Where did my Node-Red folder go?

That’s the root of THAT share… /addon_config is its OWN share…

Great! I found it with separate smb share! Thank you!

I then tried to read a user file (mittagskarte.pdf) from inside the addon_configs folder from nodered but did not get it. Any idea?

SOLVED! I have to use the same path as before: /config/… for read and write from nodered, the data will be found in the new folder /addon_configs/…

Thank you!

Good morning,

I have a flow within Node red that takes the flow.json file and emails it to my gmail, for backup. How do I do this with the new folder path?
The error message is Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/addons_config/node-red/2023-11-26T10_38_04_flows.json

I have tried googling and lurking on the forums, but cannot see any answer.
I want to backup just the flows.json automatically each night.

(After multiple tries, I have given up on the whole idea and disabled the flow that backs up the flow.json)
Many thanks.

On my updated system, flow.json is now located here (as seen via ssh):

/addon_configs/a0d7b954_nodered/flow.json

It can be accessed from within node-red using this path:

/config/flow.json

I used the “node-red-contrib-fs” module to compare what I was seeing in SSH vs what is seen from within node-red. I hope this helps someone.
