How do I call Nvidia NIM for LLM inference?
Short answer: Drop the "Nvidia NIM → Nvidia NIM Chat Completion" action anywhere in your workflow, map the inputs from upstream nodes, and publish.
Inputs
The fields this action accepts.
Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Model model | options | Required | Which model to use |
User Message message | string | Required | Message sent to the model as user role |
System Prompt system_prompt | string | Optional | Optional system instructions |
Temperature temperature | string | Optional | 0-2, higher = more random |
Max Tokens max_tokens | string | Optional | Maximum tokens to generate |
Sample request
{"model": "{{trigger.model}}","message": "Your prompt","system_prompt": "e.g. You are a helpful assistant","temperature": "0.7","max_tokens": "1024"}
Returns
{"id": "chatcmpl_abc","model": "meta/llama-3.3-70b-instruct","usage": {"total_tokens": 60,"prompt_tokens": 10,"completion_tokens": 50},"choices": [{"message": {"role": "assistant","content": "Sample"},"finish_reason": "stop"}]}
Use these fields in downstream nodes for routing, logging, or error handling.

FAQ
Questions about Nvidia NIM Chat Completion.
What does the Nvidia NIM Chat Completion action do in Nvidia NIM?
Runs chat completion against Nvidia-hosted optimised inference for Llama, Mixtral, Nemotron, and other open-source models. OpenAI-compatible shape. For enterprise workflows wanting Nvidia's GPU-optimised inference.
What inputs does Nvidia NIM Chat Completion require?
Required: Model, User Message. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Nvidia NIM returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Nvidia NIM Chat Completion support batch operations?
Yes. Run Nvidia NIM Chat Completion inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Nvidia NIM's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
