LLM APIs - Documentation

Integrate with Llama models or use Hive's custom-trained LLM, tailored for flexible moderation tasks.

Welcome to our LLM API docs!

Developers can easily integrate with Llama 3.1 and 3.2 models at multiple sizes using our platform.

You can also try out Hive's LLM, called Moderation 11b Vision Language Model - which has been purpose-built for specialized tasks like moderation and policy-following.

🛝

If you'd like to get started right away - head to our Playground and sign up for a (free!) account to test our models.

Models

We offer a variety of Meta’s open-source Llama Instruct models from the 3.1 and 3.2 series, with additional models to be served in the near future.

Here are the differences between our current LLM offerings:

ModelDescription
Llama 3.2 1B InstructLlama 3.2 1B Instruct is a lightweight, multilingual, text-only model that fits onto both edge and mobile devices. Use cases where the model excels include summarizing or rewriting inputs, as well as instruction following.

Getting your V3 API Key

Your V3 API Key can be created in the left sidebar of the Hive UI, under "API Keys."

Follow these steps to generate your key:

  • Click ‘API Keys’ in the sidebar.
  • Click ‘+’ to create a new key scoped to your organization. The same key can be used with any "Playground available" model.

⚠️ Important: Keep your API Key secure. Do not expose it in client-side environments like browsers or mobile apps.

V3 Request Format

Below are the input fields for a multimodal LLM cURL request. The asterisk (*) next to an input field designates that it is required.


model*: The name of the model to call.
max_tokens: Limits the number of tokens in the output. Default: 2048. Range: 1 to 2048.
messages*: A structured array containing the conversation history. Each object includes a role and content.
role: The role of the participant in the conversation. Must be system, user, or assistant.
content: Your content string, which can be a string or an array of objects. If it's an array, each object must have a type and corresponding data, as shown in the example below.
text: Referenced inside content arrays, containing the text message to be sent.

Here is an example of a cURL request using the following format:

curl --location --request POST 'https://api.thehive.ai/api/v3/chat/completions' \
--header 'authorization: Bearer <API_KEY>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "model": "meta-llama/llama-3.2-1b-instruct",
    "max_tokens": 1000,
    "messages": [
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": "Explain the concept of reinforcement learning."
        }
    ]
}'

Response

To see example API responses for these models, you can visit their respective API playgrounds, which contain additional documentation.

LEGACY -- V2 Request Format

Below are the input fields for an LLM cURL request. The asterisk (*) next to an input field designates that it is required.

Input FieldTypeDefinition
text_data*stringThe main text prompt. This describes what the text response should include.
callback_url*stringWhen the task is completed, we will send a callback from our servers to this callback url.
system_promptstringString that provides context for how the model should respond to all requests.
prompt_historyProvides the chat history in chronological order, where the last item is the most recent chat. Each item needs to be a dictionary with the keys "content" and "role".
top_pfloatA value between 0 and 1. If the value is 0, requests should be more diverse than when set to a higher value.
temperaturefloatA value between 0 and 1. If this value is 0, a repeated request should yield the same response. If this value is 1, a repeated request should yield different responses.
max_tokensintThis is the maximum token window that you want for your model completion output.

Here is an example of a cURL request using the following format:

curl --location 'https://api.thehive.ai/api/v2/task/async' \
--header 'Authorization: Token <YOUR_API_KEY>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "text_data": "<YOUR_PROMPT>",
    "callback_url": "<YOUR_CALLBACK_URL>",
    "options": {
        "system_prompt": "<YOUR_SYSTEM_PROMPT>",
        "prompt_history": "<YOUR_PROMPT_HISTORY>",
        "top_p": <YOUR_TOP_P>,
        "temperature": <YOUR_TEMPERATURE>,
        "max_tokens": <YOUR_MAX_TOKENS>
    }
}'

Response

After making an LLM cURL request, you will receive a text response. To see another example API request and response for this model, along with detailed information about the parameters, you can visit our API reference page.
