# External mounts
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
External mounts expose files from a provider such as a host directory inside an
|
||
|
|
OxiCloud drive. Enable the feature with `OXICLOUD_ENABLE_EXTERNAL_MOUNTS=true`,
|
||
|
|
then configure mounts from **Administration > External Mounts**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each mount must be attached to a drive. The mount-root is a normal folder in
|
||
|
|
that drive, and access to all provider content is inherited from the drive's
|
||
|
|
membership and roles:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- a mount in a personal drive is visible only to that drive's owner;
|
||
|
|
- a mount in a shared drive is visible to members who can read the drive;
|
||
|
|
- mutations additionally require the corresponding drive permission and are
|
||
|
|
always rejected when the mount is configured as read-only.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Removing a mount deletes only its OxiCloud mount-root and configuration. It does
|
||
|
|
not delete the provider's root directory. Deleting files or folders *inside* a
|
||
|
|
writable mount is permanent because external mounts do not use OxiCloud trash.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Mounts created before drive selection was introduced remain attached to their
|
||
|
|
existing drive, normally the configuring administrator's personal drive. To
|
||
|
|
make one available through a shared drive, remove it and recreate it with that
|
||
|
|
shared drive selected; removing the old mount does not remove host content.
