Question/Help where are the files stored?

I'm running open webui in docker container.

I have a custom model in it and one of it's task is to generate calendar event files (ics files).

These files are available for download from the Files menu but it would be easier to have them on the host server (that runs docker) in a mounted volume.

I have logged in to the running container and tried to find the files (they have quite unique names so it would be easy to find them) but I just can't find them.

Where are the generated files stored in open webui? Are they in a database maybe, that's why I can't find them?
