LibreChat: user_provided API key authentication failure (401) - deepseek

[kihyunnn]

What happened?

Directly inputting the API key into the .env file to create a model works correctly. However, when selecting the Deepseek model as an Agent through the web interface and providing the API key using the user_provided method, a "401 Authentication Failure" error occurs. It appears that the API key provided via the user_provided method is not being properly passed to the Agent.

Version Information

Steps to Reproduce

You are using a model with the API key set to user_provided in the .env file. You create an Agent after pre-entering the API key in the web UI. After that, a 401 authentication failure error occurs when using that Agent (Deepseek model). In other words, the problem occurs when using the Agent after creating it using the user_provided method.

Steps to Reproduce (Modified):

1. Run LibreChat.
2. Create a model with the API key set to user_provided in the .env file.
3. Access the LibreChat interface through the web UI.
4. Create an Agent.
5. When creating the Agent, pre-enter the API key using the user_provided method.
6. Use the created Agent (Deepseek model) to enter a prompt or question and submit it.
7. Verify if a "401 Authentication Failure" error occurs.

Thanks for the report. Add it to the regular endpoint first, then use it via Agents. Someway to add it through agents is still in the works
