# OfflineMode

Set `OfflineMode` to `True` to use only a locally cached version of the configured model (and never download an updated version from Hugging Face). In this case, you must have the required models cached in the appropriate place.

NOTE: If Answer Server cannot connect to the internet, it looks for the model in the local cache directory even if you have set `OfflineMode` to `False`.

This parameter has an effect only when Type is set to `Transformer`.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | False
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | MyEmbedding
Example: | `OfflineMode=True`
