When does this happen?
IF When using OpenAI GPT-5 series models through LiteLLM, errors occur for unsupported parameters: 'max_tokens' (use 'max_completion_tokens'), non-default 'temperature' (only 1 allowed), and the 'reasoning' parameter (not supported).
How others solved it
THEN Update requests for GPT-5 models to use 'max_completion_tokens' instead of 'max_tokens', set 'temperature' to 1 (the only supported value), and omit the 'reasoning' parameter entirely. Verify model-specific API documentation for correct parameter names and allowed values.
Corrected curl request:
```
curl --request POST \
--url http://localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"model": "openai/gpt-5-mini",
"messages": [{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."}, {"role": "user", "content": "hello in spanish?"}],
"stream": false,
"stream_options": {"include_usage": true},
"max_completion_tokens": 2000,
"temperature": 1
}'
```
Python snippet (paraphrased for license):
```python
response = litellm.completion(
model="openai/gpt-5",
messages=prompt,
max_completion_tokens=100,
temperature=1
)
