Integrating Flowise with HPC-AI Tech

Flowise is a visual low-code platform for building LLM applications and AI workflows using drag-and-drop components. By integrating Flowise with the HPC-AI Tech Model APIs platform, you can power your workflows with high-performance models like MiniMax-M2.5 through a unified OpenAI-compatible API.

In this guide, we'll walk you through how to integrate Flowise with HPC-AI Tech so you can start building AI workflows in minutes.

🚀 Prerequisites

Before we dive in, make sure you have:

  • Flowise installed or deployed

  • An HPC-AI Tech API Key (from the Model APIs platform)

🛠️ Configuration: Choose Your Method

Flowise offers multiple ways to configure model providers depending on your workflow. Pick what suits you best.

Method 1: Interactive Configuration (Recommended)

Best for developers using the Flowise interface.

Open Flowise.

Create or edit a flow.

Add an OpenAI Chat Model node.

Configure the following:

Base URL

https://api.hpc-ai.com/inference/v1

API Key

your-hpc-ai-api-key

Select the model:

minimax/minimax-m2.5

(You can replace this with any model available on the HPC-AI Tech Model APIs platform.)

Save your workflow.

Method 2: Config File (The Structured Way)

Best for self-hosted deployments and team environments.

Configure your provider:

provider: openai
base_url: https://api.hpc-ai.com/inference/v1
api_key: ${HPC_AI_API_KEY}
model: minimax/minimax-m2.5

Using environment variables for API credentials is recommended.

Method 3: Environment Variables (The Lightweight Way)

Best for Docker deployments or local development.

export HPC_AI_API_KEY="sk-your-hpc-ai-api-key"
export OPENAI_API_BASE="https://api.hpc-ai.com/inference/v1"

Then configure your OpenAI Chat Model node to use:

minimax/minimax-m2.5

as the active model.

✅ Verifying the Connection

After configuration, it's important to confirm everything is working correctly.

  • Run a sample Flowise workflow

  • Submit a test prompt

  • Ensure responses are returned successfully from the model

A successful response confirms:

  • Your API key is valid

  • The endpoint is reachable

  • The model is correctly configured

🎯 Summary

By integrating Flowise with HPC-AI Tech, you unlock:

  • Access to multiple leading AI models

  • OpenAI-compatible APIs

  • Cost-efficient inference

  • Visual AI workflow development

  • Production-ready infrastructure

Whether you're building AI chatbots, RAG pipelines, workflow automation, or enterprise AI solutions, HPC-AI Tech provides the flexibility and performance needed to power your applications.

Happy building!
