# Z.AI
Z.AI is the API platform for GLM models. It provides REST APIs for GLM and uses API keys for authentication. Create your API key in the Z.AI console. OpenSoul uses the zai provider with a Z.AI API key.
# CLI setup
bash
opensoul onboard --auth-choice zai-api-key
# or non-interactive
opensoul onboard --zai-api-key "$ZAI_API_KEY"# Config snippet

env: { ZAI_API_KEY: "sk-..." },

}# Notes
- GLM models are available as
zai/<model>(example:zai/glm-4.7). - See /providers/glm for the model family overview.
- Z.AI uses Bearer auth with your API key.
