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.

Expected Behavior

API that showing key and JWT Token

Actual Behavior

Hello!
I’ve noticed that the API menu under the user account settings has disappeared in version 0.6.40.
I’m unsure if this is an intentional change or a bug.

Could anyone confirm whether they’re also experiencing this issue?

If it’s a known problem, any guidance on how to restore the menu or alternative ways to access API settings would be greatly appreciated.

Steps to Reproduce

1.Log in to the application.
2.Navigate to the user account settings.
3.Check if the API menu (or related options) is visible.

Logs & Screenshots

@R-omk commented on GitHub (Nov 27, 2025):

how I fix it :

Admin panel -> Enable API Keys -> ON (... again)

Admin panel -> Users -> Groups -> [my group name] -> Permissions -> API Keys -> ON

@Classic298 If you don't have groups, API keys never show up again.

The "admin" user is treated different than a "user". So the default perms do not apply to it.

This is a bug.

@gaby you need to enable the api keys permission in the default user role permission (and of course globally too)

Where is the bug?

@gaby some default user role perms DO apply to admins, like the api keys feature. To allow for fine granulared permission configuration.

Simply create a group, add the admins to it that should have that permission and enable the api keys permission

Sharing to groups was recently also revamped to make it necessary to specifically add admins to groups if the enable admin bypass is disabled
