How are you running VectorAdmin?

Docker (local)

What happened?

I have a docker instance of chromadb running on port 8000 which is accessible. When I insert the URL it just says "fetch failed"

Are there known steps to reproduce?

If you are in docker you cannot use localhost since that is a special hostname that loopsback to the container. Use HTTP://host.docker.internal:8000 https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/vector-admin/blob/39fe4a1117a81feaf09a440b79792120964bb4d6/docker/DOCKER.md#connecting-to-a-vector-database
