Manage an LLM provider template

This guide shows how to create an LLM provider from a template, and how to edit, enable, disable, and delete templates.

Use a template to create a provider

When adding an LLM provider:

  1. Pick a template from the template picker. Custom templates appear alongside the built-in ones.

  2. If the template has more than one version, select the version you want and click Continue. If there is only one version, it is selected for you.

  3. Enter the provider name and credentials. The provider takes its endpoint, authentication, and token mappings from the selected template version.

Warning

A provider created from a custom template only works after the template is deployed to the gateway that serves the provider.

Edit a template

You can only edit custom templates; built-in templates are read-only. There are two ways to make a change:

Editing a template version doesn't affect the providers already created from it. A provider copies the template configuration at creation time, so template changes apply only to providers created afterward.

Enable or disable a template

You can turn a built-in template version on or off from the template's Overview tab.

  • Only built-in templates can be enabled or disabled. To remove a custom template, delete it instead.
  • A version can't be disabled while a provider is using it.
  • Disabled templates appear dimmed in the listing, and you can't create providers from them.

Delete a template

To remove a custom template version:

  1. Navigate to Settings > LLM Provider Templates and open the template.
  2. Pick the version you want to remove from the version selector.
  3. Click Delete and confirm.

Deletion is blocked while in use

You can't delete a template version while a provider created from it still exists. The console shows the error Cannot delete: one or more providers were created from this template. Delete those providers first, then try again.

Deleting the last remaining version removes the whole template.
