Regions and Base URL - Codeflare

Get the regional URL

Choose a region in the console header and copy the endpoint on the . YOUR-REGION.example is a placeholder and cannot serve requests. The documentation site’s location is unrelated to the API region.

Client or protocol	Example configuration
OpenAI Python / JavaScript SDK, Codex CLI	`https://YOUR-REGION.example/v1`
Anthropic SDK, Claude Code	`https://YOUR-REGION.example`
Native Gemini request	`https://YOUR-REGION.example/v1beta/models/MODEL_ID:generateContent`

The OpenAI SDK appends resource paths to its Base URL. Avoid duplicated paths such as /v1/v1/responses. Remove the final /v1 for the Anthropic SDK and Claude Code. Build Gemini /v1beta paths from the gateway root.

Switching and latency

Selecting a region changes which URL you copy; it does not update an already running application. Update the application configuration before making new calls. Account preferences store signed-in users’ selections; browser storage stores guest selections.

A manually selected region does not silently fail over to another region. Query, continue, and cancel an existing Responses request through its original region. Check its result before deciding to generate again.

Latency probes measure the entry point, not model generation speed or a service guarantee. Use the console’s current region configuration as the source of truth.
