Since VLLM assigns a unique identifier to each conversation, is there any way for me to retrieve the chat content corresponding to this unique identifier and archive it
vLLM itself does not assign or manage unique conversation identifiers or store chat content for retrieval or archiving. Conversation history and any unique session IDs must be managed by your client application, not by vLLM’s server or API. The vLLM server simply processes the messages you send and does not persist or expose chat logs or session IDs for later retrieval or archiving purposes. See How is the context (conversation history) maintained during a multi-turn conversation? and Can vLLM handle multi-turn and multi-instance at the same time?.
Would you like more detail on how to implement session management and archiving on the client side?
