Problem Description

Hi,
I have been looking for a way to download or get files from
/app/backend/data/uploads/
I know there are some endpoints available in open-webui\backend\open_webui\routers\files.py but none of them response when request is made from outside of the container.
I have tested the API key and it is listing models just fine, but when search or get file endpoint is called, it returns html.

When a file is uploaded (pdf or other file not img), is there a way to send its name or content in Pipe request body

  • Trying to download files in n8n for post-processing,
  • Both n8n and Openweb are deployed on Railway

Desired Solution you'd like

Download endpoint,

Alternatives Considered

possible way to get files

Additional Context

No response
