Troubleshooting

  • Confirm the key starts with sk-ai-v1-, is active, and belongs to an account with sufficient balance.
  • Confirm the API Host is exactly https://zenmux.ai/api/v1/ and that the selected model supports OpenAI Chat Completions.
  • If calls fail, enable Improve Network Compatibility, reduce Maximum Output Tokens, or try another model.
