# Deploying private models through HuggingFace Repos
In order to deploy a Parasail dedicated endpoint for a private model from HuggingFace, you need to follow these steps:
* Make your model private in HuggingFace.
* Go to the settings page of your model.
* At the top of the page, click on the button `Make private`. 
* After the model becomes private, you should see the following: 
* Create a HuggingFace access token with finegrained permissions that only allows access to your private model.
* On the `Access Tokens` page, click on the button `Create new token`.
* Leave token type as `Fine-grained` and write a name for your access token. 
* Scroll down to the section `Repositories permissions`. 
* In the textbox `Search for repos`, type the name of your model (for example `meta-llama/Llama-3.2-1 B`).
* Leave the permission to be `Read access to contents of selected repos`. 
* Click on the button `Create token` at the bottom of the page.
* Copy the access token that is generated.
* Create a dedicated deployment in Parasail.
* Click on the button `Create Dedicated Model` on the Parasail dashboard.
* Copy your model name (for example `meta-llama/Llama-3.2-1 B`) into the textbox `HuggingFace ID / URL`
* Copy your access token to the textbox `HuggingFace Token`. 
* Click on the button `Deploy`.
