Create Application

Overview

An Application is the foundational unit for managing API Keys and usage on the Wuliang Open AI platform. Each application is an isolated container used to:

• Create and manage a group of API Keys
• Track API call usage and spend under the application
• Isolate and aggregate request logs per application

Create separate applications per business scenario — for example, a Customer Support Chatbot and a Content Generation Tool — to simplify management and cost accounting.

Prerequisites

• A registered Wuliang Open AI account
• Logged in to the console

Steps

Create a new application

1. In the left sidebar, click Applications → My Applications to open the app list page.

2. On the app list page, click the Create App button in the upper-right corner.

   

3. In the Create App dialog, fill in the following fields:

   • App Name (required): a recognizable name such as Customer Support System, 2–50 characters.
   • Description (optional): a brief summary of the app's purpose, useful for later management and team collaboration, up to 200 characters.

4. After confirming the information, click OK to finish.

   

5. Once created, the new application appears in the list with the default status Enabled.

   

Manage application status

Enable / Disable

1. In the app list, find the target application and click the toggle in the Status column.

   

2. Once disabled, all API Keys under the application become unusable until it is re-enabled.

   

Disabling an application does not delete it or its API Keys — it only suspends the call permissions of all keys under it.

Delete

1. In the app list, find the target application and click the Delete button in the Actions column.

   

2. In the confirmation dialog, type the application name to confirm — this prevents accidental deletion.

   

3. Deletion also removes all API Keys under the application and cannot be undone. Proceed with caution.

View basic application info

The app list page shows all applications in a table with the following columns:

Field	Description
App Name	The name you set
App ID	A system-assigned unique identifier
Status	Enabled / Disabled
API Keys	Number of API Keys created under the app
Created At	When the application was created
Actions	Entry points for editing, deleting, and so on

Notes

• Application names don't have to be unique across an account, but using distinguishable names is recommended for easier management.
• Disabling an application takes effect immediately; in-flight requests are not affected, but new requests will be rejected.
• Deletion is irreversible. All API Keys, usage data, and request logs tied to the application are permanently removed.
• Each account has a quota on the number of applications. Contact support if you need the limit raised.
• Create separate applications per business scenario to make usage tracking and cost management easier.
