PipesHub allows you to integrate with MiniMax's language models to enable AI features in your workspace. MiniMax offers high-performance models with strong multilingual capabilities and efficient inference.

## Required Fields

### API Key \*

The API Key is required to authenticate your requests to MiniMax's services.

**How to obtain an API Key:**

1. Log in to the [MiniMax Platform](https://platform.minimaxi.com/)
2. Navigate to the "API Keys" section in your account settings
3. Create a new API key
4. Copy the generated API key

**Security Note:** Your API key should be kept secure and never shared publicly. PipesHub securely stores your API key and uses it only for authenticating requests to MiniMax.

### Model Name \*

The Model Name field defines which MiniMax model you want to use with PipesHub.

**Popular MiniMax models include:**

* `MiniMax-M2.7` - MiniMax's latest flagship model with strong reasoning and instruction-following capabilities
* `MiniMax-M2.7-highspeed` - A faster variant of M2.7 optimised for lower latency use cases

**How to choose a model:**

* For best quality and complex tasks, select `MiniMax-M2.7`
* For faster responses where speed matters more than maximum quality, select `MiniMax-M2.7-highspeed`
* Check MiniMax's [model documentation](https://platform.minimaxi.com/document) for the most up-to-date options

## Configuration Steps

As shown in the image above:

1. Click **Configure** on the MiniMax provider card
2. Enter your MiniMax API Key in the designated field (marked with \*)
3. Specify your desired Model Name (marked with \*)
4. Click **Add Model** to save and validate your credentials

> Both the API Key and Model Name are required fields to successfully configure MiniMax integration.

## Usage Considerations

* API usage will count against your MiniMax account's quota and billing
* Different models have different pricing — check MiniMax's pricing page for details
* MiniMax models provide:
  * Strong multilingual understanding and generation
  * Efficient inference with competitive latency
  * High-quality instruction-following across a range of tasks

## Troubleshooting

* If you encounter authentication errors, verify your API key is correct and has not expired
* Ensure your MiniMax account has billing set up if you are on a paid tier
* Check that the model name is spelled correctly and matches MiniMax's naming conventions (names are case-sensitive)
* Verify that your API key has access to the specific model you have selected
