Configuring "Ask TK" in Yellowbrick Manager (Preview)

This guide describes the steps needed to configure the API endpoints that the Ask TK function in Yellowbrick Manager is allowed to connect to. Only the consumeradmin role can change these endpoints.

To add or remove access to external large language model services in Yellowbrick Manager, navigate to Configuration → Yellowbrick Manager → Ask TK Access. Allowed third-party endpoints are specified as a comma-separated list, for example:

api.openai.com, api.deepseek.com

Note that the entries must be the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) or IP address of the API endpoint. Specifying the domain alone, for example openai.com, will not work. The endpoints must also be compatible with the OpenAI API.

Also note that the FQDN must be accessible from the Yellowbrick Manager server. For example, if you want to connect Yellowbrick Manager to an instance of Ollama running on your local machine, you must ensure that the FQDN or IP address can be reached from Yellowbrick Manager.

Changes must be saved in order to have an effect. Be aware that any changes will require a Yellowbrick Manager restart. This will cause any connections from other users to be terminated. The reason for this is that the new endpoints are stored in a config map in the Kubernetes cluster and a change here will only be picked up during initialization of the Yellowbrick Manager pod.
