Installation Method
Docker (docker-compose - recommended)
What is the issue?
I am unable to connect Open Notebook to my separate Docling installation running on my VPS using Coolify. Having 2 instances of Docling running is not an option and I need Docling for other purposes than just Open Notebook.
