Syncthing with External directory on SD Card

Using /e/OS User Queries

Hello, first post here :smile:

I’m trying to setup an automatic folder synchronisation between several devices, including the FP6 i recently acquired. I just added a SanDisk 512 MicroSD Card into the FP6, and everything seems to work as normal (added as external drive).

I would like to sync folders on the SD card (in my case, into the “Music” directory) but when setting up the link in Syncthing, i dont know what to add in the “shared directory path” (“Chemin racine du partage” in french).

If someone who has done this succesfully or knows the directory path of the folders present on the SD card could help, that would be brilliant! Thanks

Hello and welcome Fairphone2026

Mayby you could try installing the TotalCommander filemanager app and navigate to the desired folder on your sdcard. It should show the path somewhere at the top of the ui

Thank you! I installed TotalCommander as suggested and figured out the path of the directory on the SDcard. I Then copy/pasted the path into Syncthing and the sharing now works and is synchronising as i’m typing.

Merci beaucoup!
