Generative AI connectors

Important

The OpenAI, Amazon Bedrock, Google Gemini, and AI Connector types are being replaced by Elasticsearch inference endpoints and will be removed entirely in Elastic Stack 10.0 or in January 2028, whichever comes first. To configure access to an LLM provider, create an inference endpoint with the chat_completion task type. For steps that use your own provider account and API key, refer to External inference. To use models that Elastic hosts instead, refer to Elastic Managed LLMs.

Availability of these connector types depends on your deployment and version:

  • Elastic Cloud Serverless projects are autoscaled environments, fully managed by Elastic and available on Elastic Cloud. Availability Deprecated This functionality is deprecated. You can still use it, but it'll be removed in a future Elastic Cloud Serverless update. The Elastic Stack includes Elastic's core products such as Elasticsearch, Kibana, Logstash, and Beats. Availability Planned for deprecation This functionality is planned to be deprecated in a future Elastic Stack update. Subject to changes.

Important

Connecting to LLM providers through a proxy is in technical preview. If you use a proxy, it should support streaming and be SSE-compatible. Elastic only parses streamed responses.

To check if problems are caused by using a proxy, you can test your LLM service without using a proxy.
