window sizes. This identifies the correct ID for image-based judge service requests.

What is the correct image input format for OpenRouter API vision models?▼

The correct image input format for OpenRouter API vision models involves specific base64 or URL structures integrated into the request payload. Following documented integration patterns ensures your vision API requests are parsed correctly by the model.

How do I handle API errors with httpx clients when integrating OpenRouter?▼

To handle API errors with Python httpx clients integrating OpenRouter, implement specific error handling strategies outlined in the API documentation. This manages failed requests, timeouts, and response validation during your model integration.

Can I use Grok models for a judge service that evaluates image inputs?▼

Yes, you can use Grok models for a judge service evaluating image inputs by selecting a Grok model ID with confirmed vision capabilities. This allows the service to process and analyze image data via the OpenRouter API.

What are the integration patterns for the OpenRouter API using Python?▼

Integration patterns for the OpenRouter API using Python involve configuring Python httpx clients, structuring request/response formats, and applying recommended constants. These patterns streamline connecting your application to various models like Grok.
