Call an AI API in PHP

Calling an AI API from PHP takes a single HTTP request. Define your endpoint's behavior as a prompt on Svivva, then call it like any other JSON API from your PHP code.

PHP example

<?php
$ch = curl_init("https://your-endpoint.example/run");
curl_setopt_array($ch, [
  CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
  CURLOPT_POST => true,
  CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => ["Content-Type: application/json"],
  CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => json_encode(["text" => "Summarize this in two sentences."]),
]);
$out = json_decode(curl_exec($ch), true);
curl_close($ch);
echo $out["result"];

Notes

• The endpoint is a normal HTTPS URL — no SDK required.
• Send your input as JSON; read the structured result from the response.
• Add a timeout and check the status code, as shown above.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an SDK to call an AI API in PHP?

No. Any PHP HTTP client works because the endpoint is plain HTTPS + JSON.

How do I change the AI behavior?

Edit the prompt that defines the endpoint. Your PHP code and the request contract stay the same.

Is this production-ready?

Yes — add input validation, a timeout, and error handling (shown above), and you can ship it.
