Where: Home → AI assistant → Connecting OpenRouter
Open this page: admin.<your-site>/ai/openrouter/callback (replace <your-site> with your site address)
Before you start
- Only the owner can connect OpenRouter. A free OpenRouter account is enough for free models.
Steps
- Open AI assistant. Find OpenRouter: your own AI account.
- Tap Connect OpenRouter. You sign in at openrouter.ai and come straight back.
- You see "Connecting OpenRouter", then "OpenRouter is connected". Choose a model and start a task.
- If one-click connect is not available, tap Paste a key instead and paste your key, then Save key.
- Use Choose model to set the default for new tasks.
- Tap Disconnect to remove the key from your server.
Good to know
- Your key is kept only on your server and never shown again. Keynate never sees it.
- The card shows your free requests today and credit left when OpenRouter reports them.
- One-click connect needs your admin on its own https address.
Common problems
- "OpenRouter couldn’t be connected. Go back and click Connect OpenRouter again." The sign-in did not finish. Go back and connect again.
- "OpenRouter doesn’t accept this key any more." The key was revoked. Connect again or paste a new key.
