# Parallel

[Parallel ↗](https://parallel.ai/) is a web API purpose-built for AIs, providing production-ready outputs with minimal hallucination and evidence-based results.

## Endpoint

```
https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/parallel
```

## URL structure

When making requests to Parallel, you can route to any Parallel endpoint through AI Gateway by appending the path after `parallel`. For example, to access the Tasks API at `/v1/tasks/runs`, use:

```
https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/parallel/v1/tasks/runs
```

## Prerequisites

When making requests to Parallel, ensure you have the following:

* Your AI Gateway Account ID.
* Your AI Gateway gateway name.
* An active Parallel API key.

## Examples

### Tasks API

The [Tasks API ↗](https://docs.parallel.ai/task-api/task-quickstart) allows you to create comprehensive research and analysis tasks.

#### cURL example

Terminal window

```
curl https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/parallel/v1/tasks/runs \  --header 'x-api-key: {parallel_api_key}' \  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \  --data '{    "input": "Create a comprehensive market research report on the HVAC industry in the USA including an analysis of recent M&A activity and other relevant details.",    "processor": "ultra"  }'
```

### Search API

The [Search API ↗](https://docs.parallel.ai/search-api/search-quickstart) enables advanced search with configurable parameters.

#### cURL example

Terminal window

```
curl https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/parallel/v1beta/search \  --header 'x-api-key: {parallel_api_key}' \  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \  --data '{    "objective": "When was the United Nations established? Prefer UN'\''s websites.",    "search_queries": [      "Founding year UN",      "Year of founding United Nations"    ],    "processor": "base",    "max_results": 10,    "max_chars_per_result": 6000  }'
```

## Chat API

The [Chat API ↗](https://docs.parallel.ai/chat-api/chat-quickstart) is supported through AI Gateway's Unified Chat Completions API. See below for more details:

## OpenAI-Compatible Endpoint

You can also access Parallel models using the OpenAI API schema through the [REST API](https://developers.cloudflare.com/ai-gateway/usage/rest-api/). Send your requests to:

```
https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/{account_id}/ai/v1/chat/completions
```

Specify:

```
{"model": "parallel/{model}"}
```

#### JavaScript SDK example

JavaScript

```
import OpenAI from "openai";
const apiKey = "{parallel_api_key}";const accountId = "{account_id}";const gatewayId = "{gateway_id}";const baseURL = `https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/${accountId}/${gatewayId}/compat`;
const client = new OpenAI({  apiKey,  baseURL,});
try {  const model = "parallel/speed";  const messages = [{ role: "user", content: "Hello!" }];  const chatCompletion = await client.chat.completions.create({    model,    messages,  });  const response = chatCompletion.choices[0].message;  console.log(response);} catch (e) {  console.error(e);}
```

### FindAll API

The [FindAll API ↗](https://docs.parallel.ai/findall-api/findall-quickstart) enables structured data extraction from complex queries.

#### cURL example

Terminal window

```
curl https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/parallel/v1beta/findall/ingest \  --header 'x-api-key: {parallel_api_key}' \  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \  --data '{    "query": "Find all AI companies that recently raised money and get their website, CEO name, and CTO name."  }'
```
