SSL, HTTP Proxy Security Settings

If you're in an environment using an older TTS bundle, with an older encryption, follow this guide.

LiteLLM uses HTTPX for network requests, unless otherwise specified.

1. Disable SSL verification

SDK

import litellm
litellm.ssl_verify = False

PROXY

litellm_settings:
  ssl_verify: false

Environment Variables

export SSL_VERIFY="False"

2. Lower security settings

SDK

import litellm
litellm.ssl_security_level = 1
litellm.ssl_certificate = "/path/to/certificate.pem"

PROXY

litellm_settings:
  ssl_security_level: 1
  ssl_certificate: "/path/to/certificate.pem"

Environment Variables

export SSL_SECURITY_LEVEL="1"
export SSL_CERTIFICATE="/path/to/certificate.pem"

3. Use HTTP_PROXY environment variable

Both httpx and aiohttp libraries use urllib.request.getproxies from environment variables. Before client initialization, you may set proxy (and optional SSL_CERT_FILE) by setting the environment variables:

SDK

import litellm
litellm.aiohttp_trust_env = True

export HTTPS_PROXY='http://username:password@proxy_uri:port'

PROXY

export HTTPS_PROXY='http://username:password@proxy_uri:port'
export AIOHTTP_TRUST_ENV='True'
