Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/6205

What is the issue?

On the ollama website, it says that llama 3.1 supports tool calling. But when I am using the curl command, I am getting:

{"error":{"message":"llama3.1 does not support tools","type":"api_error","param":null,"code":null}}

Here is the code that I used:

curl http://localhost:11434/api/chat -d '{
  "model": "llama3.1",
  "messages": [
    {
      "role": "user",
      "content": "What is the weather today in Paris?"
    }
  ],
  "stream": false,
  "tools": [
    {
      "type": "function",
      "function": {
        "name": "get_current_weather",
        "description": "Get the current weather for a location",
        "parameters": {
          "type": "object",
          "properties": {
            "location": {
              "type": "string",
              "description": "The location to get the weather for, e.g. San Francisco, CA"
            },
            "format": {
              "type": "string",
              "description": "The format to return the weather in, e.g. 'celsius' or 'fahrenheit'",
              "enum": ["celsius", "fahrenheit"]
            }
          },
          "required": ["location", "format"]
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}'

@rick-github commented on GitHub (Aug 6, 2024):

llama3.1 was initially made available with a template that didn't support tools. That has been fixed, if you re-pull the model then tool calls should work.
