i have persistence  
using example similar to this:

> **[AutoTrain API](https://huggingface.co/docs/autotrain/autotrain_api)**
>
> We’re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.

it says that it’s saving the model  
but then i don’t see anything anywhere  
setting push\_to\_hub in the curl json has no effect – it still says push\_to\_hub:false in the logs  
help would be greatly appreciated

if at least i knew where the files were saved in /data that would be a start, but after it runs i don’t see anything in /data anywhere

it ends with:

INFO | 2025-03-22 22:24:34 | autotrain.trainers.clm.utils:post\_training\_steps:416 - Finished training, saving model…

but nothing got saved (at least i don’t see anything in the repo nor on disk)

@ [abhishek](/static-proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscuss.huggingface.co%2Fu%2Fabhishek) would you know?

Anyway, I think AutoTrainAdvanced is acting strangely… @abhishek

> Greetings from the edge of the galaxy—or at least from my Windows 11 rig, where I’m battling an AutoTrain crisis worthy of a sci-fi blockbuster. I’m armed with a write token, PowerShell wizardry, and a dream of training models without the universe imploding, but alas, your API is throwing a 429 Too Many Requests tantrum, followed by a melodramatic “Invalid token” sob story. I’m pretty sure I didn’t sign up for this level of intergalactic drama, so let’s unpack this mess. Here’s the saga in all …
