Error Message

All LLM nodes in any workflow (including newly created blank workflows) report the error model not exists, regardless of which model provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) or which specific model is selected. 5. Run the node — the error model not exists appears.

  • Testing in incognito mode yields the same error.

Steps to reproduce

Self Checks

  • This is a bug for Dify Cloud (cloud.dify.ai), not a self-hosted instance.
  • I have searched the existing issues and confirmed this is a new bug.

Describe the bug All LLM nodes in any workflow (including newly created blank workflows) report the error model not exists, regardless of which model provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) or which specific model is selected.

To Reproduce

  1. Log into Dify Cloud (account: [email protected]).
  2. Go to Settings → Model Providers, ensure at least one provider (e.g., OpenAI) has a valid API key configured and models added.
  3. Create a new blank Chatflow or Workflow.
  4. Add an LLM node, select any model from the dropdown.
  5. Run the node — the error model not exists appears.

Expected behavior The LLM node should successfully invoke the selected model and return a response.

Environment

  • Dify Cloud (cloud.dify.ai)
  • Account: [email protected]
  • Issue started: approx. 2026/04/25

Additional context

  • API keys have been verified as valid.
  • All browser site data (LocalStorage, SessionStorage, IndexedDB, Cookies) has been cleared.
  • Testing in incognito mode yields the same error.
  • Deleting and re-adding models has no effect.
  • The issue occurs in all workflows, including new blank ones.
  • Suspect a platform-side model loading or plugin daemon failure.

✔️ Expected Behavior

The LLM node should successfully invoke the selected model and return a response.

❌ Actual Behavior

"model xxx not exists"

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue can be resolved by investigating and fixing the model loading or plugin daemon failure on the Dify Cloud platform.

Guidance

  • Verify the model configuration and API keys for each provider to ensure they are correct and valid.
  • Check the platform's plugin daemon logs for any errors or issues related to model loading.
  • Test the LLM node with different models and providers to isolate the issue.
  • Consider reaching out to the Dify Cloud support team for further assistance, as the issue seems to be platform-side.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to the Dify Cloud platform configuration rather than a code-specific problem.

Notes

The issue may be related to a platform-side configuration or plugin daemon failure, and resolving it may require assistance from the Dify Cloud support team.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Reach out to the Dify Cloud support team for further assistance, as the issue seems to be platform-side and may require their intervention to resolve.
