I applied for the access to the model “meta-llama/Llama-2-13b” but received an email telling me that “Your request to access model meta-llama/Llama-2-70b-hf has been accepted”. Obviously, the access I got is not for the model I want.

To test if the license for "meta-llama/Llama-2-70b-hf " also works for “meta-llama/Llama-2-13b”, I tried download both. It turns out to be "meta-llama/Llama-2-70b-hf " is downloadable, but “meta-llama/Llama-2-13b” not.

On the page of “meta-llama/Llama-2-13b”, the application form disappears for me. So there is no way to re-apply accessing the model.

Any suggestions on what to do?

Normally, any problems with the gated model are dealt with between the author and the user, but in this particular case, I think it would be better to have Hugging Face act as an intermediary. This is a slightly unusual case. @meganariley

Hi @fenghao999 You can head to your gated models in your settings here: [Hugging Face – The AI community building the future.](https://huggingface.co/settings/gated-repos). You were given access to Meta’s Llama2 models which include meta-llama/Llama-2-13b - you can click on that link to access the collection.

Hi @meganariley @John6666, thank you both for handling my issue. The problem is solved. Yeah, now I found that I can access all the llama 2 models as @meganariley said. The problem actually was that I was trying to download the original llama-2-13b model, while the one compatible with Huggingface transformer library is llama-2-13b-hf. I should have accessed “meta-llama/Llama-2-13b-hf”. Thank you again!
