MiniMax M2.7 API — OpenAI-Compatible Access

How to call MiniMax M2.7 via the OpenAI-compatible SDK — no new SDK required.

Why / When to Use

Use when building an app that calls MiniMax M2.7 (or M2.7-highspeed) and you want to reuse existing OpenAI SDK knowledge. Supports together.ai as a managed alternative.

Core Concept / Commands

Via OpenAI SDK (recommended)

import OpenAI from "openai";
 
const client = new OpenAI({
  baseURL: "https://api.minimax.io/v1",
  apiKey: process.env.MINIMAX_API_KEY,
});
 
const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "minimax-m2.7",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Your prompt here" }],
  temperature: 0.7,
  max_tokens: 4096,
});

Via Together AI (managed infra alternative)

// base URL: https://api.together.xyz/v1/chat/completions
// model string: MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.7

Key Options / Variants

Recommended parameters for best performance:

• temperature: 1.0
• top_p: 0.95
• top_k: 40

Gotchas
