Missing Chat History in Google AI Studio

A Quick Tip: Where I Found My Missing Chats in Google AI Studio

I recently ran into a problem in Google AI Studio that I suspect others might be facing too: I couldn't find my recent chat history anywhere in the interface.

After some searching, I serendipitously happened on a link that solved the entire issue:

https://aistudio.google.com/library

This link happily listed out all my recent conversations. It was a huge relief. In case you were looking for your chat history too, now you know where to find it.

What Doesn't Work Anymore

You might have seen suggestions to check your Settings (the gear icon) for an "autosave" option. I was also pointed in this direction. However, after checking, I can confirm that this option doesn't seem to exist in the current interface. It appears to be outdated advice.

How to Save and Access Chats Now

So, if autosave isn't obvious, how do you save your work?

I found that there is a "Save" button located under the three-dots menu (), which you can find above your chat window. This is now the manual way to ensure your conversation is saved.

From what I can tell, the intended workflow is to save your chat, and then access it later through one of two places:

  1. The Library Link: The direct link I found (https://aistudio.google.com/library).
  2. Google Drive: When you save, a "Google AI Studio" folder is created in your Google Drive, and the chat is stored there.

So, I guess we can access our saved chats from the Google Drive folder or from that direct library link, though not directly from the main Google AI Studio chat screen anymore.

I wanted to share this directly because it wasn't obvious, and I hope it helps you avoid the same confusion I went through.
