Mistral Guide

Use the Mistral provider when you have a Mistral API key and want to chat with Mistral-hosted models.

Add the connection

1. Open 3sparks Chat and go to Connections.
2. Tap + and choose Mistral.
3. Leave the name blank for a generated name, or enter your own.
4. Confirm the base URL is api.mistral.ai and the route prefix is /v1/.
5. Paste your Mistral API key into API Token. Tokens are stored in Keychain.
6. Tap Create Connection.
7. Tap Fetch Models, choose a default model, and tap Done.

Troubleshooting

• Verify the API key is active in the Mistral console.
• Check billing, quota, and rate limits if requests fail after setup.
• If the selected model becomes unavailable, use Switch Model in chat or fetch models again.
• Lower the token limit if a smaller model rejects long prompts or attachments.
