After completing login in the browser, return to Chat2API, the system will automatically obtain authentication information.

Method 2: JWT Token Authentication

Usage Limits

200 free credits daily
Note conversation limits, unable to continue when credits are exhausted

MiniMax's conversation implementation differs from other providers, using a polling mechanism to get responses. Therefore, response speed may be slower, and conversation failures may occur. If you encounter issues, please retry later or switch to another provider.

Troubleshooting

401 Authentication Failed

New accounts may not work with standard JWT authentication. Solutions:

Get both _token and realUserID
Enter them separately in the corresponding fields in Chat2API

Token Expired

MiniMax tokens may expire. If authentication errors occur:

Re-login to MiniMax Agent website
Get new _token and realUserID
Update in Chat2API
