![[solved] Using Nextcloud as a directory/folder/remote location](https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/62de996f-0618-457c-b6c7-1db9f2c01c10.png){kind=link}
Hi guys
Is there any way to access Nextcloud files (self hosted) in a file manager just like a regular directory or remote location? So the way iCloud or Dropbox allow you to access files and use them for example to upload them in a browser. So far I only managed to access the files in the Nextcloud WebUI or via the command line (but then a resync is necessary).
Any input is appreciated. Thanks!
I haven’t tried, but you might be able to set up a samba share that points to
/var/www/nextcloud-data/USER/files, just make sure that it uses thewww-datauser.This is way too overkill, simply use WebDAV
Yeah, that will work. It sounds like answer to OPs question, but I have no clue why would someone need that unless there is no client app for that device.
