## UI Issues

If you're experiencing issues with the LiteLLM Admin UI, please include the following information in addition to the general details above.

### 1. Steps to Reproduce

A clear, step-by-step description of how to trigger the issue (e.g., "Navigate to Settings → Team, click 'Create Team', fill in fields, click submit → error appears").

### 2. LiteLLM Version

The current version of LiteLLM you're running. Check via `litellm --version` or the UI's settings page.

### 3. Architecture & Deployment Setup

Distributed environments are a known source of UI issues. Please describe:

- **Number of LiteLLM instances/replicas** and how they are deployed (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker Compose, ECS)
- **Load balancer** type and configuration (e.g., ALB, Nginx, Cloudflare Tunnel) — include whether sticky sessions are enabled
- **How the UI is accessed** — directly via LiteLLM, through a reverse proxy, or behind an ingress controller
- **Any CDN or caching layers** between the user and the LiteLLM server

### 4. Network Tab Requests

Open your browser's Developer Tools (F12 → Network tab), reproduce the issue, and share:

- The **failing request(s)** — URL, method, status code, and response body
- **Screenshots or HAR export** of the relevant network activity
- Any **CORS or mixed-content errors** shown in the Console tab

### 5. Environment Variables
