Originally created by @cpolcino on GitHub (Oct 10, 2024).

Instead of uploading documents from the section “Documents” I click the button + from the chat.

My question is: what open-webui is actually doing?

Option A) embedding the documents and search inside of it with the query

Option B) putting the entire document in the context and trying to answer the question

I am asking this because when I am uploading a document in the chat with the following prompt: What is the content of document? The model answers “ I don’t see any document”

But the document is uploaded in the chat!
