### Request Body

<Tabs>
<TabItem value="params" label="Supported Params">

* `model`

    **Type:** string  
    **Required:** Yes  
    The name of the model to fine-tune

* `custom_llm_provider`

    **Type:** `Literal["azure", "openai", "vertex_ai"]`

    **Required:** Yes
    The name of the model to fine-tune. You can select one of the [**supported providers**](#supported-providers)

* `training_file`

    **Type:** string  
    **Required:** Yes  
    The ID of an uploaded file that contains training data.
    - See **upload file** for how to upload a file.
    - Your dataset must be formatted as a JSONL file.

* `hyperparameters`

    **Type:** object  
    **Required:** No  
    The hyperparameters used for the fine-tuning job.
    > #### Supported `hyperparameters`
    > #### batch_size
    **Type:** string or integer  
    **Required:** No  
    Number of examples in each batch. A larger batch size means that model parameters are updated less frequently, but with lower variance.
    > #### learning_rate_multiplier
    **Type:** string or number  
    **Required:** No  
    Scaling factor for the learning rate. A smaller learning rate may be useful to avoid overfitting.

    > #### n_epochs
    **Type:** string or integer  
    **Required:** No  
    The number of epochs to train the model for. An epoch refers to one full cycle through the training dataset.

* `suffix`
    **Type:** string or null  
    **Required:** No  
    **Default:** null  
    A string of up to 18 characters that will be added to your fine-tuned model name.
    Example: A `suffix` of "custom-model-name" would produce a model name like `ft:gpt-4o-mini:openai:custom-model-name:7p4lURel`.

* `validation_file`
    **Type:** string or null  
    **Required:** No  
    The ID of an uploaded file that contains validation data.
    - If provided, this data is used to generate validation metrics periodically during fine-tuning.


* `integrations`
    **Type:** array or null  
    **Required:** No  
    A list of integrations to enable for your fine-tuning job.

* `seed`
    **Type:** integer or null  
    **Required:** No  
    The seed controls the reproducibility of the job. Passing in the same seed and job parameters should produce the same results, but may differ in rare cases. If a seed is not specified, one will be generated for you.
