How to make requests to Gemini using the OpenAI SDK

Braintrust's unified AI Gateway enables developers to access Google's Gemini models using the OpenAI SDK, facilitating seamless integration without modifying existing codebases. By pointing the OpenAI client to Braintrust's gateway URL and using a Braintrust API key, requests are translated into Gemini's API format and returned in the standard OpenAI structure. This allows teams to leverage Gemini's long context windows, multimodal input support, and competitive pricing without the need for a separate SDK or extensive migration work. The gateway also supports logging and caching features, which track request details and store responses for repeated use, enhancing development efficiency. Furthermore, Braintrust's platform supports integration with multiple AI and cloud model providers, enabling teams to standardize on a single SDK and easily switch between models by changing the model name in the request. This centralized approach keeps provider API keys within Braintrust's organization settings, maintaining security and simplifying provider management.
