Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for any existing and/or related issues.
  • I have searched for any existing and/or related discussions.
  • I have also searched in the CLOSED issues AND CLOSED discussions and found no related items (your issue might already be addressed on the development branch!).
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Git Clone

Open WebUI Version

v0.9.1

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Windows 11

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

When a user selects a knowledge collection via the # command in the chat input and sends a message, the selected knowledge collection should remain attached to the chat after:

  • Switching to another chat and returning
  • Refreshing the browser (F5)
  • Restarting the browser

-> This worked correctly in v0.8.2 and earlier (probablly... as my memory).

Actual Behavior

After selecting a knowledge collection via # and sending a message, the selection is lost when switching chats or reloading the page. The knowledge collection no longer appears as attached to the chat.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open any existing chat (or create a new one)
  2. In the chat input, type # and select a knowledge collection from the suggestion list
  3. Send a message — the knowledge collection appears as attached
  4. Switch to a different chat, then return to the original chat, OR press F5 to reload the browser
  5. Result: The knowledge collection attachment is gone

Logs & Screenshots

No logs but easily to reproduce.
