DeepSeek Integration ​

DeepSeek is an alternative AI provider that you can connect using your own API key. Unlike OpenAI, using DeepSeek does not consume the tokens included in your Interflow plan — billing is handled directly by DeepSeek, on your own account.

PAYMENT REQUIRED

You must add credits/payment method to your DeepSeek account to use the API, which works on a token-based usage model.

How to get a DeepSeek API key ​

  1. Go to the DeepSeek platform and log in to your account (or create a new one)
  2. Navigate to "API Keys" in the dashboard menu
  3. Click "Create new API key", give it a name to identify it (e.g., "Interflow") and add a payment method
  4. Copy the generated key and paste it in Interflow

WARNING

You will only be able to see the key once after creation. Save it in a secure location before closing the window.

Configure in Interflow ​

You can register your DeepSeek key in two ways:

Option 1: From the Integrations screen ​

  1. In Interflow, go to Settings → Integrations
  2. Click "Add DeepSeek"
  3. Give the integration a title and paste your API key
  4. Click Validate and then Save

Option 2: Directly from the Prompt form ​

  1. When creating or editing an AI Agent, open the Integration field
  2. Select "+ Add DeepSeek"
  3. Fill in the title and API key, validate, and save
  4. The newly created integration is automatically selected for the current prompt

PRICING SOURCE

Thinking Mode (reasoning) ​

Both models support an optional chain-of-thought reasoning mode called Thinking Mode. When a DeepSeek model is selected in the prompt, the form shows a dedicated control:

  • Enable/disable Thinking Mode
  • Reasoning effort: High or Maximum

With Thinking Mode enabled, temperature is ignored — this is a limitation of the DeepSeek API itself, which doesn't allow combining chain-of-thought reasoning with temperature control.

Where the DeepSeek model can be used ​

Once you've configured the integration and selected a DeepSeek model in your prompt, it's automatically used in:

  • Your flows' AI Agent
  • Test Prompt (inside the prompt editing screen)
  • Improve Text (when the associated prompt uses DeepSeek)
