Implements the OpenAI GA `/realtime/calls` contract: the request body is `multipart/form-data` with `sdp` (client SDP offer) and `session` (JSON session description containing `model`). Bifrost forwards the offer to the upstream provider, returns the upstream SDP answer to the client, and pipes RTP media between the two peers for the lifetime of the session. Inference auth applies (Bearer/Basic/Virtual Key/API Key). ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi/openapi.json post /v1/realtime/calls openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Bifrost API description: > Bifrost HTTP Transport API for AI model inference and gateway management. This API provides a unified interface for interacting with multiple AI providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock, Gemini, and more through a single API, along with comprehensive management APIs for configuring and monitoring the gateway. ## API Structure ### Unified Inference API (`/v1/*`) The primary API using Bifrost's unified format. Model parameters use the format `provider/model` (e.g., `openai/gpt-4`, `anthropic/claude-3-opus`). ### Async Inference API (`/v1/async/*`) Submit inference requests for asynchronous execution. Returns a job ID immediately and allows polling for results. Supports all inference types except batches, files, and containers. ### Provider Integration APIs Native provider-format APIs for drop-in compatibility: - `/openai/*` - OpenAI-compatible API - `/anthropic/*` - Anthropic-compatible API - `/genai/*` - Google GenAI (Gemini) compatible API - `/bedrock/*` - AWS Bedrock compatible API - `/cohere/*` - Cohere compatible API ### Framework Integration APIs Multi-provider proxy endpoints for AI frameworks: - `/litellm/*` - LiteLLM proxy with all provider formats - `/langchain/*` - LangChain compatible endpoints - `/pydanticai/*` - PydanticAI compatible endpoints ### Management APIs (`/api/*`) APIs for managing and monitoring the Bifrost gateway: - `/api/config` - Configuration management - `/api/providers` - Provider and API key management - `/api/plugins` - Plugin management - `/api/governance/*` - Virtual keys, teams, customers, budgets, rate limits, routing rules, and pricing overrides - `/api/logs` - Log search and analytics - `/api/mcp/*` - MCP (Model Context Protocol) client management - `/api/session/*` - Authentication and session management - `/api/cache/*` - Cache management - `/health` - Health check endpoint ## Fallbacks Requests can include fallback models that will be tried if the primary model fails. version: 1.0.0 contact: name: Contact Us url: https://getmaxim.ai/bifrost license: name: Apache 2.0 url: https://opensource.org/licenses/Apache-2.0 servers: - url: '{baseUrl}' description: Your Bifrost instance variables: baseUrl: default: http://localhost:8080 description: Base URL of your Bifrost instance (e.g. https://bifrost.mycompany.com) security: - BearerAuth: [] - BasicAuth: [] - ApiKeyAuth: [] tags: - name: Models description: Model listing and information - name: Chat Completions description: Chat-based text generation - name: Text Completions description: Text completion generation - name: Responses description: OpenAI Responses API compatible endpoints - name: OCR description: Optical character recognition for documents and images - name: Rerank description: Document reranking by relevance to a query - name: Embeddings description: Text embedding generation - name: Images description: Image generations, editing, and variations - name: Videos description: Video generation and management - name: Audio description: Speech synthesis and transcription - name: Count Tokens description: Token counting utilities - name: Batch description: Batch processing operations - name: Files description: File management operations - name: Containers description: Container management operations - name: Async Jobs description: Asynchronous job submission and retrieval endpoints - name: Realtime description: Realtime WebSocket and WebRTC endpoints - name: OpenAI Integration description: OpenAI-compatible API endpoints (/openai/*) - name: Azure Integration description: Azure OpenAI integration endpoints - name: Anthropic Integration description: Anthropic-compatible API endpoints (/anthropic/*) - name: GenAI Integration description: Google GenAI (Gemini) compatible API endpoints (/genai/*) - name: Bedrock Integration description: AWS Bedrock compatible API endpoints (/bedrock/*) - name: Cohere Integration description: Cohere compatible API endpoints (/cohere/*) - name: LiteLLM Integration description: LiteLLM proxy endpoints with multi-provider support (/litellm/*) - name: LangChain Integration description: LangChain compatible endpoints with multi-provider support (/langchain/*) - name: PydanticAI Integration description: >- PydanticAI compatible endpoints with multi-provider support (/pydanticai/*) - name: Health description: Health check endpoints - name: Configuration description: Configuration management endpoints - name: Session description: Session and authentication endpoints - name: Providers description: Provider management endpoints - name: Plugins description: Plugin management endpoints - name: MCP description: Model Context Protocol endpoints - name: Governance description: Virtual keys, teams, and customers management - name: Logging description: Log search and management endpoints - name: Cache description: Cache management endpoints paths: /v1/realtime/calls: post: tags: - Realtime summary: Realtime WebRTC SDP exchange description: > Negotiates a WebRTC peer connection with the realtime provider on behalf of the client.
