I am unable to access any models via the Inference API. All requests return a `404 Not Found` error.

- I have tried multiple models (like `distilgpt2` and `distilbert-base-uncased-finetuned-sst-2-english`).

- I have generated multiple new “Read” access tokens and they all fail.

- My `curl -v` logs show a successful connection, but the server always responds with `404`.

- My username is **suvadip007**.

Can you please check if my account has any restrictions preventing me from using the Inference API? Thank you.

[The Inference API has been revamped](https://huggingface.co/docs/inference-providers/en/index), and its usage, endpoint URL, and [deployed models](https://huggingface.co/models?inference_provider=all&sort=trending) have changed significantly. If you don’t modify your code, you may encounter a 404 error.  
I think `distilbert-base-uncased-finetuned-sst-2-english` has been deployed.
