Connect to Model and Service Providers

Connect deepset Cloud to model or service providers, such as Hugging Face, Open AI, Cohere, or Unstructured. This is recommended if you want to use a model by one of these providers or a data processing service.

About This Task

Each connection creates an environment variable with a predefined name for storing the API key. If you connect deepset Cloud with a model or service provider, you no longer need to pass api_key in your pipelines when using a model or data processing service from this provider.

Currently, on the Connections page you can set up connections with the following model providers:

  • Amazon Bedrock and SageMaker
  • Azure OpenAI
  • Cohere
  • Google AI
  • Hugging Face (only needed for private models hosted there)
  • Nvidia
  • OpenAI
  • SearchAPI
  • Voyage AI

Supported connections to data processing services and data sources are:

  • Azure Document Intelligence
  • DeepL
  • Snowflake
  • unstructured.io
