Open WebUI → AI24X

Open WebUI is a popular self-hosted chat UI. Add AI24X as an OpenAI-compatible connection—one key for flash/pro and VIP named models, PayPal USD top-up.

1) Prerequisites

Sign up → Console → create an API key → keep a small credit balance. Open WebUI running (Docker or local).

2) Admin UI connection

  1. Sign in as admin → Settings → Connections (or Admin → Settings → Connections).
  2. OpenAI / OpenAI-compatible → add or edit connection.
  3. API Base URL: https://api.ai24x.com/v1 (stop at /v1).
  4. API Key: your AI24X key from Console.
  5. Save → refresh model list → enable flash (optional pro / ultra).
  6. New chat → select flash → send hello.

3) Docker / env alternative

Some installs prefer environment variables (names vary by Open WebUI version):

OPENAI_API_BASE_URL=https://api.ai24x.com/v1 OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_AI24X_API_KEY

If your image uses OPENAI_API_BASES / multi-connection JSON, keep the same base URL ending at /v1 and the same key.

4) Pitfalls

  • Base URL with /chat/completions appended → 405 (the UI adds the path).
  • 401 = bad key—rotate in Console and update the connection.
  • Model list empty: confirm the connection is enabled and you can reach api.ai24x.com from the host running Open WebUI.
  • VIP named models (e.g. vip-kimi) need an active membership and prepaid credits for those ids.
