Issue with configuring Hugging Face credentials for local n8n

Questions
1

Hi there,

I’m trying to use a Hugging Face model in n8n, but I’m unable to set up the credentials successfully.
I obtained my Hugging Face token (which begins with hf_) and pasted it into the API Key field under Hugging Face credentials in n8n. However, when I save it, I receive the error message: “Couldn’t connect with these settings. More details.” Even after clicking the “Retry” button, the same error persists.

I found that others have encountered the same issue when using n8n locally. However, I’m not sure if it’s caused by running n8n on localhost. I’ve tried updating n8n, but the problem persists.

Has anyone encountered this issue or knows how to resolve it?

Yes, many users are reporting this issue.

I also tried the cloud version and encountered the same error, so I believe this is a problem worth reporting. If you have the time, please consider opening a GitHub issue.
