How do I run chat completion on Hugging Face?
Short answer: Drop the "Hugging Face → Hugging Face Chat Completion" action anywhere in your workflow, map the inputs from upstream nodes, and publish.
Inputs
The fields this action accepts.
Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Model model | options | Required | Which model to use |
User Message message | string | Required | User message to send to the model |
System Prompt system_prompt | string | Optional | Optional system instructions that shape the model's behavior |
Temperature temperature | string | Optional | Sampling temperature (0–2). Higher = more random. |
Max Tokens max_tokens | string | Optional | Maximum tokens to generate in the response |
Top P top_p | string | Optional | Nucleus sampling threshold (0–1) |
Sample request
{"model": "{{trigger.model}}","message": "e.g. Summarize this article in 3 bullets","system_prompt": "e.g. You are a helpful assistant.","temperature": "0.7","max_tokens": "1024"}
Returns
{"id": "chatcmpl-abc123","model": "meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct","usage": {"total_tokens": 60,"prompt_tokens": 10,"completion_tokens": 50},"choices": [{"message": {"role": "assistant","content": "Sample response"},"finish_reason": "stop"}]}
Use these fields in downstream nodes for routing, logging, or error handling.

FAQ
Questions about Hugging Face Chat Completion.
What does the Hugging Face Chat Completion action do in Hugging Face?
Runs chat completion against any text-generation model on Hugging Face Hub that supports the TGI server. OpenAI-compatible message-array shape. Model selection via model ID (e.g., meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct).
What inputs does Hugging Face Chat Completion require?
Required: Model, User Message. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Hugging Face returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Hugging Face Chat Completion support batch operations?
Yes. Run Hugging Face Chat Completion inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Hugging Face's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
