How to integrate RouterLink in TypingMind
Overview
This tutorial guides you through integrating RouterLinkโWORLD3's decentralized AI model routing infrastructureโwith TypingMind, a professional AI chat interface platform.
Purpose
RouterLink provides a unified API endpoint that routes requests to multiple AI model providers through a decentralized network. By integrating RouterLink with TypingMind, you gain access to a diverse range of large language models (LLMs) without managing multiple API keys or provider-specific configurations.
What You Will Learn
By completing this tutorial, you will:
Configure TypingMind to connect with RouterLink's API endpoint
Authenticate using your RouterLink API credentials with custom headers
Add and manage AI models available through the RouterLink network
Execute inference requests through TypingMind's conversational interface
Prerequisites
Before proceeding, ensure you have:
A RouterLink API key (obtain one from the Quick Start Guide)
A web browser with internet access
Basic familiarity with API configuration concepts
Introduction to TypingMind

TypingMind is a professional, customizable chat interface (UI) that enables users to interact with multiple large language models (LLMs) such as GPT, Claude, and Gemini from a single platform. It offers enhanced features for organizing conversations, managing prompts, uploading documents for context (RAG), and building custom AI agents.
Key features include:
Multi-provider model support with custom API configurations
Advanced prompt library and conversation management
Document upload capabilities for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
Options for personal use, team collaboration, and self-hosting for privacy
Step 1: Access TypingMind
Navigate to https://www.typingmind.com/ and authenticate using your email address.


Step 2: Add a Custom Model
Click the Models icon in the left sidebar, then select "Add custom model".

For this tutorial, we will configure OpenAI's GPT-5.2 model via RouterLink.
Step 3: Retrieve Model Configuration from RouterLink

Visit the RouterLink model page at OpenAI's GPT 5.2 model to access the integration details.
In the Integration Guide section, locate the source code example and copy the model identifier.


Step 4: Configure Model Parameters
Enter the following configuration values in the TypingMind custom model form:

API Configuration Parameters
Model ID
world3-router-north-america/openai/gpt-5.2
API Endpoint
https://router-link.world3.ai/api/v1/chat/completions
Custom Headers Configuration
Expand the Advanced section to configure Custom Headers:
Authorization
Bearer <YOUR_API_KEY>
Content-Type
application/json
Validate Configuration
Click the "Test" button to verify the connection is working correctly.
Upon successful validation, the "Add Model" button will become active.

After adding the model, set
world3-router-north-america/openai/gpt-5.2as your default model for convenience.
Step 5: Initiate a Conversation
Click "Chats" in the top-left navigation area to access the conversation interface.

Verify that the newly added model
world3-router-north-america/openai/gpt-5.2is selected in the model dropdown at the bottom of the interface.

Enter your desired prompt to confirm the integration is functioning correctly.
Summary
You have successfully integrated RouterLink with TypingMind. You can now:
Send prompts to various AI models through RouterLink's decentralized routing network
Switch between different models available on the RouterLink platform
Leverage TypingMind's interface features while utilizing RouterLink's infrastructure
For advanced configuration options, model availability, and API documentation, visit the RouterLink Documentation.
Troubleshooting
Authentication failed
Verify your API key is correctly formatted with Bearer prefix (including the space)
Model not responding
Confirm the model ID matches the exact format from the RouterLink documentation
Connection timeout
Check your network connectivity and ensure the API endpoint URL is correct
Test button fails
Verify all custom headers are properly configured (Authorization and Content-Type)
