Open WebUI base URL guide

Open WebUI workflows can grow expensive when requests loop or context gets large. The safest migration path is usually to point one client at a compatible base URL first. NexRelay keeps the first test small and reversible.

Why this setup works

A dedicated Open WebUI key keeps testing separate from production while NexRelay adds prepaid balance checks and request logs.

Recommended setup

Set the custom base URL, keep one API key for this tool, and test with a small prompt.

  • One key per Open WebUI workflow
  • Start with a small budget
  • Keep the model list narrow
  • Review the first log entry

What to verify

Check that the endpoint, model, and status all match what you expected before raising limits.

FAQ

Does a compatible base URL change the request format?

Usually no. Most clients keep the same request shape and only change the endpoint.

What should I test first?

Test one small request and inspect the log entry before widening access.
