After finishing the training phase, I want to save the RoBERTa classifier model for later evaluation purpose.

## I am getting this error.

AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last)

I’m not sure where you have gotten that `save_model` method but Transformers model don’t have it. They use `save_pretrained`.

You can use the `from_pretrained` method.

You can find more about model sharing in [Model sharing and uploading — transformers 4.7.0 documentation](https://huggingface.co/transformers/model_sharing.html).
