Hello everyone,
im currently training LLMs locally with the Unsloth framework. After training they provide a way to upload your model to the Huggingface Hub.
model.push\_to\_hub\_gguf(
“LuuWee/modelspacename”, # Change hf to your username!
tokenizer,
quantization\_method = [“q4\_k\_m”, “q8\_0”, “q5\_k\_m”,],
token = “hf\_access\_token”,
)
For it to upload you need to add your username and an Accesstoken in the request. This worked for me when i trained in Google Colab. I tried the same thing in my local environment and i got this error.
HfHubHTTPError: 401 Client Error: Unauthorized for url: [https://huggingface.co/api/models/hf/model/preupload/main](https://huggingface.co/api/models/hf/model/preupload/main) (Request ID: Root=1-682c51bd-2d7e194c6c897da00154ebba;4a67b560-fee0-4368-a3e9-a018e79e904b)
Invalid credentials in Authorization header
I was able to login via the huggingface-cli with the same token and i could also do the login via python. But saving the model still throws this error.

There doesn’t seem to be a specific issue on GitHub, so if it’s working on Colab, I think it’s a network problem. There are too many possible causes for a 401 error.

> Hello, I’m trying to create an inference endpoint with a custom docker image using the huggingface\_hub library because the web interface doesn’t allow environment variables to be set. I first log in with huggingface-cli login, then call create\_inference\_endpoint and get a 401 error, then I tried calling login() within the python script in case that would help and got an identical error, shown below. I’ve also tried creating a new access token with the same result, and upgraded huggingface\_hub …

Hmm… If the above method does not work, how about this, for example?
