Problem Description
We are uploading documents into Open WebUI for RAG. We have the documents stored on our company's shared drive, but when uploading the files onto Open WebUI, the files are also stored there, resulting in duplicate files. We only want to analyse the files for RAG, and then remove the original document from Open WebUI.
Desired Solution you'd like
I would like a solution, where you could toggle if you want to store the files themselves when uploading. If toggled to false, then files will be uploaded, analysed, and the removed.
