Hi @roy-sr , I am not sure I understand the problem

[roy-sr]

Just like we can change the SQLite data folder by setting "DB_PATH" variable, We can also set the Data folder for LanceDB by changing the code as below in "cognee/infrastructure/databases/vector/config.py"

.....

vector_db_url = os.getenv("VECTOR_DB_URL", None)

if vector_db_url is None:
    vector_db_url: str = os.path.join(
        os.path.join(get_absolute_path(".cognee_system"), "databases"), "cognee.lancedb"
    )
