Endpoint.

The Model Catalog consists of popular models which have tuned configurations to work in one-click
deploys. You can filter by name, task, hardware price, and much more.</p> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-fxecmn"><img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huggingface/hf-endpoints-documentation/main/assets/quick_start/2-catalog.png" alt="catalog"></p> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-arciu6">In this example let’s deploy the <a href="https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct" rel="nofollow">meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct</a> model. You can find
it by searching for <code>llama-3.2-3b</code> in the search field and deploy it by clicking the card.</p> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-wb1fz6"><img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huggingface/hf-endpoints-documentation/main/assets/quick_start/3-llama.png" alt="llama"></p> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-1ekjdqo">Next we’ll choose which hardware and deployment settings we’ll go for. Since this is a catalog model, all of the pre-selected options are very good
defaults. So in this case we don’t need to change anything. In case you want a deeper dive on what the different settings mean you can check out
the <a href="./guides/configuration">configuration guide</a>.</p> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-1baa6m9">For this model the Nvidia L4 is the recommended choice. It will be perfect for our testing. Performant but still reasonably priced. Also note that by
default the endpoint will scale down to zero, meaning it will become idle after 1h of inactivity.</p> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-uhpblt">Now all you need to do is click click “Create Endpoint” 🚀</p> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-14nerpn"><img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huggingface/hf-endpoints-documentation/main/assets/quick_start/4-config.png" alt="config"></p> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-1ujocpz">Now our Inference Endpoint is initializing, which usually takes about 3-5 minutes.

ping once the endpoint reaches a running state.</p> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-1fnidty"><img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huggingface/hf-endpoints-documentation/main/assets/quick_start/5-init.png" alt="init"></p>  <h2 class="relative group"><a id="test-your-inference-endpoint" class="header-link block pr-1.5 text-lg no-hover:hidden with-hover:absolute with-hover:p-1.5 with-hover:opacity-0 with-hover:group-hover:opacity-100 with-hover:right-full" href="#test-your-inference-endpoint"><span><svg class="" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" aria-hidden="true" role="img" width="1em" height="1em" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid meet" viewBox="0 0 256 256"><path d="M167.594 88.393a8.001 8.001 0 0 1 0 11.314l-67.882 67.882a8 8 0 1 1-11.314-11.315l67.882-67.881a8.003 8.003 0 0 1 11.314 0zm-28.287 84.86l-28.284 28.284a40 40 0 0 1-56.567-56.567l28.284-28.284a8 8 0 0 0-11.315-11.315l-28.284 28.284a56 56 0 0 0 79.196 79.197l28.285-28.285a8 8 0 1 0-11.315-11.314zM212.852 43.14a56.002 56.002 0 0 0-79.196 0l-28.284 28.284a8 8 0 1 0 11.314 11.314l28.284-28.284a40 40 0 0 1 56.568 56.567l-28.285 28.285a8 8 0 0 0 11.315 11.314l28.284-28.284a56.065 56.065 0 0 0 0-79.196z" fill="currentColor"></path></svg></span></a> <span>Test your Inference Endpoint</span></h2> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-1tao4jb">And then once everything is up and running you’ll be able to see the:</p> <ul data-svelte-h="svelte-1mzij4w"><li><strong>Endpoint URL</strong>: this is what you use to call your endpoint and send requests to it</li> <li><strong>Playground</strong>: a small visual way of quickly testing that the model works</li></ul> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-1qqv7r1"><img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huggingface/hf-endpoints-documentation/main/assets/quick_start/6-done.png" alt="done"></p> <p data-svelte-h="svelte-cb7bxg">From the side of the playground you can also copy + paste a code snippet for calling the model.
