Provider: Mistral AI

Use Respan Gateway to call Mistral models (mistral-large-latest, mistral-small-latest, codestral-latest, pixtral-large-latest, and the rest) while keeping unified observability (logs, cost, latency, reliability) in Respan.

Quick setup

Send your first request

Pick the integration that matches your stack. The base URL is https://api.respan.ai/api and the only key needed is your RESPAN_API_KEY.

1
from mistralai import Mistral
2
3
client = Mistral(
4
    api_key="YOUR_RESPAN_API_KEY",
5
    server_url="https://api.respan.ai/api",
6
)
7
8
response = client.chat.complete(
9
    model="mistral-large-latest",
10
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, Mistral!"}],
11
)
12
print(response.choices[0].message.content)

More integrations

Mistral models work with every Respan gateway integration:

• OpenAI SDK
• Vercel AI SDK
• LangChain
• LlamaIndex
• Pydantic AI
• Respan native (OTel)

Switch models

Change the model parameter to call any supported model through the same client. Use the mistral/ prefix to disambiguate when routing across providers. Browse the full list on the Models page.

1
client.chat.completions.create(model="mistral/mistral-large-latest", messages=messages)
2
client.chat.completions.create(model="mistral/mistral-small-latest", messages=messages)
3
client.chat.completions.create(model="mistral/codestral-latest", messages=messages)
4
client.chat.completions.create(model="openai/gpt-5.5", messages=messages)
5
client.chat.completions.create(model="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5", messages=messages)

Use your own Mistral AI key (BYOK)

Credits are the default path. If you’d rather bill Mistral directly, attach your own provider key.

Override credentials per model (Optional)

Use credential_override when one model on a request should use a different Mistral key than the default.

1
{
2
  "customer_credentials": {
3
    "mistral": { "api_key": "YOUR_MISTRAL_API_KEY" }
4
  },
5
  "credential_override": {
6
    "mistral/mistral-large-latest": { "api_key": "ANOTHER_MISTRAL_API_KEY" }
7
  }
8
}

Log without proxying (Optional)

Already calling Mistral directly? Send logs to Respan asynchronously to track cost, latency, and performance for those external calls.

requests.post(

    "https://api.respan.ai/api/request-logs/create/",

    headers={

        "prompt_messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, how are you?"}],

        "completion_message": {"role": "assistant", "content": "Hello from Mistral through Respan."},

        "cost": 0.001,
