# Sambanova

> Use Sambanova models with Agno agents.

Sambanova is a platform for providing endpoints for Large Language models. Note that Sambanova currently does not support function calling.

## Authentication

Set your `SAMBANOVA_API_KEY` environment variable. Get your key from [here](https://cloud.sambanova.ai/apis).

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Mac theme={null}
  export SAMBANOVA_API_KEY=***
  ```

  ```bash Windows theme={null}
  setx SAMBANOVA_API_KEY ***
  ```
</CodeGroup>

## Example

Use `Sambanova` with your `Agent`:

<CodeGroup>
  ```python agent.py theme={null}
  from agno.agent import Agent
  from agno.models.sambanova import Sambanova

  agent = Agent(model=Sambanova(), markdown=True)

  # Print the response in the terminal
  agent.print_response("Share a 2 sentence horror story.")

  ```
</CodeGroup>
