Copy a working request

Every request needs the model field. Examples use a Bash-compatible shell.

POSTCreate a response/responses

Send input as text or a message array, with optional instructions. Use store:false. Read text and function calls from the output array.

$ curl https://bharatcode.ai/api/model/v1/responses -H "Authorization: Bearer $BHARATCODE_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"model":"qwen-3.8-27b","input":"Say hello from BharatCode","store":false}'
POSTStream a response/responses

Set stream:true for server-sent events. Text arrives in response.output_text.delta; finish on response.completed or response.incomplete. Handle response.failed as an error, not a successful response. Queue keepalive comments are not model output.

$ curl -N https://bharatcode.ai/api/model/v1/responses -H "Authorization: Bearer $BHARATCODE_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"model":"qwen-3.8-27b","input":"Explain a binary search in three steps","store":false,"stream":true}'
POSTCall your own tools/responses

Define function tools using name and parameters. Your application validates arguments and executes the function; BharatCode does not run it. For the next request, include the original input, the response.output items, and a function_call_output item with the matching call_id and a string output. Keep store:false and resend any tool definitions you still need.

$ curl https://bharatcode.ai/api/model/v1/responses -H "Authorization: Bearer $BHARATCODE_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"model":"qwen-3.8-27b","input":"What is the weather in Delhi?","store":false,"tools":[{"type":"function","name":"get_weather","description":"Look up current weather for a city","parameters":{"type":"object","properties":{"city":{"type":"string"}},"required":["city"],"additionalProperties":false},"strict":true}],"tool_choice":{"type":"function","name":"get_weather"}}'
POSTGenerate code and call tools/chat/completions

Send OpenAI-compatible messages to Qwen 3.8 27B or DeepSeek V4.1 Flash. The model field is required.

$ curl https://bharatcode.ai/api/model/v1/chat/completions -H "Authorization: Bearer $BHARATCODE_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"model":"qwen-3.8-27b","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Say hello from BharatCode"}]}'

Use the OpenAI SDK

Point the OpenAI SDK at the BharatCode base URL. Keep your key on the server.

import OpenAI from 'openai'

const client = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.BHARATCODE_API_KEY,
  baseURL: 'https://bharatcode.ai/api/model/v1',
})

const response = await client.responses.create({
  model: 'qwen-3.8-27b',
  input: 'Build a study planner schema',
  store: false,
})
console.log(response.output_text)

Responses support

  • Supported: text and image input, streaming, your own function tools, and structured output through text.format. Send the conversation history with each request.
  • Not supported: store:true, previous_response_id, hosted tools, background jobs, and audio, video or file input. These return 400.

When it's busy

A 503 means the model is busy. Wait a few seconds and retry. A stream that has already started ends with response.failed instead.
