tip

We support ALL Groq models, just set model=groq/<any-model-on-groq> as a prefix when sending litellm requests

API Key

# env variable
os.environ['GROQ_API_KEY']

Sample Usage

from litellm import completion
import os

os.environ['GROQ_API_KEY'] = ""
response = completion(
model="groq/llama3-8b-8192",
messages=[
{"role": "user", "content": "hello from litellm"}
],
)
print(response)

Sample Usage - Streaming

from litellm import completion
import os

os.environ['GROQ_API_KEY'] = ""
response = completion(
model="groq/llama3-8b-8192",
messages=[
{"role": "user", "content": "hello from litellm"}
],
stream=True
)

for chunk in response:
print(chunk)

Usage with LiteLLM Proxy

1. Set Groq Models on config.yaml

model_list:
- model_name: groq-llama3-8b-8192 # Model Alias to use for requests
litellm_params:
model: groq/llama3-8b-8192
api_key: "os.environ/GROQ_API_KEY" # ensure you have `GROQ_API_KEY` in your .env

2. Start Proxy

litellm --config config.yaml

3. Test it

Make request to litellm proxy

curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data ' {
"model": "groq-llama3-8b-8192",
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "what llm are you"
}
]
}
'
