Custom properties

Helicone allows you to tag requests with any information you choose to segment, analyze, and visualize by

What are Custom Properties?

Custom Properties allow you to add any additional information to your requests, such as:
  • The session, conversation, or app id
  • The prompt chain by adding a common value to group of requests
  • Application or user metadata making the request

Use Custom Properties to

  • Get the the total cost or latency for a group of requests in a prompt chain
  • Get the "unit economics" of your application, such as the average cost of a conversation or session
  • Slice and dice your requests and metrics by any custom property

Adding Custom Properties

Custom properties are added with headers to your OpenAI requests. For each header,
  • The Key is Helicone-Property-{Name} with your property name in Name
  • The Value is the string value for the property in the request.
