Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched the existing issues and discussions.
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Docker

Open WebUI Version

latest

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Windows 11

Browser (if applicable)

No response

Confirmation

  • I have read and followed all instructions in README.md.
  • I am using the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
  • I have included the browser console logs.
  • I have included the Docker container logs.
  • I have provided every relevant configuration, setting, and environment variable used in my setup.
  • I have clearly listed every relevant configuration, custom setting, environment variable, and command-line option that influences my setup (such as Docker Compose overrides, .env values, browser settings, authentication configurations, etc).
  • I have documented step-by-step reproduction instructions that are precise, sequential, and leave nothing to interpretation. My steps:
  • Start with the initial platform/version/OS and dependencies used,
  • Specify exact install/launch/configure commands,
  • List URLs visited, user input (incl. example values/emails/passwords if needed),
  • Describe all options and toggles enabled or changed,
  • Include any files or environmental changes,
  • Identify the expected and actual result at each stage,
  • Ensure any reasonably skilled user can follow and hit the same issue.

Expected Behavior

I am using openwebui through litellm and things are running fine. I am trying to use gemini 2.5 pro in postman by passing

"tools": [{"googleSearch": {}}]

I am able to search the internet. Is there a way I can set this in openwebui so whenever I am calling this model, it will pass this in request.

Actual Behavior

not able to search the internet.

Steps to Reproduce

use this in litellm config.yaml

  • model_name: gemini-2.5-pro
    litellm_params:
    model: gemini/gemini-2.5-pro
    api_key: "Testingkeyhere"

You have the option to pass custom parameters to each model (see the model parameters like temperature etc. and scroll all the way down). As tools is a special keyword, I'm not sure how this is being handled, though. Maybe it works.

@anirugu you can always enable google search on LiteLLM config as seen here https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/issues/8205#issuecomment-2905003919

It works with Gemini 2.0 Flash, but it fails with Gemini 2.5 Flash or Gemini 2.5 Pro.

Please note that you can set tools using Advanced Params on model, without changes on LiteLLM config.
