How are you running AnythingLLM?
AnythingLLM desktop app
What happened?
Hi,
AnythingLLM desktop app (v1.11.2) on Windows 11 here. When uploading a document through the /v1/document/upload API endpoint, the file is correctly uploaded and embedded (vector count increases), but the document is not actually added to the Workspace. The file appears in the custom-documents folder in the GUI, but does not show up in the Workspace’s document list below. An API call to /v1/workspace/{slug} confirms the documents array is empty:
curl -X 'GET'
'http://localhost:3001/api/v1/workspace/test'
-H 'accept: application/json'
-H 'Authorization: Bearer xxxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxx'
Response:

The problem is not present with AnythingLLM Desktop (Appimage format) v1.11.2 on Linux.
Are there known steps to reproduce?
Open AnythingLLM Desktop application
Navigate to “Developer API” menu to access the API interface
Use the /v1/document/upload endpoint to upload a file to a Workspace
Check the GUI for upload documents: the file appears in custom-documents folder and not below in the Workspace
Check the Workspace: vector counter has increased
@timothycarambat commented on GitHub (Mar 26, 2026):
On the page you got the API key from in the UI you can click a blue
Read the API documentation →link.Open the endpoint

You will want to use
addToWorkspaces@B4ndre4 commented on GitHub (Mar 27, 2026):
I've used addToWorkspaces as follows:
The result is:
But the vector count of testworkbench increased from 0 to 66.
Thanks.
