Install the official Groq SDK and configure API key authentication. Groq provides ultra-fast LLM inference on custom LPU hardware through an OpenAI-compatible REST API at api.groq.com/openai/v1/.

The Groq SDK auto-reads GROQ_API_KEY from environment if no apiKey is passed to the constructor. Additional constructor options:
const groq = new Groq({
apiKey: process.env.GROQ_API_KEY, // Optional if env var set
baseURL: "https://api.groq.com/openai/v1", // Default
maxRetries: 2, // Default retry count
timeout: 60_000, // 60 second timeout (ms)
});
| Prefix | Type | Usage |
|---|---|---|
gsk_ | Standard API key | All API endpoints |
Groq uses a single key type. There are no separate read/write scopes -- all keys have full API access. Restrict access through organizational controls in the console.
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
401 Invalid API Key | Key missing, revoked, or mistyped | Verify key at console.groq.com/keys |
MODULE_NOT_FOUND groq-sdk | SDK not installed | Run npm install groq-sdk |
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'groq' | Python SDK missing | Run pip install groq |
