Sample code and API for Qwen Plus 0728 (thinking)

OpenRouter normalizes requests and responses across providers for you.

1

Get your API key

Create an API key from your OpenRouter dashboard and set it as an environment variable:

2

Make your first request

Use qwen/qwen-plus-2025-07-28:thinking with the OpenRouter API:

OpenRouter supports reasoning-enabled models that can show their step-by-step thinking process. Use the reasoning parameter in your request to enable reasoning, and access the reasoning_details array in the response to see the model's internal reasoning before the final answer. When continuing a conversation, preserve the complete reasoning_details when passing messages back to the model so it can continue reasoning from where it left off. Learn more about reasoning tokens.

In the examples below, the OpenRouter-specific headers are optional. Setting them allows your app to appear on the OpenRouter leaderboards.

Using third-party SDKs

For information about using third-party SDKs and frameworks with OpenRouter, please see our frameworks documentation.

Parameters

NameTypeDefaultDescription
reasoningmap—Controls reasoning behavior for models that support thinking tokens, including whether reasoning is enabled, the reasoning effort, maximum reasoning tokens, and whether reasoning is excluded from the response.
response_formatmap—Forces the model to produce specific output format.
max_tokensinteger—This sets the upper limit for the number of tokens the model can generate in response.
temperaturefloat1This setting influences the variety in the model's responses.
top_pfloat1This setting limits the model's choices to a percentage of likely tokens: only the top tokens whose probabilities add up to P.
seedinteger—If specified, the inferencing will sample deterministically, such that repeated requests with the same seed and parameters should return the same result.
presence_penaltyfloat0Adjusts how often the model repeats specific tokens already used in the input.
toolsarray—Tool calling parameter, following OpenAI's tool calling request shape.
tool_choicestring or object—Controls which (if any) tool is called by the model.
