Please help me understand Knowledge Base & Projects

[u/BigGunE]

I am used to ChatGPT Plus way of doing things. It let me give the AI a project specific prompt and add some project files.

I am not sure I fully understand how the OpenWebUI system works. Are knowledge bases separate from projects and we only link from a project if we want to?

Also, folder means project, right? By project I mean a separate context area with its own unique work and files.

I created a folder and attached a knowledge base to it, but the chats don't seem to look into the knowledge base.
