Originally created by @SaiCharan878 on GitHub (Jul 1, 2025).

Describe the bug
I'm not getting the expected response when using the Prompts feature (user_prompt, system_prompt, and system_prompt_append) via the API.
For example, when I use the GUI to parse an image and ask it to translate the content into French or Spanish, it works as expected.
However, when I make the same request using the API with similar prompts, it doesn't translate the content as instructed.

@SaiCharan878 What version of the SDK do you have? Have you tried updating?

The option is definitely passed to the API

I cannot reproduce either with your document

@SaiCharan878 sure thats your requirement, but whats your actual installed version? pip show llama-cloud-services or pip show llama-parse ?

Note that llama-parse just re-exports the code from llama-cloud-services. Please see my notebook, try the code yourself, and see if it works

@logan-markewich Thanks for the quick follow-up!

I had previously set llama-parse>=0.4.0, but after your suggestion, I changed the dependency to llama-cloud-services and imported LlamaParse directly from it. That resolved the issue it's now working as expected with the prompt.

Appreciate your help!
