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

0.8.11

Ollama Version (if applicable)

n/a

Operating System

debian 13

Browser (if applicable)

chrome

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

Adding a new connection should immediately make its models visible in /api/models

It is visible in /api/models/base, but not visible in /api/models (can see in admin, cannot see to select model to chat)

Actual Behavior

Models are not visible in /api/models

Steps to Reproduce

This is my 3rd connection, my 2nd connection did not have this problem.

Add a 3rd openai-compatible connection, and observe that the models are not visible in /api/models, but they are however visible in /api/models/base.

Originally, I added the connection without the prefix, to make it easier to see that the models are missing, I have added a prefix to the connection "spark"

Repro steps for me:

  • add 3rd openai connection
  • set a prefix spark
  • curl base_url/api/models | jq | grep spark # see no results
  • curl base_url/api/models/base | jq | grep spark # see results
  • curl base_url/api/models | jq | grep spark # see no results

restarting openwebui does not make the models visible

Additional Information

I have only added this third connection tonight, so am unsure if this is a pre-existing problem, or a new regression, etc.

I have an interesting follow up: manually granting and ungranting permission (if it is otherwise permitted for a user) makes it become visible
