API key providers - Manifest

Most providers work the standard way: sign up, generate an API key, paste it into Manifest. Routed requests go out with that key as the credential.

Add a provider

1

Open the Routing page

In the dashboard, navigate to Routing. You’ll see a tile for every supported provider.

2

Click the provider tile

The tile opens a panel where you can paste your API key.

3

Paste the key and save

Manifest validates the key by fetching the provider’s model list. If the key is rejected, double-check the prefix below.

Key prefixes

Each provider issues keys with a recognizable prefix. Useful for catching paste mistakes:

Provider	Prefix	Example
OpenAI	`sk-`	`sk-...`
Anthropic	`sk-ant-`	`sk-ant-...`
xAI	`xai-`	`xai-...`
DeepSeek	`sk-`	`sk-...`
Moonshot	`sk-`	`sk-...`
MiniMax	`sk-`	`sk-...`
Qwen	`sk-`	`sk-...`
OpenRouter	`sk-or-`	`sk-or-...`
Google	none	API key
Mistral	none	API key
Z.ai	none	API key
