Hugging Face Hub Authenticator

Hi, I have a “Credential Configuration” node where I entered the Hugging Face token in the password field and connected this node to an “HF Hub Authenticator.” After running the first node, I expect the Hugging Face API Key box to be filled or filled with that token, but that’s not the case. What am I doing wrong? Does the token have to have specific characteristics? I’d also like to ask: is Hugging Face a valid choice as a free LLM provider for you, or do you recommend alternatives?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Albert0_123 -

What you describe is more or less how it should work:

Maybe you can a post a screenshot showing what you’ve tried?


That’s what I did

Well, you still need to select the “credentials” variable that you created in Credentials Configuration in the drop down of HF Hub Authenticator:

If you click on the down-arrow in the panel on the right, you should be able to select “credentials” and then apply/execute.

Right now you are not telling HF Hub Authenticator node, where to take the API Key from.

May be you can help me here too?

See this thread - there’s a bug we’re aware of with that partccular node:
