## How do I call the Gemini API through Outrun?

Gemini text models on Outrun use the OpenAI Chat Completions format, so the OpenAI SDKs and any OpenAI-compatible app work with your Outrun key and base URL.

1. 01
  ### Get your key
  Open the Telegram bot and copy your personal key. It works for Gemini and every other Outrun model.
2. 02
  ### Set the base URL
  Use `https://api.outrun.to/v1` exactly as shown, without `/chat/completions`.
3. 03
  ### Send a Gemini model ID
  Put the full ID, such as `gemini-3.8-flash`, in the `model` field.

**POST**/v1/chat/completions

```
curl https://api.outrun.to/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OUTRUN_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "gemini-3.8-flash",
    "messages": [
      {"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}
    ]
  }'
```

Swap the model

Keep your key in an environment variable, never in client-side code.
