Start using Claude Sonnet 5.5

  1. step 01

    Get a key for Claude Sonnet 5.5

    Create an API key in your account and keep it on your server. Add funds, then choose a small evaluation task with a result you can independently check.

    Open
  2. step 02

    Call Claude Sonnet 5.5

    Send claude-sonnet-5-5 to https://reapi.ai/api/v1/messages with your conversation and output budget. Start from the documented example before adding tools or more detailed output requirements.

    Open
  3. step 03

    Review your Claude Sonnet 5.5 result

    Run the suggested test, verify the source citation, or inspect the returned record. Save successful prompts with their evaluation criteria before extending the workflow to additional requests.

    Open
docs/api/claude-sonnet-5-5

API reference

Drop-in code and the full parameter table.

curl --no-buffer --request POST \
  --url https://reapi.ai/api/v1/messages \
  --header "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
  "model": "claude-sonnet-5-5",
  "messages": [
    {
      "role": "user",
      "content": "Explain this design clearly."
    }
  ],
  "max_tokens": 4096,
  "output_config": {
    "effort": "high"
  },
  "stream": true
}'

Read the full response

Check stop_reason and all content blocks. Thinking uses output tokens, and a successful HTTP response may still contain an incomplete answer.

Check authentication

Use your active reAPI key and a funded account. The API docs explain headers and token billing.

Preserve tool history

Return tool results with their matching IDs and keep the previous assistant content, including signed thinking blocks.

Inspect upstream errors

Parameters pass through to the upstream service. Follow the returned error information and keep the request ID for diagnosis.

Frequently asked questions
