# load

```python
gradio.load(···)
```

### Description

Constructs a Gradio app automatically from a Hugging Face model/Space repo name or a 3rd-party API provider. Note that if a Space repo is loaded, certain high-level attributes of the Blocks (e.g. custom `css`, `js`, and `head` attributes) will not be loaded.

### Example Usage

```python
import gradio as gr
demo = gr.load("gradio/question-answering", src="spaces")
demo.launch()
```

### Initialization

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
| `name` | `str` | `` | the name of the model (e.g. "google/vit-base-patch16-224") or Space (e.g. "flax-community/spanish-gpt2"). This is the first parameter passed into the `src` function. Can also be formatted as {src}/{repo name} (e.g. "models/google/vit-base-patch16-224") if `src` is not provided. |
| `src` | `Callable[[str, str \| None], Blocks] \| Literal['models', 'spaces', 'huggingface'] \| None` | `None` | function that accepts a string model `name` and a string or None `token` and returns a Gradio app. Alternatively, this parameter takes one of two strings for convenience: "models" (for loading a Hugging Face model through the Inference API) or "spaces" (for loading a Hugging Face Space). If None, uses the prefix of the `name` parameter to determine `src`. |
| `token` | `str \| None` | `None` | optional token that is passed as the second parameter to the `src` function. If not explicitly provided, will use the HF_TOKEN environment variable or fallback to the locally-saved HF token when loading models but not Spaces (when loading Spaces, only provide a token if you are loading a trusted private Space as the token can be read by the Space you are loading). Find your HF tokens here: https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens. |
| `accept_token` | `bool \| LoginButton` | `False` | if True, a Textbox component is first rendered to allow the user to provide a token, which will be used instead of the `token` parameter when calling the loaded model or Space. Can also provide an instance of a gr.LoginButton in the same Blocks scope, which allows the user to login with a Hugging Face account whose token will be used instead of the `token` parameter when calling the loaded model or Space. |
| `provider` | `PROVIDER_T \| None` | `None` | the name of the third-party (non-Hugging Face) providers to use for model inference (e.g. "replicate", "sambanova", "fal-ai", etc). Should be one of the providers supported by `huggingface_hub.InferenceClient`. This parameter is only used when `src` is "models" |
| `kwargs` | `<class 'inspect._empty'>` | `` | additional keyword parameters to pass into the `src` function. If `src` is "models" or "Spaces", these parameters are passed into the `gr.Interface` or `gr.ChatInterface` constructor. |
