How to connect an http request or DeepSeek v3 as a chat model?

Just found a work wround, since DeepSeek uses openAI sdk, you can use it with an OpenAi node and by setting the baseUrl option to https://api.deepseek.com
For credentials, just put your deepseek api key in place of openai api key (n8n should say connection refused but we dont care)
