What breaks when you switch

Qwen3.7 Plus → Qwen Flash
Context: 1M → 262K
max_tokens range · QwenCloud›

With thinking enabled, max_tokens outside 1–32768 returns HTTP 400; use max_completion_tokens to budget reasoning plus answer without that cap.

File is not delivered · QwenCloud / Responses›

PDF input through Responses returns HTTP 200 without delivering the file to the model; use Chat Completions or DashScope.

Smaller values automatically adjusted · QwenCloud›

In Flash thinking mode, temperature below 0.6 is automatically raised to 0.6.

Static YaRN affects shorter texts · Self-hosted›

Static YaRN can hurt short-text performance; change rope_parameters only when longer contexts are required.

tool_choice only supports auto or none · QwenCloud›

With thinking enabled, tool_choice supports only auto or none.

Include the word JSON · QwenCloud›

JSON Object mode requires the word JSON in a system or user message; otherwise the API returns an error.
