Endpoints and Regions
Default Endpoint
Section titled “Default Endpoint”Most users only need the default API endpoint:
https://api.akarouter.com/v1The default endpoint handles backend routing. You do not need to maintain hidden provider URLs in your own client.
Regional Endpoints
Section titled “Regional Endpoints”If the console shows regional endpoints, you can choose one that better matches where your service runs. Regional endpoints are useful when:
- Your service is deployed in a specific region and you want to reduce network routing distance.
- You want to keep test traffic on one region.
- The console or support team recommends a temporary regional endpoint.
Switching Rules
Section titled “Switching Rules”- Use
https://api.akarouter.com/v1by default. - Switch to a regional endpoint only when it is shown in the console, announced publicly, or recommended by support.
- Keep the same API key, model name, and request format after switching.
- If the switch is temporary, you can move back to the default endpoint after the issue is resolved.
Health Check
Section titled “Health Check”If you need a service reachability check, request:
curl -fsS https://api.akarouter.com/healthThis only checks whether the API entry point is reachable. It does not guarantee that every model is available. Use the Model Status page and actual API responses for model availability.
