Access Ling / Ring on ZenMux

If you already use ZenMux to uniformly manage multiple large models (authentication, quota, audit, grayscale), you can add Ant Ling as an upstream provider; the application side still uses OpenAI SDK (or OpenAI compatible HTTP) calling method.

This article is divided into two parts:

Platform side (ZenMux): Configure Ant Ling as upstream in ZenMux, and create an external access credential for the business
Business side (Application): Point base_url to ZenMux, call ling / ming / ring respectively

What You Need to Prepare

ZenMux gateway’s external address (example: https://zenmux.ai/api/v1)
API Key issued by ZenMux for the business (example: ZENMUX_API_KEY)

Call Ling

OpenAI：Python


from openai import OpenAI
 
client = OpenAI(
  base_url="https://zenmux.ai/api/v1",
  api_key="<ZENMUX_API_KEY>",
)
 
# Chat Completion
completion = client.chat.completions.create(
  model="inclusionai/ling-2.6-flash",
  messages=[
    {
      "role": "user",
      "content": "What is the meaning of life?"
    }
  ]
)
print(completion.choices[0].message.content)

OpenAI：cURL


# Chat Completion
curl https://zenmux.ai/api/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $ZENMUX_API_KEY" \
-d '{
  "model": "inclusionai/ling-2.6-flash",
  "messages": [ 
    { 
      "role": "user",
      "content": "What is the meaning of life?"
    }
  ]
}'

# Responses API
curl https://zenmux.ai/api/v1/responses \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $ZENMUX_API_KEY" \
-d '{
  "model": "inclusionai/ling-2.6-flash",
  "input": "What is the meaning of life?"
}'

Anthropic：Python


import anthropic
client = anthropic.Anthropic(
    api_key="<ZENMUX_API_KEY>", 
    base_url="https://zenmux.ai/api/anthropic"
)
message = client.messages.create(
    model="inclusionai/ling-2.6-flash",
    max_tokens=1024,
    messages=[
      {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"}
    ]
)
print(message.content)

Anthropic：cURL


curl https://zenmux.ai/api/anthropic/v1/messages \
  --header "x-api-key: $ZENMUX_API_KEY" \
  --header "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01" \
  --header "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{ 
    "model": "inclusionai/ling-2.6-flash", 
    "max_tokens": 1024,
    "messages": [
      {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, world"}
    ]
  }'

Call Ring (Reasoning / Math / Code)

Ring is more suitable for complex reasoning, math, and code tasks. For the business side, the calling method is the same as Ling, the key is selecting the appropriate model name:

OpenAI：Python


from openai import OpenAI
 
client = OpenAI(
  base_url="https://zenmux.ai/api/v1",
  api_key="<ZENMUX_API_KEY>",
)
 
# Chat Completion
completion = client.chat.completions.create(
  model="inclusionai/ring-2.6-1t",
  messages=[
    {
      "role": "user",
      "content": "What is the meaning of life?"
    }
  ]
)
print(completion.choices[0].message.content)

OpenAI：cURL


# Chat Completion
curl https://zenmux.ai/api/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $ZENMUX_API_KEY" \
-d '{
  "model": "inclusionai/ring-2.6-1t",
  "messages": [ 
    { 
      "role": "user",
      "content": "What is the meaning of life?"
    }
  ]
}'

Anthropic：Python


import anthropic
client = anthropic.Anthropic(
    api_key="<ZENMUX_API_KEY>", 
    base_url="https://zenmux.ai/api/anthropic"
)
message = client.messages.create(
    model="inclusionai/ring-2.6-1t",
    max_tokens=1024,
    messages=[
      {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Claude"}
    ]
)
print(message.content)

Anthropic：cURL


curl https://zenmux.ai/api/anthropic/v1/messages \
  --header "x-api-key: $ZENMUX_API_KEY" \
  --header "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01" \
  --header "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{ 
    "model": "inclusionai/ring-2.6-1t", 
    "max_tokens": 1024,
    "messages": [
      {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, world"}
    ]
  }'

FAQ

What model name should I fill in?

Use the model ID displayed on the ZenMux platform , e.g., inclusionai/ling-2.6-1t, inclusionai/ling-2.6-flash, inclusionai/ring-2.6-1t, etc.

How to troubleshoot 401/403?

Confirm you are using ZenMux’s key (not Ant Ling’s key)
Confirm ZenMux’s key has been authorized to access the corresponding route/model
On platform side, confirm ZenMux’s upstream key for accessing Ant Ling is still valid and has sufficient quota
