NVIDIA NIM Models API

OpenAI-compatible model catalog endpoint (/v1/models) returning the list of models served by the NIM endpoint or container. Each entry includes id, owned_by, and created timestamp. Used by clients to discover the model name strings to pass to chat-completions / completions / embeddings.

Operations 2

GET /v1/models List Available Models #
GET /v1/models/{model_id} Retrieve A Model #
