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

Other

Open WebUI Version

v0.8.3

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Linux (on AWS Fargate)

Browser (if applicable)

Arc + Safari

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

All tools the user has access to can be selected and deselected from the UI

Actual Behavior

Tools configured with OAuth 2.1 authentication are not appearing in the model selection interface either at system model or workspace models. The tools are still attached to the model and working. They just don't appear in the UI. These were previously showing prior to the last version update.

Tools can be seen in the network call:

[
    {
        "id": "server:mcp:rovo",
        "user_id": "server:mcp:rovo",
        "name": "Atlassian Rovo",
        "meta": {
            "description": "Atlassian Rovo MCP Server for access to confluence, jira, etc",
            "manifest": {}
        },
        "access_grants": [],
        "updated_at": 1771558590,
        "created_at": 1771558590,
        "user": null,
        "authenticated": true
    },
    {
        "id": "server:mcp:context7",
        "user_id": "server:mcp:context7",
        "name": "Context7",
        "meta": {
            "description": "Context7 brings up-to-date, version-specific documentation and code examples directly into your AI coding assistant. That means no more outdated code or hallucinated APIs.",
            "manifest": {}
        },
        "access_grants": [],
        "updated_at": 1771558590,
        "created_at": 1771558590,
        "user": null
    },
]

The can also be seen in the model json:

    "toolIds": [
      "server:mcp:rovo",
      "server:mcp:context7",
    ],

Steps to Reproduce

Install two mcp type external tools.

  1. One using Oauth 2.1.
  2. One using a api token or custom header.
    If both show up add them to a model, then go authenticate it then return and see if it still shows up.

Logs & Screenshots

There are no error messages or logs

Additional Information

I believe for some reason the UI is filtering out tools where the tools shows as authenticated: true
