I am running Home assistant on a virtual mahine installed on a Synology Nas. On the the same Nas I have a folder containing music files.
Now I want to add this folder to the media storage of Home assistant. However I get an error “not a valid value for dictionary value @ data[‘type’]. Got ‘nfs’ required key not provided @ data[‘share’]. Got None”
What do I have to add to this ip-address. I tried various options but no luck.
You didnt fill ‘remote share path’. And in ‘Server’ probably is only the IP address
Did not help much:

I faced exactly the same issue with the same error message. I tried several attempts, no success so far. I’m running HA on a dedicated NUC machine, Synology NAS is also separate device. Both are connected to the same LAN.
Asking kindly if anyone may guide me, please?
I am also having the same issue, trying to enable a share to keep backups on my synology DS. The error is:
“Not a valid value for dictionary value @ data[‘type’]. Got ‘nfs’ required key not provided @ data[‘share’]. Got None required key not provided @ data[‘usage’]. Got None”
Does anyone know how the credentials to mount the NFS share need to be specified?
Or how to enable the root account on HAOS in the Synology DSM?
nfs is easy, but gives full access to the complete shared folder on the NAS. I was not able to bring it down to subfolder access.
server
ip address of your nas: for example 192.168.1.11
remote share path:
/volume1/… for example /volume1/music/mysharemusicsubfolder
On your nas go to file services in control panel and enable NFS(all default settings)
then go to Edit of the shared folder in Control Panel and go to the last tab ‘nfs permissions’.
Create a new entry with the ip address of your Homeassistant device. Leave all settings default.
I don’t like that I have to give full access on IP base to the whole Shared Folder. So I want to go with the SAMBA/Windows(CIFS SMB) share, but have not figured out the rights syntax.
Synology resource for getting NFS right:
How_to_access_files_on_Synology_NAS_within_the_local_network_NFS
After long trial and error I found the reason why SAMBA/Windows(CIFS SMB) kept giving me the following errors:

It turned out you have to change the maximum SMB protocol under File Services > SMB/AFP/NFS > Advanced Settings from SMB2 to ‘SMB2 and Large MTU’ minimal. Setting to SMB3 will work as well.
this is on DSM 6.2.x (last 6.2) (waiting for a good reason to go to 7.x)
Although the log shows ‘/’(forward slashes), you have to provide backward slashed and no backward slash in front of the share path;
