Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for any existing and/or related issues.
  • I have searched for any existing and/or related discussions.
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Docker

Open WebUI Version

v0.6.34

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Ubuntu 22.04

Browser (if applicable)

No response

Confirmation

  • I have read and followed all instructions in README.md.
  • I am using the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
  • I have included the browser console logs.
  • I have included the Docker container logs.
  • I have provided every relevant configuration, setting, and environment variable used in my setup.
  • I have clearly listed every relevant configuration, custom setting, environment variable, and command-line option that influences my setup (such as Docker Compose overrides, .env values, browser settings, authentication configurations, etc).
  • I have documented step-by-step reproduction instructions that are precise, sequential, and leave nothing to interpretation. My steps:
  • Start with the initial platform/version/OS and dependencies used,
  • Specify exact install/launch/configure commands,
  • List URLs visited, user input (incl. example values/emails/passwords if needed),
  • Describe all options and toggles enabled or changed,
  • Include any files or environmental changes,
  • Identify the expected and actual result at each stage,
  • Ensure any reasonably skilled user can follow and hit the same issue.

Expected Behavior

I was expecting after a response in a new chat for an action button to appear under it.

Actual Behavior

It didn't show that.

Steps to Reproduce

Everything else seems to work fine; I manage to e.g. add custom tools which work.

But adding an action (admin panel > functions); e.g. this openwebui example action code:
https://openwebui.com/f/hub/custom_action

Then I toggle the global switch for that action once saved successfully.

Then refreshed page and started a new chat conversation. Doesn't show button. also tried restarting docker instance (btw keeps my data as expected) and then checking if button appears after response, nothing.

Also not when I create a specific model and there attach that recognized action to it.

I also tried with other-simpler action code but still nothing.

Anyone else also gets this?

Logs & Screenshots
