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

v0.8.3

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

macOS

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

Title generation works.

Actual Behavior

Title is not generated when using an OpenAI model and the experimental "Responses" API type.

Steps to Reproduce

  • In Settings, set task model to some OpenAI model e.g. gpt-4.1-mini
  • In Settings > Interface, set Title generation "on".
  • In Settings > Connections, set OpenAI API type to "Responses" (experimental)

Create a new chat -> no title generated.

Logs & Screenshots

No errors in the log.

Additional Information

Probably related to #21340

In my case; i don't know what caused this but i'm using new Qwen3.5 model locally (completions api) but title/tag generation is not working either. v0.8.3.
