Overview

The "List Traits" operation under the "Model" resource in this node fetches and returns a list of traits associated with Venice AI models. This allows users to explore characteristics or capabilities of different AI models available through the Venice AI service. It is useful when you want to understand model features before selecting one for tasks like chat completions, image generation, embeddings, or text-to-speech.

Practical examples:

  • Retrieve traits of all available models to decide which model fits your use case.
  • Filter traits by model type (e.g., text, image) to find specialized models.
  • Use the traits information to dynamically adjust workflows based on model capabilities.

Properties

Name Meaning
Model Type The category of models to filter traits by. Options: All, Text, Image, Embedding, TTS, Upscale

Output

The output is a JSON object containing the traits of models filtered by the selected model type. The structure corresponds to the response from the Venice AI API endpoint /models/traits. It typically includes details describing various model traits relevant to the chosen category.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Example output structure (conceptual):

{
  "traits": [
    {
      "name": "trait_name",
      "description": "Description of the trait",
      "applicableModels": ["model1", "model2"]
    },
    ...
  ]
}

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Venice AI API.
  • Requires an API key credential configured in n8n for authenticating requests to Venice AI.
  • The node uses internal helper functions to make HTTP requests to Venice AI endpoints.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issue: No traits returned or empty response.
    • Ensure the API key credential is valid and has access to the Venice AI service.
    • Verify that the selected model type is correct; "All" returns all traits, but specific types may return fewer results.
  • Error message: No binary data property "..." found
    • Not applicable for this operation since it does not handle binary data.
  • Network errors or timeouts
    • Check network connectivity and API endpoint availability.
    • Confirm that rate limits are not exceeded on the Venice AI API side.
