To add an AI connection on Promptitude, get an API key from your chosen AI provider (such as OpenAI or Anthropic), then go to Settings > AI Connections, click New Connection, select your provider, paste your API key, and click Test & Save. The entire process takes just a few minutes.
🔔 Prerequisite:
An account with a supported AI provider and a valid API key.
You access AI connections from Settings > AI Connections in the main menu.
Supported providers include OpenAI, Anthropic, GoogleAI, Perplexity, and others.
Cloud providers like Microsoft Azure, Amazon Bedrock, and Hugging Face require an Enterprise plan.
Most providers use pay-as-you-go billing — fund your provider account before connecting.
New connections are active by default; you can deactivate them later if needed.
How do you get your provider's API key?
Before connecting to Promptitude, you need an API key from your AI provider. An API key is a unique code that lets Promptitude communicate with the provider on your behalf.
Create an account with your chosen AI provider (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, GoogleAI, Perplexity).
Navigate to the API key section of your provider's dashboard. The exact location varies by provider.
Generate a new API key and copy it somewhere safe — you'll paste it into Promptitude in the next step.
Fund your provider account. Most providers use a pay-as-you-go model. Make sure you have credit loaded before testing your connection.
Provider-specific guides:
📌 If you see an error later during "Test & Save": double-check that your API key is correct, has not expired, and that your provider account has available credit.
How do you access AI connections settings?
Log in to your Promptitude account.
Click Settings in the main menu.
Select the AI Connections tab.
You'll see a list of any existing connections and the option to add a new one.
How do you add a new AI connection?
Click the New Connection button.
Select your AI provider from the list (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, GoogleAI).
Paste the API key you copied earlier into the API key field.
Click Test & Save.
Expected result: A confirmation message appears, and your provider is now connected. You're ready to create your first prompt.
If the test fails:
Verify the API key is pasted correctly with no extra spaces.
Confirm your provider account is active and funded.
Try generating a new API key from your provider and re-entering it.
How do you set up AI cloud providers and serverless?
Connecting cloud-based AI providers — Microsoft Azure, Amazon Bedrock, or Hugging Face — requires an Enterprise plan on Promptitude. These options are designed for larger-scale operations and serverless deployments.

How do you manage connection status?
🔸 Activating and deactivating
New connections are active by default. Your prompts can use them immediately.
To deactivate a connection: you can only do so if it has no dependencies — meaning it isn't linked to any default settings, prompts, or assistants. Resolve those dependencies first before deactivating.
🔸 Reactivating
You can reactivate a deactivated connection at any time. However, only chats can be fully reactivated. If you modified the AI connection after deactivating, you won't be able to reset default settings or prompts to the original connection.
🔸 Deactivating or deleting
All prompts using that connection inside Promptitude.
All prompts integrated externally via the Promptitude API Key.
Any change in connection status can disrupt integrations that rely on the Promptitude API Key, so proceed carefully.
Once your AI connection is established, managing it is simple. Promptitude allows you to manage all your prompts and providers in one place, streamlining your workflow and enhancing productivity.
