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

v0.6.14

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Mac OS Sequoia 15.5

Browser (if applicable)

Chrome 137.0.7151.69

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

Google PSE or Brave Search API should work. It was previously working in v0.5

I updated via docker pull, and now I get an error 401 with web searches.

Actual Behavior

No search query generated
Error: HTTP Error 401: {"type":"error","error":{"type":"authentication_error","message":"x-api-key header is required"}}

Steps to Reproduce

Create a google PSE, copy engine id and free json api key into openwebui
try a search, get the error

No search query generated
Error: HTTP Error 401: {"type":"error","error":{"type":"authentication_error","message":"x-api-key header is required"}}

This seems like it has more to do with your Anthropic configuration, keep us updated.
