Anthropic Python SDK Integration

Use Anthropic’s Python SDK to integrate with Helicone to log your Anthropic LLM usage.

Proxy Integration

1. Create an account + Generate an API Key

   Log into helicone or create an account. Once you have an account, you can generate an API key.

2. Set HELICONE_API_KEY as an environment variable

   export HELICONE_API_KEY=<your API key>
   

3. Modify the base path and add a Helicone-Auth header

   example.py

   import anthropic
   import os
   
   client = anthropic.Anthropic(
     api_key=os.environ.get("ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"),
     base_url="https://anthropic.helicone.ai",
     default_headers={
       "Helicone-Auth": f"Bearer {os.environ.get("HELICONE_API_KEY")}",
     },
   )
   
   client.messages.create(
     model="claude-3-opus-20240229",
     max_tokens=1024,
     messages=[
       {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, world"}
     ]
   )
