Local storage on same NAS that NextCloud is hosted

Hello all,

I have NextCloud running fine on my Synology NAS, however I want to be able to download and move files in to a dedicated folder within NextCloud using my Synology environment.

I can access my NextCloud files using the Synology file manager and view whatever I like, however anything moved to NextCloud this way can not be accessed/seen from within NextCloud.

Any ideas?

You need to re-scan to make the files visible from within Nextcloud

Many thanks.

second option: you use the synology cloud sync grafik app to upload the files to your nextcloud folder.

a bit “von hinten durch die brust ins knie” as we say in german but it would work if have to keep folders in sync.
