Use Open WebUI with Bridge

In short: In Open WebUI, add an OpenAI API connection with Bridge's URL and your Bridge key, and keep the API type on Chat Completions. Every Bridge model then appears in the model picker, so your team can chat with GPT, Claude, Gemini and more, billed in naira.

In the admin panel

  1. Open the admin settings and go to Connections, then manage OpenAI API connections and add one.
  2. URL: https://wekoya-api.wekoya.tech/v1. API Key: your Bridge key.
  3. Keep the API type on Chat Completions, verify the connection and save.

Or by environment variables

OPENAI_API_BASE_URL="https://wekoya-api.wekoya.tech/v1"
OPENAI_API_KEY="wk_live_..."

Open WebUI saves its settings after the first start, and the saved values then win over environment variables. To change a connection later, use the admin panel.

Common questions

Why did my environment variable change do nothing?

Open WebUI keeps its configuration in its database after the first start, and that wins. Edit the connection in the admin panel instead.
