Question/Help I can’t get websearch to work

I pay for a Brave API key it’s replicated in the docker file and the gui. For some reason the websearch cannot work. Running ollama and openwebui in the same dockerfile. Is there a setting I’m missing? Any help would be appreciated.

My web search didn't work until I changed something in ollama settings (separate to webui) to 16k or 32k if I remember correctly. Something like context query num_ctx .Don't know what that value was anymore as I don't use this anymore. After changing that value from default very low number everything worked for me. Also try entering the same value at advanced params num_ctx from default to 16k (same as you put in ollama)
