Prompting tips for Solar Pro 3
- State the goal, not every step. Solar Pro 3 reasons internally — give it the objective, constraints and success criteria and let it plan the approach; over-scripting each step tends to lower quality. Turn effort up for hard problems.
- Give it real tools. Pass a
tools=[...]schema instead of asking it to "pretend" — let Solar Pro 3 emit tool calls, execute them, and feed results back for the next turn. - Constrain JSON with a schema. Use
response_format/ structured outputs rather than "reply in JSON" to get valid, parseable objects every time. - Cheap enough to batch. Great for high-volume classification, extraction and drafting — template the prompt, batch requests, and validate outputs programmatically.
Tips are derived from Solar Pro 3's actual capabilities — context window, tool & JSON support, modality and price tier — not generic advice.

Migrating to Solar Pro 3
Coming from OpenAI or another gateway? On an OpenAI-compatible setup the only changes are base_url → https://api.datallmlab.com/v1 and model → upstage/solar-pro-3. Messages, streaming, tool calls and the rest of your code stay the same. Routing & failover guide.
Rate limits & reliability
Rate limits here are the DataLLM Lab gateway's, not the upstream vendor's. On 429 (rate limited) or 503 (provider busy), retry with exponential backoff. See the error-code guide and failover setup.
