MODEL_AUTHENTICATION

Your model provider is denying you access to their service.

Troubleshooting

The following may help resolve this error:

  • Confirm that your API key or other credentials are correct.
  • If you are relying on an environment variable to authenticate, confirm that the variable name is correct and that it has a value set.
    • Note that environment variables can also be set by packages like dotenv.
    • For models, you can try explicitly passing an api_key parameter to rule out any environment variable issues like this:
model = ChatOpenAI(api_key="YOUR_KEY_HERE")
  • If you are using a proxy or other custom endpoint, make sure that your custom provider does not expect an alternative authentication scheme.
