Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for any existing and/or related issues.
  • I have searched for any existing and/or related discussions.
  • I have also searched in the CLOSED issues AND CLOSED discussions and found no related items (your issue might already be addressed on the development branch!).
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Docker

Open WebUI Version

0.7.2

Ollama Version (if applicable)

N/A

Operating System

Ubuntu

Browser (if applicable)

N/A

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

Use API key or JWT when using the API.

Actual Behavior

Previously, when using the API, the API key worked in the Authorization: Bearer header. Now, the key throws a "Internal server error" response with the following truncated error in the docker container.

Steps to Reproduce

Use the official documented method to converse with the API, using my API key (not JWT):

$ curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $key" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
      "model": "gpt-4-turbo",
      "messages": [
        {"role": "user", "content": "Provide insights on the historical perspectives covered in the collection."}
      ],
      "files": [
        {"type": "collection", "id": "your-collection-id-here"}
      ]
    }'
 
Internal Server Error

However, if I swap out the API key for my API JWT it works.

per any chance did you upgrade from 0.6.36 or prior to 0.7.2?

Cannot reproduce on my end here.

I don't know what version I upgraded from but I did upgrade. Does this make it a non-issue though? It's still broken here. Most users will be upgrading.

@huornlmj
Yes this makes this a non issue and instead user error. Read the changelog, there was a major change on the .37 version where api key permissions were changed and you need to reconfigure it

and you need to reconfigure it

Could you share info? The documentation as I mentioned hasn't reflected this and still says to use an API key.

Many thanks. That was it - new permissions. I searched all the change logs for "API" and couldn't find anything about it.

Odd that it's throwing a server 500 error though, that sounds server-side, not permissions or authentication / authorization related.

You need to enable user side permissions also.
