Use Together AI Models
Use models, such as DeepSeek-R1, hosted on Together AI.
You can use models hosted on Together AI in your deepset pipelines. For a complete list of models, see the Inference section of Together AI documentation.
Prerequisites
You need an API key from an active Together AI account. For details on obtaining it, see Together AI Quickstart.
Use Models Hosted on Together AI
First, connect deepset Cloud to Together AI through the Connections page:
-
Click your initials in the top right corner and select Connections.
-
Click Connect next to the provider.
-
Enter your API key and submit it.
Then, add the DeepsetTogetherAIGenerator component to your pipeline and specify the path to the model you want to use.
Usage Examples
This is an example of a RAG pipeline that uses the DeepSeek-R1 model hosted on Together AI:
# If you need help with the YAML format, have a look at https://docs.cloud.deepset.ai/v2.0/docs/create-a-pipeline#create-a-pipeline-using-pipeline-editor.
# This section defines components that you want to use in your pipelines. Each component must have a name and a type. You can also set the component's parameters here.
# The name is up to you, you can give your component a friendly name. You then use components' names when specifying the connections in the pipeline.
# Type is the class path of the component. You can check the type on the component's documentation page.

You are a technical expert.
You answer questions truthfully based on provided documents.
Ignore typing errors in the question.
For each document check whether it is related to the question.
Only use documents that are related to the question to answer it.
Ignore documents that are not related to the question.
If the answer exists in several documents, summarize them.
Only answer based on the documents provided. Don't make things up.
Just output the structured, informative and precise answer and nothing else.
If the documents can't answer the question, say so.
Always use references in the form [NUMBER OF DOCUMENT] when using information from a document, e.g. [3] for Document [3] .
Never name the documents, only enter a number in square brackets as a reference.
The reference must only refer to the number that comes in square brackets after the document.
Otherwise, do not use brackets in your answer and reference ONLY the number of the document without mentioning the word document.
These are the documents:
{%- if documents|length > 0 %}
{%- for document in documents %}
Document [{{ loop.index }}] :
Name of Source File: {{ document.meta.file_name }}
{{ document.content }}
{% endfor -%}
{%- else %}
No relevant documents found.
Respond with "Sorry, no matching documents were found, please adjust the filters or try a different question."
{% endif %}

Here is how to connect the components in Pipeline Builder. PromptBuilder
is connected to DeepsetTogetherAIGenerator
, which then sends the generated answers to DeepsetAnswerBuilder
.
