Hello everyone, I am working on a project using CrewAI, and I’m trying to access the **`o3-mini` model** using the OpenAI API. I’ve set **`OPENAI_MODEL_NAME=o3-mini`** in my `.env` file, but I keep getting the following error: ```auto OpenAIException - Error code: 404 - {'error': {'message': 'The model `o3-mini` does not exist or you do not have access to it.'}} ``` However, when I switch to **`gpt-4`** or **`gpt-3.5-turbo`** , everything works perfectly. Could anyone share experience on this Thanks in advance for your help! ---

I had the same issue today. I also couldn’t find anything on the website. ---

This works for me… I needed to remove the temperature. To get it working . I use the following in my crew ``` llm = LLM(model="gpt-4o") llm_mini = LLM(model="o3-mini") ``` and set the llm in the crew ``` return Agent( config=self.agents_config['researcher'], verbose=True, allow_delegation=False, #This will drive therest of the agents max_iter=20, llm=llm_mini, ) ``` I am running crewai --version 0.100.0 ---

Save the model as **MODEL=o3-mini** in **.env**. ---

Thanks for working on this and update: I did run crewai -update Replaced model name OPENAI\_MODEL\_NAME=o3-mini )inctead of [gpt-4o] which works works well. Restarted the Terminal but still see the error: LiteLLM.Info: If you need to debug this error, use `litellm.set\_verbose=True’. ERROR:root:LiteLLM call failed: litellm.NotFoundError: OpenAIException - Error code: 404 - {‘error’: {‘message’: ‘The model `o3-mini` does not exist or you do not have access to it.’, ‘type’: ‘invalid\_request\_error’, ‘param’: None, ‘code’: ‘model\_not\_found’}} Can you guide, anything I’m doing incorrect? ---

can you first confirm you have access to the model in the openai api account? also, change the variable name from **OPENAI\_MODEL\_NAME=o3-mini** to **MODEL=o3-mini** if it’s still not working, please share a link to your codebase repo. ---

For those of you running into the error: ```auto Unsupported parameter: 'stop' is not supported with this model ``` This error’s been popping up for both the [`o3`](https://github.com/crewAIInc/crewAI/issues/2738) and [`o4-mini`](https://github.com/crewAIInc/crewAI/issues/2661) models. Give this a whirl for declaring your `LLM`, following [this recommendation](https://github.com/crewAIInc/crewAI/issues/2661#issuecomment-2852393122): ```python from crewai import LLM, Agent o4_mini_llm = LLM( # [...] other LLM configuration parameters additional_drop_params=["stop"] # 👈 ) test_agent = Agent( # [...] other Agent configuration parameters llm=o4_mini_llm ) ``` ---

I ran into this… Looks like the bug is being worked on [[BUG] o3 model support (not o3-mini) · Issue #2738 · crewAIInc/crewAI · GitHub](https://github.com/crewAIInc/crewAI/issues/2738) ---

Hey @Tony_Wood, so [PR #2738](https://github.com/crewAIInc/crewAI/issues/2738) actually got closed once that native LiteLLM solution we were talking about came up. I’m just waiting on [this test](https://github.com/crewAIInc/crewAI/issues/2661#issuecomment-2859064986) with the `o3` model to move along, so we can see for sure if that `additional_drop_params=["stop"]` tweak is actually going to be enough. ---

Hi @maxmoura I just tested with the .119 release and still a problem.. Do you get the same? ``` litellm.exceptions.BadRequestError: litellm.BadRequestError: OpenAIException - Error code: 400 - {'error': {'message': "Unsupported parameter: 'stop' is not supported with this model.", 'type': 'invalid_request_error', 'param': 'stop', 'code': 'unsupported_parameter'}} An error occurred while running the flow: Command '['uv', 'run', 'kickoff']' returned non-zero exit status 1. ``` ---
