Hey guys; has anyone seen this problem
I’ve been storing images (Camera captures, theme images, file integration) in subfolders inside www. This has been working fine but then I read these files were exposed directly to the internet. This isn’t something I want to do, so attempted to move these files into a dedicated folder.
Whatever I do, I’m unable to browse to any of the images in another chrome window in the new folder
This works
https://MYDUCKDNS:8123/local/doorbell-snapshots/camera.png
This does not
https://MYDUCKDNS:8123/config/bruce/camera.png
If I try Dev Tools / Actions and try to WRITE to one of those folders (For example using Camera Snapshot), I get the following error
Failed to perform the action camera.snapshot. Cannot write config/bruce/camera.png
, no access to path; allowlist_external_dirs
may need to be adjusted in configuration.yaml
The following code passes Dev Tools / YAML (In fact if I change the new lines to a folder that doesn’t exist) and run Dev Tools again it errors so I know the directories are correct
`homeassistant:
allowlist_external_dirs:
- “www/doorbell-snapshots”
- “/config/bruce”
