Expected/desired behavior

Currently chat history is not persisted. In an enterprise environment its critical to provide the ability to review/audit chat history.
Chat with your data repo has this feature: https://github.com/microsoft/sample-app-aoai-chatGPT

It looks like there was a PR 259 related to this, but several months back. I haven't tried it myself but I wonder if the approach is sound or if there's a reason it hasn't been included.

This would be really helpful. Any update ?

We now have a chat history feature that stores it in IndexedDB:

I'll close this issue, but if you want Cosmos DB persistence, please subscribe/star/comment on this issue:
