OpenAI Agents SDK configured for custom APIs

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A developer has detailed how to configure the OpenAI Agents SDK to work with custom OpenAI-compatible APIs, addressing common issues like incorrect API endpoints and disabled tracing. The guide explains that the SDK defaults to using the "responses" API and attempts to send traces to OpenAI, which can cause errors when connected to a chat-only gateway. Solutions involve disabling tracing and explicitly setting the API to use "chat_completions" through various methods, including direct client configuration or using the OpenAIProvider. AI

IMPACT Enables developers to integrate custom LLMs with OpenAI's agent framework, expanding flexibility.

RANK_REASON The article provides a technical guide on configuring a specific SDK for use with custom APIs, which falls under tooling.

    OpenAI Agents SDK on a Custom OpenAI-Compatible API: Chat Completions, Responses and the Tracing Trap

    <p>I'm Aman Kumar. The OpenAI Agents SDK (<code>openai-agents</code> on PyPI) is a clean way to run tool-calling agents in Python. Out of the box it talks to api.openai.com over the Responses API and ships traces back to OpenAI. Point it at another OpenAI-compatible server withou…
