What would you like to see?

I would like to connect to an Ollama embeddings server with an Auth Token.
I'm already connected to the Ollama server for the LLMs and they work.
When adding the embedder, it shows me the available models,
but when I want to embed with them, I get a 401: Unauthorized.

I'm currnetly using the windows desktop version.

Are you using ollama cloud models, or do you simply have an access token middleware in front of the Ollama instance? Ollama's cli does not have any authentication

@x4x Are you using Ollama Cloud? I don't think their cloud service has any embedding models yet:
