# Set your LLM API key
# Configure your API key
You have two ways to input your LLM API key.
An API key is required for RAGFlow to interact with an online AI model. This guide provides information about setting your API key in RAGFlow.
## Before Starting The System
## Get your API key
In **user_default_llm** of [service_conf.yaml](https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow/blob/main/docker/service_conf.yaml), you need to specify LLM factory and your own _API_KEY_.
RAGFlow supports the flowing LLMs, with more coming in the pipeline:
For now, RAGFlow supports the following online LLMs. Clik the corresponding link to apply for your API key. Most LLM providers grant newly-created accounts trial credit, which will expire in a couple of months, or a promotional amount of free quota.

After sign in these LLM suppliers, create your own API-Key, they all have a certain amount of free quota.
:::note
If you find your online LLM is not on the list, don't feel disheartened. The list is expanding, and you can [file a feature request](https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow/issues/new?assignees=&labels=feature+request&projects=&template=feature_request.yml&title=%5BFeature+Request%5D%3A+) with us! Alternatively, if you have customized models or have locally-deployed models, you can [bind them to RAGFlow using Ollama or Xinference](./deploy_local_llm.md).
