Upgrade StorageSync attachment with WebDAV
Hi, it seems that syncing attachments via WebDAv is not working together with the Web Library and also not via the API.
I configured WebDAV and I can see my attachments there once uploaded via the desktop client (Linux). In the Web Library however, only the name of the attachment appears and I can not open it there and also not via the API.
The other way round, when I upload an attachment via the Web Library, I can accesss it there, but it is not getting synced to the WebDAV server. Locally on my client I got also only the information about the attachment but it is not accessible.
Maybe this is how it is supposed to be but then WebDAV storage does only make sense when working with desktop clients. Is that true?

dstillmanYes. The whole point of using WebDAV is that you're storing files on your server, not Zotero's, so you can't access them from the web library. If you want to access files via the web library, use Zotero Storage.
