Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for any existing and/or related issues.
  • I have searched for any existing and/or related discussions.
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Docker

Open WebUI Version

v0.6.28

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Ubuntu 24.04

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

User info headers are sent with the /audio/transcriptions calls, similar to the other endpoints such as /chat/completions or even /audio/speech.

Actual Behavior

No user info headers are added to the endpoint call for STT.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Setup OWUI
  2. Set ENABLE_FORWARD_USER_INFO_HEADERS=true in env
  3. Set up and test STT feature -> no user info headers appended

Logs & Screenshots

Present for /audio/speech:
171021cfa4/backend/open_webui/routers/audio.py (L345)

Not implemented for /audio/transcription:
171021cfa4/backend/open_webui/routers/audio.py (L598)

Additional Information

Thanks for taking a look!
