Groq API always returns 404

Forum
1

For quite some reason, when I do requests to the API, I always get this:

{ error: { message: 'Not Found' } }

Not even the python SDK, or Node.js SDK works.

groq.NotFoundError: Error code: 404 - {'error': {'message': 'Not Found'}}
NotFoundError: 404 {"error":{"message":"Not Found"}}

How can I even fix it?

Even curl doesn't work….

groq-sdk is version 0.27.0

groq python library is version 0.30.0

Hi ​ @Funi , Could you send your trace IDs, if they show up in error logging? Separately I’ll email you to get more information so I can reproduce. Thanks! Jan

Oh one thing to check, if you’re behind a firewall and/or a VPN, the API calls might be blocked. Could you do a simple cUrl call from the same machine to see if you get a response? Could you try using a serverless system like Cloudflare workers to see if you get different results?

Nothing is being blocked, requests go through.

Same issue here. The API worked a few days ago, but now it consistently returns { error: { message: ‘Not Found’ } } .

I tried the api on another device, and it worked. However, when i try to do it on my main device, it still returns {“error”:{“message”:“Not Found”}} Is my IP like, blocked, perhaps? Also, the playground still works. And, the demo at https://groq.com/ still works. Also, if the node.js logs will help, then here they are. NotFoundError: 404 {“error”:{“message”:“Not Found”}}

Hi all, we’re still looking into it, and I might email you for a followup as well.

Appears that its all because of my location….
I have to use a vpn, i guess… theres nothing else i can do Oh well, unless someone finds a solution vpn-less, i will have to use one.

Oh got it — yes we block certain IP ranges and countries like Iran and North Korea from accessing Groq for legal reasons, sorry
