After installation of the connector, the Omni AI icon will appear in the left-side navigation panel of Akeneo, as shown in the image below.

The connector allows adding and managing multiple AI credentials. Multiple credentials can be created for the same AI platform, each with a unique name for easy identification.

Credentials include the API key, selected AI platform, and model.

Note: AI responses are generated using the credential selected at the time of execution.

1. Navigate and click on Omni AI icon in the Akeneo admin panel.
2. Click on Credentials.
3. Click Add Credential.

1. Enter the Credential Name.
2. Enter the API Key.
3. Select the AI Platform.
4. Select the AI Model.
5. Click Save to successfully store the credential.

Once a credential is saved, it is activated by default and will be used for AI content generation.

If multiple credentials are available, administrators can change the default credential status at any time.

Only the credentials marked as status: Enabled will be used during AI execution, as shown in the credentials listing.

The screenshot demonstrates that the active credential is used for AI operations.

AI models are platform-specific and are fetched dynamically based on the selected AI platform and credentials.

Examples:

• OpenAI: GPT series models.
• Gemini: Gemini series models.
• Groq: LLaMA-based models like .

Note: Model performance, response speed, and output quality may vary depending on the selected AI platform, model, and external factors such as API limits.
